Implementing a Full SOC Environment
Live Workshop

Why Implement a Full SOC Environment?

Security Operations Centers are in high demand — and so are the professionals who can build and run them. Yet most training stops at theory. This workshop goes further: you will design, deploy, and operate a complete SOC from scratch, using the same tools, processes, and architectures used by enterprise security teams worldwide.

In a world where cyber threats evolve daily, organizations need professionals who do not just understand SOC concepts — they need engineers who can stand one up, integrate the technology stack, write the playbooks, and keep operations running. That is exactly what this workshop delivers.

Who Is This Workshop For?

✅ SOC analysts (Tier 1–3) looking to move into SOC engineering or architecture roles.

✅ Blue team and security engineers building or upgrading a SOC environment.

✅ IT professionals transitioning into cybersecurity operations.

✅ Security managers overseeing SOC design and implementation.

✅ Students and career changers pursuing hands-on, job-ready SOC skills.

Prerequisites

Basic networking and security fundamentals (CompTIA Network+, Security+, or equivalent hands-on experience). No prior SOC architecture experience required — we build from the ground up.

What You Will Be Able to Do

By the end of this 10-week live workshop, you will have the skills and hands-on experience to:

✅ Design a production-ready SOC architecture — roles, tiers, workflows, and maturity models used in real enterprise environments

✅ Select and integrate the right security technology stack — SIEM, SOAR, EDR, NDR, and threat intel feeds working together as a unified defence

✅ Deploy and configure a full SIEM environment — from log ingestion and normalization to dashboards and detection rules mapped to MITRE ATT&CK

✅ Build and automate SOAR playbooks — phishing triage, malware containment, account compromise response, and more

✅ Run incident response end-to-end — detect, triage, contain, eradicate, recover, and document with professional IR workflows

✅ Write SOC policies, runbooks, and SLAs — the operational backbone that keeps a SOC running efficiently under pressure

✅ Measure and improve SOC performance — MTTD, MTTR, false positive rates, dwell time, and the KPIs that matter to leadership

✅ Complete a capstone project — a real, portfolio-ready deliverable you can showcase in interviews

10-Week Live Curriculum

Week 1 — SOC Fundamentals & Architecture

SOC models (in-house, hybrid, MSSP), tier structures, analyst roles, and workflows. SOC maturity models and how enterprise SOCs are designed and staffed from the ground up.

Week 2 — SOC Technology Stack

SIEM, SOAR, EDR, NDR, UEBA, and threat intel platforms — what each tool does, how they work together, and how to select the right stack for your organisation's size and risk profile.

Week 3 — Log Sources & Data Engineering

Windows Event Logs, Sysmon, Linux auditd, firewall and proxy logs, EDR telemetry, and cloud logs (AWS, Azure, M365). Parsing, normalisation, enrichment, and log quality assurance.

Week 4 — SIEM Deployment & Configuration

Hands-on: deploy and configure a SIEM (vendor-agnostic — concepts apply to Splunk, QRadar, Sentinel, Elastic, and Wazuh). Indexes, data models, dashboards, role-based access, and retention policies.

Week 5 — Detection Engineering & Correlation Rules

Write detection rules mapped to MITRE ATT&CK. Cover brute-force, lateral movement, privilege escalation, ransomware precursors, and data exfiltration. Tune rules to eliminate false positives.

Week 6 — Threat Intelligence Integration

IOC ingestion and enrichment, threat scoring, MISP, OSINT sources, and intelligence-driven dashboards. Turn raw threat data into decisions that improve your detection coverage.

Week 7 — SOAR & Automation

Hands-on playbook development for phishing triage, malware containment, suspicious login response, and account compromise — with approval gates, enrichment steps, and ticketing integration.

Week 8 — Incident Response in a Live SOC

End-to-end IR: detect → triage → contain → eradicate → recover → lessons learned. Live IR simulation exercises with real-time decision-making under pressure.

Week 9 — SOC Policies, Runbooks & Performance Metrics

Write escalation procedures, shift handover templates, and SLAs. Measure what matters: MTTD, MTTR, dwell time, false positive rate. Report SOC health to leadership with clear KPIs.

Week 10 — Capstone Project + Career Lab

Own a simulated breach end-to-end: from detection to full incident report. Plus: SOC engineer CV review, LinkedIn positioning, and interview prep for SOC architect and engineering roles.

How InfoSec4TC Fast-Tracks Your Career

SOC engineers and architects are among the most sought-after professionals in cybersecurity — and the gap between demand and supply is widening. Companies across finance, healthcare, government, and technology are actively building and scaling their SOC capabilities right now.

This workshop gives you three things most training cannot:

✅ Real hands-on builds — you will deploy and configure a full SOC stack, not just watch someone else do it

✅ Portfolio evidence — your Week 10 capstone gives interviewers something concrete to evaluate

✅ Operational confidence — you will have run a live IR simulation, written playbooks, and measured SOC performance before day one on the job
