In this lesson

Prepare for the CySA+ CS0-004 exam (CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+)). In this lesson: standard processes, playbooks, and runbooks, SOAR automation and orchestration, infrastructure as code, enrichment, rule tuning with documented changes, dashboards, APIs, webhooks, and plug-ins, and measuring every improvement. Includes three original practice questions.

Preview the topics
  • Analysts spend twenty minutes on every phishing report, doing the same lookups by hand: sender reputation, link checks, and a search for the same message in other mailboxes. What would improve efficiency the most?
  • The SOC wants new critical SIEM alerts to appear in the team’s chat channel within seconds, without a script that checks for new alerts every five minutes. What should it use?
  • A SIEM rule fires 300 times a day on a scheduled backup job that copies files to a known server, and analysts now ignore it. What is the best fix?
