TechNeura, in collaboration with Phoenix Cyber Security Services, presents a practical, lab-driven masterclass designed for learners and professionals who want to understand how a modern Security Operations Center works in real-world environments.
This is not a theory-only training. It is a hands-on workshop built around live lab environments, realistic security scenarios, practical exercises, and guided activities that help participants gain skills they can apply from day one.
Over four intensive days, participants will learn how to detect threats, hunt suspicious activity, automate responses, defend systems, build dashboards, and respond to incidents using a structured SOC approach
Workshop Overview
Modern organizations need security teams that can do more than monitor alerts. A capable SOC analyst must understand attacker behaviour, investigate suspicious activity, work with logs, validate alerts, coordinate response actions, and support continuous improvement of security operations.
This masterclass is designed to help participants build that capability through practical labs and real-world exercises.
Participants will work through guided SOC activities covering threat detection, threat hunting, incident response, automation, threat intelligence, and dashboard building.
Key Focus Areas
| DETECT | HUNT | AUTOMATE | DEFEND |
|---|---|---|---|
| Learn how to identify suspicious activities, review security alerts, analyze logs, and recognize early signs of potential cyber attacks within a SOC environment. | Go beyond basic monitoring by proactively searching for hidden threats, investigating abnormal patterns, and performing structured threat hunting activities. | Understand how automation can support SOC operations by reducing repetitive tasks, improving response speed, and helping teams act with consistency. | Learn how to respond to incidents, support containment activities, improve monitoring, and strengthen the overall security posture of real systems. |
What You Will Do
During the workshop, participants will take part in practical activities that reflect real SOC work.
You will:
- Investigate real attacks
- Analyze logs and alerts
- Hunt threats
- Automate responses
- Build dashboards
- Respond to incidents
- Work with strategic processes
These activities are designed to help participants understand not only the technical side of SOC operations, but also the operational thinking required to work effectively in a security team.
Hands-on Labs You Will Master
Threat Detection Lab
Learn how to identify suspicious activities, review security events, analyze alerts, and understand how potential threats are detected within a modern SOC environment.
Threat Hunting Lab
Practice proactive threat hunting by investigating logs, identifying abnormal patterns, and searching for hidden threats that may not be visible through standard alerts.
Incident Response Lab
Understand how to respond to security incidents using a structured approach, including investigation, containment, escalation, and incident documentation.
Automation Lab
Explore how automation supports SOC operations by reducing repetitive work, improving response speed, and helping teams act with consistency during security events.
Threat Intelligence Lab
Learn how threat intelligence helps SOC teams understand attacker behavior, enrich investigations, validate indicators, and improve detection and response decisions.
Custom Dashboard Lab
Build practical dashboards that help monitor security events, visualize key activity, track incidents, and support SOC-level operational decision-making.
Who Should Attend
This masterclass is suitable for individuals who want to build practical SOC skills and understand how modern security operations work.
It is ideal for:
- Cyber security beginners who want hands-on exposure
- IT professionals moving into security operations
- SOC analysts looking to strengthen practical skills
- Network and system administrators interested in security monitoring
- Students and graduates preparing for cyber security careers
