Module 1 – Navigating the Battlefield: Leveraging MITRE ATT&CK^® Tactics
Execution of complete kill chain from Reconnaissance to Exfiltration with elevation to domain dominance privileges. Demonstration of attacker behavior to understand how to prevent or investigate cyberattacks.

Module 2 – Defense Evasion
While defenders implement security features, attackers learn to bypass them. Defenders should also learn evasion techniques to keep up with attackers.

Get insights on Windows 10 and 11 security bypasses like: Defender antivirus, Applocker, PowerShell AMSI, ASR rules etc. Furthermore, cloud security features like Microsoft Defender for Office will also be explored

Module 3 – Prevention and Detection with Microsoft 365 Defender
Protect your modern workplace from modern attacks with Microsoft 365 Defender.

• Configure ASR rules that prevent ransomware
• Configure Controlled Folder Access to protect data
• Configure user data recovery
• Third-party solutions for tenant recovery
