Threat hunting Deep Dive

📊 Level: Advanced
⏱️ Duration: 2 Days
🏷️ Track: SOC
📋 Prerequisites: Foundations
🖥️ Mode: Online Instructor-Led
📝 Course Description

RCCE students will learn proactive threat hunting methodologies including hypothesis-driven hunting, data-driven hunting, intelligence-driven hunting, and hunt team operations. RCCE students will learn to develop threat hunting hypotheses based on MITRE ATT&CK techniques, design hunting queries across SIEM, EDR, and network data, identify indicators of compromise and attacker behavioral patterns, distinguish normal from anomalous activity in complex environments, document and share hunting findings, convert successful hunts into automated detections, and build threat hunting programs that continuously improve organizational detection capabilities. This deep-dive course provides comprehensive technical coverage that goes beyond surface-level understanding. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn to master the nuances, edge cases, and advanced configurations that separate competent practitioners from true experts. Students will engage with complex real-world scenarios and gain the depth of knowledge required to troubleshoot difficult situations, mentor junior team members, and make architectural decisions with confidence.
