Detection engineering Incident Response: Blueprint
RCCE students will learn how to build, test, and maintain high-fidelity detection rules across SIEM, EDR, and cloud security platforms. RCCE students will learn to translate threat intelligence and MITRE ATT&CK techniques into detection logic, write detection rules using query languages (SPL, KQL, Sigma), reduce false positive rates through rule tuning, implement detection-as-code workflows, version control detection content, measure detection coverage gaps, and build automated testing pipelines that validate detection rules against simulated attack data before production deployment. This incident response course prepares students to act decisively during security incidents with structured workflows and clear decision frameworks. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn containment, evidence collection, eradication, and recovery procedures specific to this domain. Students practice incident scenarios that build the composure, coordination, and documentation skills essential for effective incident handling.
