About this course
This course develops practical capability in Threat Hunting. Its course-specific content covers Hunt planning, Behaviour modelling, Analytical investigation, Hunt outcomes, followed by an applied project focused on test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with Threat Hunting or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Basic computer literacy and a foundational understanding of cybersecurity. Prior experience with the named product helps with the practical exercises.
Test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry
Deliver test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
01Hunt planning
+
- Threat-informed hypotheses and scope
- Required data sources and collection gaps
Practical exerciseApply hunt planning to the test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry and capture the validation evidence.
02Behaviour modelling
+
- Adversary techniques and observable traces
- Baselines and entity relationships
Practical exerciseApply behaviour modelling to the test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry and capture the validation evidence.
03Analytical investigation
+
- Iterative queries and timeline pivots
- Corroboration and alternative explanations
Practical exerciseApply analytical investigation to the test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry and capture the validation evidence.
04Hunt outcomes
+
- Document evidence and confidence limits
- Convert validated behaviour into detection improvements
Practical exerciseApply hunt outcomes to the test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry and capture the validation evidence.
05Applied project: Test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry
+
- Define inputs, assumptions and acceptance criteria for: Test a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry.
- Implement the project using hunt planning, behaviour modelling, analytical investigation, hunt outcomes.
Practical exerciseTest a threat hypothesis against sample telemetry.
06Threat Hunting — validation and review
+
- Demonstrate the completed project against its acceptance criteria.
- Exercise an invalid-input or failure scenario and document the observed result.
Practical exercisepresent the project evidence, limitations and a repeatable handover.
