Description

Learn the Core Concepts Behind Every Security Operations Center - SOC.
Do you want to become a SOC Analyst, but have no idea where to even start? This course gives you the complete conceptual foundation — SIEM, XDR, EDR, NDR, incident response, threat hunting, and more — with no prior security experience required.
This course was created for complete beginners and career changers preparing for an entry-level SOC analyst role and IT professionals who want to understand SOC operations.
This course is concept-first. I won't drop you into a SIEM or XDR console or a lab environment before you understand what you're even looking at. Instead, I'll walk you through exactly how a real Security Operations Center is structured, how an alert moves from detection to resolution, and what each core technology and discipline actually does — so that when you do start hands-on labs, none of the vocabulary or workflow feels unfamiliar, and once you learn the foundation we can continue with practical labs in the upcoming courses - 'Inside the SOC' Series.
You'll get a clear breakdown of the technologies every analyst needs to know: SIEM, XDR, NDR, EDR, firewalls, IDS/IPS, and more — explained in terms of what they actually do and why they matter, not just acronyms to memorize.
Learn the five core disciplines that define this career path: incident response, threat hunting, vulnerability assessment, digital forensics and threat intelligence — what each one is, how they differ, and how they connect to each other in a real SOC.
You'll also learn the frameworks that shape how the entire industry talks about attacks and defense, including the Cyber Kill Chain, MITRE ATT&CK, MITRE D3FEND and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework — vocabulary that shows up constantly in job postings, interviews, and on the job.
The SOC analyst role is one of the most accessible entry points into cybersecurity — but only if you actually understand what you're walking into. This course makes sure you do.
