Zero-Trust Approach to UEBA: Blueprint
RCCE students will learn security operations workflows, alert triage, SIEM management, detection engineering, and threat hunting techniques. RCCE students will learn to operate effectively in a Security Operations Center, reduce alert fatigue through intelligent triage, build high-fidelity detections, conduct proactive threat hunts, and improve mean time to detect and respond across the organization. This zero-trust course applies modern security principles including least privilege, continuous verification, and explicit trust evaluation. Starting from foundational concepts, RCCE students will learn to implement zero-trust architectures that assume breach and verify every access request regardless of network location. Students build practical zero-trust implementations that align with organizational security modernization goals.
