What you'll learn

Traditional security tools often miss sophisticated "living off the land" attacks and zero-day exploits that don't trigger standard alarms. In this course, Google Cloud Professional Security Operations Engineer: Threat Hunting, you’ll gain the ability to proactively hunt for and neutralize hidden threats within your cloud ecosystem. First, you’ll explore the art of hypothesis-driven hunting, learning how to use Google Threat Intelligence (GTI) and Security Command Center (SCC) to predict where attackers might hide. Next, you’ll discover how to execute complex queries across historical logs using Google SecOps and BigQuery to identify Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) and anomalous user behaviors. Finally, you’ll learn how to leverage entity risk scores and retrohunts to automate the detection of patterns that were previously invisible. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Google Cloud security operations needed to protect your organization by finding threats before they become breaches.
