About the Course

This is the sixth course in the Google Cybersecurity Certificate. These courses will equip you with the skills you need to apply for an entry-level cybersecurity job. You’ll build on your understanding of the topics that were introduced in the fifth Google Cybersecurity Certificate course. In this course, you will focus on incident detection and response. You'll define a security incident and explain the incident response lifecycle, including the roles and responsibilities of incident response teams. You'll analyze and interpret network communications to detect security incidents using packet sniffing tools to capture network traffic. By assessing and analyzing artifacts, you'll explore the incident investigation and response processes and procedures. Additionally, you'll practice using Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Security Information Event Management (SIEM) tools. Google employees who currently work in cybersecurity will guide you through videos, provide hands-on activities and examples that simulate common cybersecurity tasks, and help you build your skills to prepare for jobs. Learners who complete this certificate will be equipped to apply for entry-level cybersecurity roles. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will: - Explain the lifecycle of an incident. - Describe the tools used in documentation, detection, and management of incidents. - Analyze packets to interpret network communications. - Perform artifact investigations to analyze and verify security incidents. - Identify the steps to contain, eradicate, and recover from an incident. - Determine how to read and analyze logs during incident investigation. - Interpret the basic syntax and components of signatures and logs in Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) tools. - Perform queries in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools to investigate an event....

More details and 2 or 3 Alternate approaches to completing tasks to give students better understanding of how Splunk, Chronicle, Suricata and TCP Dump work, would be useful.

I loved this coursed and learned so much. The only thing I would have liked to see is if the all of the SIEM tools were integrated into a lab like many of the other labs are directly in the courses.

The fourth module felt really awful to get through, particularly some of the tasks associated with splunk and chronicle. I believe the cause for why it felt so miserable is due to it not being clear during the lessons that it is more open than any prior assignments. When it says to "Take a look" at something in either splunk or chronicle what it means is to use the skills learned earlier to thoroughly investigate to locate any information of interest within a particular event.

My Suricata and Chronicle interfaces did not look anything like those described in the [optional] activities. Since these are often required skills for jobs, it's important for students to learn how they work

Some material is outdated, and the Chronical sections are not all as in the guide. Otherwise the course material is very high level, and requires independent learning to learn much of value.

Overview of the SEIM tools, and functionality were very generic. Although, I guess that was by design to give a taste of the SEIM tools. I wish it went a little more in depth though.

I feel that more explanation is needed in several concepts through this course. I wish we could have made more lab tests to interiorize new concepts which may be tricky to understand

Great high level introduction to cybersecurity, but the industry does not recognize this certificate in any meaningful way and it has been nearly impossible to find a job.
