Cyber Security Analyst Course in Hyderabad

What a Cyber Security Analyst Does

The title covers several jobs. Most people who hold it work in or beside a security operations center: they read alerts from monitoring tools, decide which are real, investigate what happened and escalate or respond. Adverts for the same work also say SOC analyst, security analyst or information security analyst.

It is different from penetration testing, where you attack systems with permission to find weaknesses. If that is what you want, see the penetration testing course.

What You Learn, Module by Module

The SOC Analyst and DFIR course (HTA-103) is 90 guided hours:

• Cybersecurity and network defense fundamentals (10 hours). The base everything else stands on.
• SOC operations and log sources (10 hours). What a SOC collects and why.
• SIEM investigation with Splunk and Microsoft Sentinel (12 hours). Searching logs to answer a question.
• Endpoint monitoring, EDR and threat intelligence (8 hours).
• Alert triage, detection engineering and threat hunting (12 hours). Deciding what is real, and writing detections.
• Incident handling and response (10 hours). From first response to the incident report.
• Digital forensics and malware analysis (14 hours). Disk and memory evidence, and extracting indicators.
• AI in the SOC (4 hours).
• Capstone incident simulation (10 hours). A timed, multi-alert exercise that you write up and defend.

Tools You Work With

Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Wazuh, Sysmon, Sigma, Wireshark, Autopsy and Volatility. You do not need to know any of them beforehand. Our guides to Splunk searches, Wazuh and Windows event IDs show the level the course starts from.

How a Class Runs

Classes are three hours a day, Monday to Friday, or four hours on the weekend batch. The first half is supervised practice on the previous class, with the trainer checking your work; the second half is live teaching, when the trainer shows the next technique. The course ends with a graded report and a technical oral exam, so you leave with something to show an employer.

Who It Suits

• Final-year students and fresh graduates from any branch who are comfortable using a computer
• Support, system and network staff moving into security
• Career changers from non-IT work; read switching from a non-IT background first
