Practical Use Cases for New/Existing Deployments
Each section was carefully designed based on all of my experience working as a Senior Threat Detection engineer for fortune-500 and for MSSPs. This is the ONLY course with a detailed, in-depth practical use cases section, which will show you common problems that administrators are facing throughout the world. I developed this section based on my endless hours of trial & error and independent research, so I hope all of you can learn very useful things in the course, regardless of skill level!
