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....

Very Informative and now i am certain i want to do this type of work. I want to protect everyone's data and privacy. Hopefully automated so we dont have to manually go through confidential data.

I would have given 5 stars but I expected more hands on with SPLUNK and CHRONICLE but it was just brief overview so I don't feel confident in including it in my resume. CHRONICLE link was not even working due to some issue - might be best to check that out too. Had to skip it because of that. Other than these, it was great.

It didn't flow as smoothly as the other courses and the videos of the main presenter were dubbed on the lower volume spectrum. Overall, another good course in the Google arsenal as I progress through this learning journey.

I really loved this the only addition I would recommend would be going in depth in understanding logs and traffic and whats actually happening..This is covered but not as good as it could be however, amazing lesson!!

I think a little more in depth training on (tcpdump-wireshark-splunk-chronicle) perhaps even with some real life data. It's one thing to capture data but interpreting it is a totally different skill.

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 sound for the main videos was very low. Even with max volume I had trouble hearing. I didn't have this problem with the other courses in this certificate. Great content though!

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.

Some of the later labs are missing steps for Splunk and Chronicle. Specifically on Chronicle it is missing a step telling the user to use legacy viewing mode.

just a few improvements that should be made, some parts confused me of not knowing what is being asked of me. Other than that, it's an excellent course.

some of the knowledge quiz questions are just an eyesore, it doesn't really help me understand the material, rather just created more confusion.

Excellent course. The only thing I would change would be to give more lab time to learn the SIEM tools since these are not easy to learn.

The training on Chronicle was lacking on details that would help a person successfully answer each of the required questions.
