Ethical Hacking & Incident Response
As future cybersecurity analysts, bootcampers must
understand cyber warfare’s offensive methodologies. In
Ethical Hacking, participants will learn how to perform
cyber-attacks, providing them insights into cyber
defense best practices, vulnerability assessments,
forensics, and incident response processes. In Incident
Response, bootcampers will learn the relevant response
methodologies used once an attack has occurred. They
will overview identifying cybersecurity breaches, insider/
outsider threats, incident response life cycles, performing
relevant assessments, and developing protection plans.
Topics Covered:
- Hacking, Ethical Hacking and the Penetration Testing
Frameworks - Ethical Hacking Phases: Reconnaissance, Scanning,
Obtaining Access, Maintaining Access, CoveringTracks, and The Cyber Kill Chain. - Network Hacking – Metasploit Framework
- Web Application Hacking – OWASP Top 10 – XSS, SQL
Injection, Manual and Automated Attacks - Post-Incident Activities
Capture the Flag Challenge
TOOLS: Metasploit, SQLMap, Nmap, OSINT Framework,
CUPP, Hydra, Recon-ng, Burp Suite
