Overview of this book

Cybersecurity roles have grown exponentially in the IT industry and an increasing number of organizations have set up security operations centers (SOCs) to monitor and respond to security threats. The 210-255 SECOPS exam is the second of two exams required for the Cisco CCNA Cyber Ops certification. By providing you with fundamental knowledge of SOC events, this certification validates your skills in managing cybersecurity processes such as analyzing threats and malicious activities, conducting security investigations, and using incident playbooks. You'll start by understanding threat analysis and computer forensics, which will help you build the foundation for learning intrusion analysis and incident response principles. The book will then guide you through vocabulary and techniques for analyzing data from the network and previous events. In later chapters, you'll discover how to identify, analyze, correlate, and respond to incidents, including how to communicate technical and inaccessible (non-technical) examples. You'll be able to build on your knowledge as you learn through examples and practice questions, and finally test your knowledge with two mock exams that allow you to put what you’ve learned to the test. By the end of this book, you'll have the skills to confidently pass the SECOPS 210-255 exam and achieve CCNA Cyber Ops certification.

    is often deployed during the reconnaissance phase. Searching Metasploit is commonly linked with the weaponization phase; phishing is normally linked with delivery; and installing a key logger is linked with the installation phase. Each of these can be used for finding out more about the organization or target, but are more commonly associated with other phases.

    Attackers often focus energy on researching an organization's public-facing services (for example, websites) because a flaw in the website might expose a server, which would be in the organization's trusted domain. The website may be at a static IP address, but this is likely to be a public routable address, rather than an internal address. The website may reveal addresses, but this is likely to already be in the public domain. Most cyber attacks occur...
