OSDA | Foundational Security Operations and Defensive Analysis (SOC-200) course training overview

Master foundational security operations and defensive analysis (soc-200) with our Classroom and Online OSDA Training at WebAsha Technologies. It builds the hands-on, 'Try Harder' skills validated by the OSDA exam.

Training overview:

OSDA is OffSec's foundational blue-team certification, earned through the SOC-200 course. It builds hands-on defensive skills: understanding attacker techniques on Windows and Linux and in Active Directory, then detecting and analysing them with SIEM tooling (the ELK stack). These skills are proven in a 24-hour hands-on detection exam across ten attack phases.

Intended audience:

This course is ideal for aspiring and current SOC analysts, detection engineers, incident responders and IT professionals moving into defensive security, targeting the OSDA certification.

Topics covered:

  • Attacker methodology: Understand offense to defend.
  • Windows attacks: Server-side and client-side.
  • Linux attacks: Server-side and escalation.
  • Detection engineering: Turning attacks into alerts.
  • Network detections: Spotting malicious traffic.
  • Evasion awareness: Detecting AV and network evasion.
  • Active Directory: Enumeration, movement and persistence.
  • SIEM (ELK): Correlating and hunting in logs.

Requirements:

Comfort with Linux and the command line is recommended. Online participants need a stable internet connection and a laptop/desktop for the live labs.

Prerequisites:

OffSec recommends a solid TCP/IP networking foundation, familiarity with Windows and Linux, and basic cyber-security concepts (CompTIA Security+ level or equivalent). No formal prerequisite is required.

Career benefits:

Defensive analysis is in strong demand. In India, OSDA-certified professionals typically earn ₹4 LPA to ₹32+ LPA across SOC and detection-engineering roles.
