Book Description
Cyber threats are more complicated than ever, from zero-day exploits to advanced persistent threats. To keep digital assets safe from a constantly changing attack landscape, there is a huge need for skilled cybersecurity defenders, also known as the blue team.
This book is a step-by-step guide to joining the front lines of defense. You will learn how to run a modern Security Operations Center (SOC) and how to handle incidents by starting with the basics of networking, logging, and security frameworks (NIST, MITRE ATT&CK). Some of the main things to focus on are advanced log analysis using tools like SIEM/SOAR/EDR, hypothesis-driven threat hunting to find hidden enemies, and dealing with serious threats like ransomware and APTs.
By the end of this book, you will have the skills and strategic mindset you need to confidently take on a blue team role, make smart choices, and actively protect your organization’s most important assets.
