Detection engineering Troubleshooting: 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 diagnostic course focuses on identifying, analyzing, and resolving common failures, misconfigurations, and operational issues. Starting from foundational concepts, RCCE students will learn systematic troubleshooting methodologies that accelerate root-cause analysis and minimize downtime. Students work through realistic break-fix scenarios that build the diagnostic confidence needed for high-pressure production environments.
