Duration

3 Days

Course Overview

This course provides an in-depth understanding of how to integrate Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) into incident response and digital forensics workflows to enhance threat mitigation. Participants will learn to leverage CTI data to detect, analyze, and respond to incidents effectively while using forensic techniques to uncover critical evidence. Hands-on labs and case studies will provide practical experience in combining CTI with incident response and forensics to strengthen organizational security.

Format of Training

  • Interactive instructor-led sessions.
  • Hands-on labs with CTI tools and forensic techniques.
  • Real-world case studies and incident scenarios.
  • Access to tools and frameworks for CTI and forensics integration.

Course Objectives

  1. Understand the role of CTI in incident response and digital forensics.
  2. Use CTI data to detect and analyze security incidents.
  3. Perform forensic investigations to uncover evidence and determine root causes.
  4. Correlate CTI insights with forensic findings to build a comprehensive threat picture.
  5. Leverage tools like MITRE ATT&CK, STIX/TAXII, and forensic analysis platforms.
  6. Develop actionable recommendations for mitigating future threats.
  7. Apply best practices for integrating CTI into incident response and forensics.
