Course Overview:
TechNow has worked worldwide enterprise infrastructures for over 30 years and has developed demos and labs to exemplify the techniques required to demonstrate technologies that effectively support CTI. This course integrates well with our courses TN-575: Open Source Network Security Monitoring and TN-865: Wireshark Network Traffic and Security Analysis .
TechNow develops Cyber Ranges and makes them available for conferences in support of annual meetings for Cyber Threat Response Teams. Developing scenarios and reacting to them appropriately is a big part of the value in understanding the contexts required to comprehend valuable CTI. As with many advanced TechNow security courses, there is a large hands-on ratio. This course helps Cyber Protection Teams (CPT), Defensive Cyber Operations (DCO), and Mission Defense Teams (MDT) to collect, analyze and apply targeted cyber intelligence to defensive operations in order to proactively act on and tune response to attacks by cyber adversaries. CPT, DCO, and MDT can take preemptive action by utilizing CTI, understanding CTI tools, techniques and procedures (TTPs) needed to generate and consume timely and relevant intelligence to improve resilience and prevention.
This course focuses on the collection, classification, and exploitation of knowledge about adversaries and their TTPs. . MDT puts us close the mission and helps define the internal context to be analyzed against the CTI. TechNow pushes the student to truly understand how to think about and use CTI to make a difference.
Attendees to TN-905: Cyber Threat Intelligence Analysis will receive TechNow approved course materials and expert instruction.

Instructor comments: While I could tell the instructor was very knowledgeable, his instructions were not very clear. He could've done a better job preparing for the class.
Facilities comments: Room was fine. The location of the room could have been better as the dings from the elevator were a bit distractive.
User: TracyPaul
Instructor comments: Very knowledgeable. Diagnosed our programming problems in short order. Could go into the details of 'why', versus only the 'how'.
Facilities comments: Outstanding. The hotel staff did a great job supporting our class.
