Overview

Off the shelf (OTS)

SEC555: Detection Engineering and SIEM Analytics is a hands-on detection engineering training course that teaches students how to design proactive detection strategies and effectively manage SIEM platforms. Through real-world labs and in-depth analysis, participants learn to interpret logs, craft high-quality detection rules, and uncover hidden threats in both cloud and on-premises environments. Whether you're new to detection engineering or looking to sharpen your skills, this course prepares you to extract meaningful insights from complex data and build a more responsive, intelligence-driven Security Operations Center (SOC). It also serves as a valuable preparation path for the GCDA certification (GIAC Certified Detection Analyst), which validates advanced capabilities in detection engineering and data-driven defence.

Successful completion of this course requires access an external online assessment. The online assessment platform may not be accessible from Civil Service department IT due to security restrictions.
