Dive into the technical core of the SOC. The Detection Logic & Rule Engineering module breaks down how to transform raw threat intelligence and adversary TTPs into actionable, high-fidelity detection rules.

You will learn how to write optimized SIEM queries, structure correlation logic using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, manage the rule lifecycle from hypothesis to deployment, and measure your overall detection coverage. By the end of this module, you will be able to engineer robust detection logic that catches advanced threats without drowning the SOC in false positives.
