Developed by Kaspersky Security Services experts, the revamped course combines in-depth video lectures with hands-on lab simulations designed to boost security teams’ detection and investigation capabilities in real-world scenarios.
Modern organizations face highly sophisticated cyber threats capable of bypassing automated defenses and remaining undetected for extended periods. Cyber threat hunting is a discipline developed to address these challenges by enabling security teams to identify malicious activity before it escalates into a major breach and seriously affect business processes.
The newly updated Kaspersky training course helps corporate defenders build expertise in this highly sought-after field, directly tackling the industry's biggest talent challenge: the gap between professional certification and real-world practical skills.
Designed for SOC specialists, the Threat Hunting course[1] has already become one of Kaspersky’s most popular expert training programs. The new release equips learners with in-depth knowledge and practical skills reflecting the evolving threat landscape and the latest expert insights.
The expanded syllabus features 30 new video lessons covering threat hunting as an analytical process, the use of MITRE ATT&CK as a behavioral framework, and multiple hunting approaches, including TTP-based, IOC-based, and anomaly-based techniques. Within preconfigured virtual labs, learners will master threat hunting across Windows, Linux and network environments, applying their newly acquired skills to simulated scenarios such as:
- Suspected Targeted Intrusion in Financial Sector Environment
- Suspected Web Server Compromise in Logistics Sector Environment
- Suspected CI/CD Infrastructure Breach and Supply Chain Tampering
- Intelligence-Driven Hunt Based on External Threat Report
- Behavioral Deviation on a Workstation
"This course condenses Kaspersky’s vast internal knowledge and frontline incident handling expertise to equip security specialists with tactical threat hunting capabilities. For businesses, it serves as a direct investment in cultivating elite in-house security talent to follow modern practices of security operations. Armed with this expertise, professionals can effectively identify, investigate and reveal new threats, significantly increasing their organization’s cyber resilience,” says Roman Nazarov, Head of Kaspersky SOC Consulting at Kaspersky.
