Build evidence before your first SOC interview.
Getting into a SOC role is hard when your experience is limited to videos and practice questions. SOC Analyst Prep Labs puts you inside a live Splunk environment to investigate alerts, analyze logs, enrich evidence, and write up what happened.
$249 includes 90 lessons across 12 topics, lifetime access to the course, 12 months of live Splunk lab access, and unlimited attempts on included practice exams.
How you build experience here
- Investigate live and structured activity. Work from a coherent incident scenario in Splunk, then use a live telemetry feed from an internet-facing authorized lab target to practice finding and interpreting attacker activity.
- Create activity, then investigate it. Generate authorized traffic against the lab target and watch it appear in the SIEM. Then switch perspectives and triage the evidence.
- Trace an intrusion end to end. Follow recon, phishing, execution, persistence, credential theft, lateral movement, command and control, exfiltration, and ransomware through network, endpoint, and log evidence.
- Work with packets, not just screenshots. Download PCAPs and use Wireshark to examine the evidence behind the alert.
What you get
- 90 hands-on lessons across 12 topics. Learn SOC fundamentals, Splunk, log and network analysis, phishing analysis, incident response, endpoint detection, vulnerability management, compliance, and threat hunting.
- 12 months of live Splunk lab access. Your lab is included with enrollment and can be extended for $99 per year or $19.99 per month after the initial period.
- Hands-on work in every topic. Practice alert triage, timeline reconstruction, threat-intelligence enrichment, dashboard building, endpoint forensics, and threat hunting.
- Downloadable PCAPs and a full incident report. Complete the investigation and document your conclusion.
- Lifetime access to the course. Keep the course material and future course updates after your lab-access term ends.
Practice exams included
Your enrollment includes practice exams for CySA+, CC, SSCP, and Security+.
Unlimited attempts. Randomized questions. Use your results to see which objectives to revisit while you build hands-on skill.
