Kaspersky expands its Expert Training with a new cybersecurity course focusing on digital forensics, aiming to empower InfoSec professionals with crucial skills. This addition to their portfolio comes in response to the increasing duration of cyberattacks and the critical need for faster detection and resolution times in 2023. Addressing the skills shortage in incident response, Kaspersky introduces a comprehensive training program designed to enhance professionals’ abilities in identifying, processing, and analyzing digital evidence.
The ‘Windows Digital Forensics’ course equips participants with foundational knowledge and practical experience in digital forensics, essential for uncovering the development of cyber threats. Participants will learn to gather diverse digital evidence, identify traces of malicious activities, and utilize timestamps from Windows artifacts to reconstruct incident scenarios. The course also covers analysis of browser and email histories, crucial for comprehensive forensic investigations.
Ayman Shaaban, Digital Forensics and Incident Response Group Manager at Kaspersky, spearheaded the development of this training program, leveraging extensive cybersecurity expertise. Participants benefit not only from theoretical insights but also from practical application in a secure virtual lab environment. This hands-on approach ensures proficiency in incident scoping, evidence acquisition, log file analysis, network analysis, creation of Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), and memory forensics.
The course is part of Kaspersky’s broader initiative to bolster incident response capabilities, catering to both individual professionals and organizational teams. It enables participants to customize their learning path, enhancing technical analysis skills critical for effective cybersecurity operations. Companies seeking to fortify their incident response strategies will find this training invaluable in preparing their teams for swift and effective response to cyber threats.
According to Ayman Shaaban, effective cyber-resilience hinges on proactive incident management, including centralized log management and forensic readiness. This course equips participants with essential knowledge to handle, contain, understand, and recover from cyber-attacks promptly, minimizing their impact on operations. Kaspersky’s commitment to advancing cybersecurity education underscores their dedication to fostering a more secure digital landscape globally.
