Cybersecurity

— Advanced Level Roadmap

Module 1: Advanced Ethical Hacking & Exploitation

  • Advanced Scanning & Enumeration

  • Exploitation Techniques (Metasploit, Cobalt Strike)

  • Privilege Escalation in Windows & Linux

Practice: Exploit a controlled vulnerable machine (e.g., Metasploitable).

Module 2: Digital Forensics & Incident Response (DFIR)

  • Evidence Collection & Chain of Custody

  • Memory & Disk Forensics (Autopsy, Volatility)

  • Malware Analysis (Sandboxing, Reverse Engineering Basics)

Practice: Investigate a simulated cyberattack with forensic tools.

Module 3: Cloud Security

  • AWS, Azure, GCP Security Fundamentals

  • Identity & Access Management (IAM)

  • Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)

Practice: Configure IAM policies and secure S3 buckets.

Module 4: Security Automation & Scripting

  • Automating Security Tasks with Python

  • Writing Scripts for Log Parsing and Monitoring

  • Introduction to SIEM Automation and SOAR Platforms

Practice: Build a Python script to detect failed login attempts in system logs.

Module 5: Red Teaming & Blue Teaming

  • Red Team (Offensive Security) Strategies

  • Blue Team (Defensive Security) Monitoring

  • Purple Team Collaboration Exercises

Practice: Conduct a simulated Red vs. Blue Team exercise in a lab environment.

Module 6: Capstone Project

Title: End-to-End Enterprise Security Implementation

  • Assessment: Conduct a full vulnerability assessment for a simulated company

  • Solution Design: Develop a secure network architecture and response plan

  • Automation: Deploy security automation for incident detection

  • Report: Deliver an executive report and presentation
