OffSec’s Foundational Threat Hunting (TH-200) course provides cybersecurity professionals with the knowledge and practical skills required to identify and respond to attacks. This course covers the principles of threat hunting, as well as the tactics that firms use to identify and neutralize threats. Important topics covered include the use of network and endpoint Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) for proactive threat detection, as well as understanding the threat actor landscape, with a focus on ransomware and Advanced Persistent Threats.
After passing the challenging practical test, participants receive the OSTH-OffSec threat hunting certification. This certification demonstrates knowledge of fundamental threat hunting methodologies, making qualified workers an invaluable asset for employment in incident response, SOC analysis, and threat hunting teams.
