Course Description

A practical take on Lockheed Martin Cyber Kill Chain™, The course simulates an example target attack following the 7 phases of the Cyber Kill Chain™. Starting with reconnaissance utilizing online resources to research the target then use the information in weaponization and deliver to create a payload and deliver it to the target to exploit the target and install it and gain control on the target to action the objective of the attack. The course then utilizes the knowledge gained to design a defense in depth model using the Cyber Kill Chain™ to detect, deny, disrupt, degrade, deceive and contain the attack at each phase of the 7 phases of the Cyber Kill Chain™.

Instructor
Abdulrahman Alnaim

My name is Abdulrahman “Abdul” Alnaim, I hold a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the American University, Washington, D.C. Over my tenure in Cybersecurity I was heavily involved in Awareness, Behavior Management and Cybersecurity Training. I moved to working in Security Operations then penetration testing and applications security. After that I worked in Governance Risk and Compliance. I currently work as Security Operations Manager in-charge of overseeing security monitoring, digital forensics and incident response along with other operations such as vulnerability management and penetration testing.

Cybrary is one of the best resources I use to learn and remain on-top of current technologies in Cybersecurity. I think its only fair to give back to Cybrary community by sharing my experience and knowledge for others to gain the required knowledge to excel in Cybersecurity.
