Certified Cybercrime Investigator Training

  • Learn via: Classroom
  • Duration: 5 Days
  • Level: Fundamentals
  • Price: From €4,199+VAT

Over this five-day National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) assured course, learners will develop the skills to monitor networks, detect and respond to an attack, and handle incidents and threats effectively. The course covers how to correlate threats, perform threat hunting, acquire evidence, and conduct forensic investigation to reconstruct attacks. Learners will also be introduced to the key tools and techniques used in attack analysis, equipping them with practical skills to investigate malicious programs and adversary activity. Through a blend of theory, practical exercises, and hands-on labs, the course provides the skills required to build strong defensive and attack ready capabilities.
