CyberSec First Responder – Advanced (CFR-A)
This course takes cybersecurity practice to the next level. It is an advanced experience that builds upon the defensive skills and knowledge taught by the CyberSec First Responder® (Exam CFR-410) course. It is an applied experience in that it almost entirely consists of hands-on exercises featuring many different tools and environments. The ""A"" in CFR-A can also refer to the cybersecurity modes this course is built around: Attack: Simulating attacks on computing assets to test security measures and learn more about threat vectors. Analyze: Identifying, detecting, and assessing threats to learn more about how they operate and how they affect security. Address: Implementing countermeasures and other protections to mitigate the impact of threats to security.
