Most modern IT incidents that involve a security breach typically involve malware, which may be designed to allow the attacker to remotely control the compromised system, spread within the organization, steal sensitive data, or spy on the victim. This pathway course will improve your malware hunting skills by finding and examining key artifacts within the operating system and will teach ways of investigating various properties of malware to help determine the reason for the attack.
Must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident.
Must be a veteran, transitioning service member, first responder, military spouse, or government personnel.
