Cyber Kill Chain Workshop

Course Overview

Deep dive into how attackers operate from initial reconnaissance through data exfiltration. Students learn to identify and disrupt each phase of the attack chain using real-world scenarios based on actual operations.

This workshop includes hands-on labs where students defend against simulated advanced persistent threats, learning to recognize attacker behavior patterns and implement effective countermeasures.
