Tier 2+ Cyber Defense Specializations: Finding Your Path Sample skills and disciplines that branch off from SOC work. Scripting with PowerShell and Python, detection engineering, cloud security and DevSecOps, and web app pentesting, each a self-contained hands-on introduction. It's recommended to check this out after our 0 to Tier 1, Tier 1 to 2 SOC Analyst paths, but it's friendly for beginners to check out too.

npm supply chain attack, trojanized package in the nightly build, SOC alerted, credentials possibly exfiltrated... do you know what to do? Get experience responding to this attack in our new course called PHANTOM: - Pull 10 IOCs out of a real artifact pack - Write YARA, Snort and Sigma rules against your findings, get them graded - Threat hunt using KQL or PowerShell - Deliver a full incident report, manually reviewed 1 on 1 by an Instructor We ran this as a CTF in May. It's now a full course you can take any time, no timer. Pass the report and the PHANTOM badge is yours. Live now on Guardian Foundry, included in all access tiers: leveleffect.com Already a member?

Training Actual SOC Analysts on the Job x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@boardyai @andrewdsouza happy to answer questions !

Live demo of how our partners are training their SOC Analysts on the job with our new enterprise / b2b training tools released last month. -- > Thursday September 3 at 1PM EST! <--

Give AI this one instruction... Models pick up on the assumption baked into your question. If your prompt sounds like "there has to be an answer here," they'll invent one to satisfy you. Even the frontier models do this. One-line fix: give it explicit permission to say "this doesn't apply." Suddenly the hallucinations stop and you get actual honest answers. Prompting is a skill. This is one of the highest-ROI ones to learn. Watch more talks like this here: jht.link/ContinuumCon #ContinuumCon #PromptEngineering #AITips #LLM #AI

HardStuck: Detection Engineering beta is now LIVE. New R&D (Research & Development) lesson format. Instant feedback and 1 on 1 instructor reviews. Three modules open: - Why Detection Engineering Exists - The Detection Environment - Detection Design Available in "Learning Paths" after logging in: leveleffect.com

Reminder that subscribers get beta access immediately. Will do a public draw for it later.

The cheaper AI makes detection rule generation, the deeper the expertise needed to judge whether it fits your business context. HardStuck: Detection Engineering beta goes live Friday Aug 14 to train exactly that. Requirements, design, validation, deployment, maintenance.

HardStuck: Detection Engineering beta opens Aug 14. At full release it brings a new R&D (Research & Development) certification class to the industry: HADES R&D. Earning the cert requires new original detection research plus a full lifecycle detection build, reviewed by the author himself, and made to live in your portfolio. This new course covers the engineering process: requirements, design, validation, deployment, maintenance. It's built by Rain Jordan, original author of our DE&TH track, founder of his own detection company, and a Senior Threat Detection Engineer in the field. Adventurers and Guardians are in the beta automatically. Draw forms go out next week for everyone else, with a special one for DE&TH owners. Full details in this month's newsletter: news.leveleffect.com/p/hardstuck-be… Note: the Founder's Sale ends Aug 16. Over 40% off annual, locked for life. Lowest ever, and it gets you into the beta.

🚨 GIVEAWAY 🔥 -- A kind community member is sponsoring 1 month of our Guardian tier plan! 🙏 FROM THEM: "I can't say enough about how valuable LE has been for me over the past 3–4 months. During my interviews, I repeatedly brought up my experiences with the labs, CTFs, and

good systems administration on the IT and GRC side does wonders, agreed, we cover a lot of that, it's the bulk of security... but not all of it definitely need some more training around deploying and maintaining prevention/detection controls beyond the checklists and framework recommendations

Detection engineering is more than writing rules. What happens after implementation? Auditing? Maintenance? ... when do you retire them? AI is also making rule generation cheap. That means more rules entering your environment faster. More validation, oversight, and technical debt. Right now we train you heavily on producing rules and testing them against telemetry. But now the next part is needed. Our next course trains the engineering process: requirements, design, validation, deployment, maintenance. It's being written by a very experienced Senior Threat Detection Engineer who is seeing this problem compound in the field today. You asked for more Detection Engineering content, and you're getting it. ✅ 1 on 1 submissions and feedback included. Full reveal and waitlist next week. 👀
