๐Ÿค– Practical AI for Security - Live Class

The hype is real, but so are the pitfalls.

We're taking a methodical approach to AI augmentation in security operations - understanding where it shines, where it fails, and most importantly, how to leverage it without becoming dependent on it.

You'll Learn:

  • Building AI-augmented workflows that enhance (not replace) your analysis

  • Understanding and exploiting AI vulnerabilities

  • MCP workflows for analysis

  • Understanding the pros AND cons of current AI tools in security contexts

  • Practical prompt engineering for security-specific use cases

Course Details:

  • Format: Live Online

  • Duration: 4 nights, Oct 27 - Oct 30

  • Time: 7-9PM CST each night

  • Alumni Pricing: Available for all Level Effect graduates

This is about augmentation, not automation. We'll teach you to work WITH these tools, not FOR them.

๐ŸŽฏ Alerts to Adversaries - Live Class

From alerts to adversary TTPs - this is advanced SOC operations.

This isn't SOC 101. If you're ready to move beyond basic alert triage and actually hunt threats like you mean it, this is your course.

We're going DEEP on Microsoft Sentinel and advanced security operations. This course bridges the gap between "I can click buttons in a SIEM" and "I understand adversary behavior and can proactively hunt threats."

You'll Learn:

  • Advanced Sentinel deployment and optimization (not just the basics)

  • KQL that actually makes sense (and actually finds bad stuff)

  • Threat hunting methodologies that work in production environments

  • Creating detection rules based on real adversary TTPs

  • Advanced correlation and analytics beyond vendor defaults

  • Building playbooks that security teams will actually use

Why This Matters: Most SOC training teaches you to respond to alerts. We teach you to think like an adversary, hunt like an operator, and leverage Sentinel like it was meant to be used - as a force multiplier, not just an expensive log aggregator.

Course Details:

  • Format: Live Online

  • Duration:

    • Oct 16 - 1-6PM EST

    • Oct 17 - 10-4PM EST

    • Oct 18 - 10-3PM EST

  • Alumni Pricing: Available for all Level Effect graduates
