The attacks continue to change and most organizations still don't have the capabilities to detect the basic attacks. Adversarial simulation relies on attacks that are designed to maintain persistence and gain access to the data needed. This course focuses on the latest attack techniques giving penetration testers the ability to learn the new techniques but also focuses on teaching how to best defend against the attacks. The term hunt team focuses on taking a proactive approach in assuming an environment is already compromised. This course will cover both red and blue team efforts and provide methods for understanding how to best detect threats in an enterprise.
This course is completely hands on!
At the end of day 1 - you will be attacking a fully simulated network and performing offensive capabilities against our trainers who have to defend! At the end of day 2 - you will be defending while our trainers go on the offense while you try to stop and detect the attacks.
This course applies real-world offense and defense capabilities to truly paint the full picture of understanding how attacks happen today and how to best prevent them.
This course is brand new and the first time we've ever given it. The course is completely fresh and contains all of the latest pentester methods as well as unreleased methods for detecting attacks.
