SOC Specialist (SOCS) TIER 3

Certified SOC Tier 3 Analyst — The Elite Level of Cyber Defence

When Tier 1 detects and Tier 2 investigates, Tier 3 stops the threat cold.
The Certified SOC Tier 3 Analyst training is the ultimate step for cybersecurity professionals ready to lead advanced threat detection, incident response, and digital forensics in real-world, high-pressure SOC environments.

This isn’t entry-level — this is where strategy meets precision, and every second counts. You’ll learn how to analyse complex attacks, hunt persistent threats, and engineer defenses that keep organizations safe from sophisticated adversaries.

If you’ve already worked in SOC environments or handled incidents, this program turns your operational experience into strategic mastery.

⚔️ Why This Training Matters

Cyber attacks are no longer random — they’re targeted, layered, and persistent. Organisations now rely on Tier 3 analysts to go beyond dashboards, digging deep into systems, code, and behaviour to stop advanced persistent threats (APTs) before they spread.

As a Certified SOC Tier 3 Analyst, you’ll:

• Lead complex investigations across network and endpoint layers.
• Perform deep malware analysis and reverse engineering.
• Develop and fine-tune correlation rules, detection scripts, and automation playbooks.
• Serve as the escalation point for all critical incidents.
• Design defensive strategies for future-proofing the SOC.
