MasterClass SOC Analyst Program
The MasterClass SOC Analyst Program includes two courses and two certifications. We have combined the three-day Certified SOC Analyst (CSA) course with the two-day Certified Threat Intelligence (CTIA) course. Master how to Triage and classify incidents as well as how to coordinate Incident handling and response efforts. While our more technical programs like the Certified Ethical Hacker focus on the tactical Cyber Security elements you commonly see with a threat hunter, or SOC level 2 and 3 roles, our SOC analyst course is a great entry point to establish common definitions across the entire SOC team from entry level analysts to managers.

Certifed SOC Analyst
The CSA program is the first step to joining a security operations center (SOC). It is engineered for current and aspiring SOC analysts to achieve proficiency in performing entry-level and intermediate-level operations. The program focuses on creating new career opportunities through extensive, meticulous knowledge with enhanced capabilities for dynamically contributing to a SOC team.
Certifed Threat Intelligence Analyst
The CTIA course provides a threat intelligence deep dive to further round out the MasterClass Soc Analyst program. The CTIA is a method-driven program that uses a holistic approach, covering concepts from planning the threat intelligence project to building a report to disseminating threat intelligence. These concepts are highly essential while building effective threat intelligence and, when used properly, can secure organizations from future threats or attacks.
MasterClass combines these two programs to prepare you to hunt for threats, respond to vulnerabilities, handle incidents, and contribute to a security team with outstanding skills.
