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.

This was the most boring and most difficult Course. :( Often, the questions in the quizzes were unclear. It felt very different from the other courses in this program.

There are so many contents repeated from previous courses. Prolonged content to have 4 courses. So many hands on activities rather than quizzes.

Presenter was good. But the parts of the course we should be concentrating on - using SIEM, etc. were just rushed through. Disappointing.

Please make adjustments for those who have learning disabilities. I am not diagnosed with one but after doing this course, I think i might have one lol Very overwhelming the amount of information that is included. Maybe have an option for slower learners were you split it up more because all of the other course were phenomenal this one was just frustrating seriously

This module took me forever. Just so incredibly hard to get motivated with the monotone lectures. The information was just fine and easy to understand, but I'm sorry to say that the person you chose for the lectures was the wrong one.

The instructions for The Splunk lab isn't up to date. There's a field in the uploading data section that's not in the instructions provided and you can't continue without completing that field which caused a hard stop in the lab.

course is not effectively written. would like more walkthroughs and comments on specific languages and queries used within different programs instead of fleeting comments

I am honestly struggling with this cybersecurity course and have been since August. I was planning on being completed with the entire thing by now, but am still on the 6th portion of the course. It is unbearably boring and I cannot grasp and retain the info. Do you have any suggestions?
