(MENAFN- Market Press Release) November 30, 2025 5:15 am - InfosecTrain Hosts 4-Day Ultimate SOC Analyst Fast-Track Bootcamp

What
InfosecTrain, a leading cybersecurity training provider, is hosting a 4-Day Ultimate SOC Analyst Fast-Track Bootcamp. This bootcamp will provide a structured understanding of how Security Operations Centers operate and manage cyber threats. The program will begin with cybersecurity foundations, covering key distinctions between information security, IT security, and cybersecurity, along with principles like confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Through real-world breach examples, it will explain why SOCs have evolved and introduce SOC structure across Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 roles, along with their responsibilities and core objectives. It will then explore SOC processes and frameworks such as the People-Process-Technology model and the MITRE ATT&CK framework, followed by an overview of essential SOC tools like SIEM, EDR, and SOAR.

The bootcamp will further focus on log and event analysis, correlation concepts, and network visibility using Wireshark, along with identifying Indicators of Compromise. It will include threat intelligence fundamentals, types of intelligence, threat feeds, and the Cyber Kill Chain. Additional sessions will cover digital forensics fundamentals, incident handling using the NIST lifecycle, severity classification, escalation flow, vulnerability assessment basics, and investigation examples using tools.

Why Attend
Attending this bootcamp will offer a rare opportunity to gain practical, real-world exposure to how cybersecurity incidents are detected, analyzed, and handled in professional environments. Rather than learning theory in isolation, participants will work directly with tools and investigation techniques used daily by SOC teams, helping them build the mindset and analytical approach needed to respond effectively to threats. The sessions will simulate the workflow of an actual SOC, starting from recognizing suspicious activity, validating alerts, investigating evidence, and escalating incidents, providing a realistic preview of what the role entails. The program will also help attendees develop confidence in working with security data, understanding patterns, and making informed decisions during high-pressure situations. For those exploring cybersecurity careers, it will clarify how different SOC roles function and what skills are required to progress. Whether someone is starting their journey or transitioning from another IT field, the bootcamp will equip them with clarity, hands-on exposure, and industry-relevant direction to grow in the cybersecurity domain.
