Initial Access & Anomaly Hunting trains you to simulate attacker entry methods and detect anomalies using SIEM‑based lab exercises and real-world threat techniques like macros, LNK, HTA, ISO, scheduled tasks, and service abuse.
Initial access refers to the crucial first step taken by cyber threat actors to gain unauthorized entry into a digital system or network. It marks the beginning of a cyber-attack, during which adversaries exploit vulnerabilities or employ various techniques to breach the perimeter defenses and establish a foothold within the target environment. This initial breach often serves as a gateway for further compromise, allowing attackers to execute their malicious objectives, such as exfiltrating sensitive data, deploying malware, or disrupting operations.
