Cyber School WOAC- Advanced Protocol Analysis/ Advanced Digital Forensics
Â
Advanced Protocol Analysis
Learning Outcome: Given complex network traffic, the student will discern between benign and malicious network activity within more than 75% of the network traffic:
1) Identify multiple protocols within network traffic and identify advanced tunneling methods
2) Understanding of advanced encryption methodologies and secure protocols
3) Understanding of intrusion detection \ prevention system signature development based on traffic analysis
4) Perform filtering and cutting of network traffic
5) Perform deep packet analysis and diagram network traffic with timeline analysis
6) Integrate knowledge of threat tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) into advanced network analysis
7) Develop advanced tunneling methods
8) Develop advanced intrusion detection \ prevention system signatures and heuristic analysis development
9) Develop advanced encryption methodologies and secure protocols

Advanced Digital Forensics
Â
Learning Outcome: Given a disk image, memory image, and captured network traffic activity, the student will compose a written assessment of malicious activity:
1) Comprehend forensic evidence collection with volatile and non-volatile data.
2) Understand different forensics tool suites such as FTK, Encase, Magnet Axiom, or Autopsy.
3) Understand browser and email artifact analysis
4) Assess advanced memory analysis with Linux and Windows Systems
5) Assess advance malware purposes, techniques, and construction
6) Assess mid-level malware changes to systems and networks
7) Comprehend advanced file and process signatures
8) Validate forensic evidence collection
9) Integrate knowledge of threat tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) into advanced memory analysis
10) Correlate multiple sources of data into a holistic timeline
11) Develop advanced file and process search capabilities
12) Present analysis of forensic conclusions in operator notes and executive reports.
13) Understand forensic analysis with enterprise platforms like Tanium, Endgame, Carbon Black, or Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platforms.
