🏷️ Track: SOC
📋 Prerequisites: Foundations
🖥️ Mode: Online Instructor-Led
📝 Course Description

RCCE students will learn security alert triage methodologies including alert classification, prioritization, enrichment, escalation, and resolution workflows. RCCE students will learn to evaluate incoming security alerts for severity and legitimacy, apply triage frameworks to consistently classify alerts, enrich alerts with contextual data from threat intelligence and asset databases, distinguish true positives from false positives, make escalation decisions based on defined criteria, document triage findings, reduce alert fatigue through improved triage processes, and measure triage effectiveness using metrics like mean time to triage and false positive rates. This practice-intensive course emphasizes applied skills through lab exercises, real-world scenarios, and production-realistic workflows. Building on core knowledge, RCCE students will learn by doing, building muscle memory and practical confidence through repeated hands-on engagement. Students complete exercises that mirror actual workplace tasks, ensuring skills transfer directly to their professional roles.
