Modern organizations rely on Security Operations Center (SOC) teams to vigilantly watch security systems, rapidly detect breaches, and respond quickly and effectively. To succeed, SOCs desperately need more qualified cybersecurity professionals.

It demonstrates their knowledge about creating, operating, and working within computer security incident response teams (CSIRTs) and product security incident response teams (PSIRTs); the incident response lifecycle, and cyber forensics.
