CFR: Reconnaissance, Attack, and Post-Attack Analysis
In this course, you'll continue developing your cybersecurity practitioner skills by implementing threat modeling and assessing the impact of reconnaissance and social engineering. Then, you'll assess the impact of a variety of different attack categories—system hacking attacks, web-based attacks, malware, hijacking and impersonation, denial-of-service (DoS) incidents, threats to mobile security, and threats to cloud security. You'll also analyze post-attack techniques like command and control (C2), persistence, lateral movement and pivoting, data exfiltration, and anti-forensics. This is the
