Firstly is an aim to improve my skills at Active Threat Hunting. To do this I&#8217;ve primarily been focusing on the Palo Alto Strata Cloud Manager Platform, working on better understanding traffic flowing through the organisation and how to best filter out and action potential threats. Examples include certain file extensions seen, DGA sightings, unusual TLDs can all lead to indicators of threat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a non-technical note, I heard something this month that made me really think about what constitutes a valuable employee. That was the idea that a truly valuable employee will not just raise an issue to be addressed but also propose solutions to remediate that issue, taking a more active role as per se. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning below as per normal. Formally it&#8217;s been SC-900 heavy for obvious reasons but I have future plans to tackle some more Immersive Labs alongside learning the ArcX Threat Intelligence Practitioner course (accredited by CREST) and starting the journey to SC-200. <br><br><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Microsoft Learn<\/span> (SC-900)<br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-gb\/training\/modules\/explore-basic-services-identity-types\/7-summary-resources#completion\" title=\"\">Describe the function and identity types of Microsoft Entra ID<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/9XBCTFTU?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe the authentication capabilities of Microsoft Entra ID<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/UYJWFJG3?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe access management capabilities of Microsoft Entra<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/9XMG2WNU?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Describe Microsoft Security Co-pilot<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/74HJQ5GZ?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe core infrastructure security services in Azure<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/2BW68BNV?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe the security management capabilities in Azure<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/YQ9THHQR?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe security capabilities of Microsoft Sentinel<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/WZLSU9AN?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe threat protection with Microsoft Defender XDR<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/UYJTZV63?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe Microsoft&#8217;s Service Trust portal and privacy capabilities<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/FV6UP6ZX?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe the data governance solutions of Microsoft Purview<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-gb\/RaineJoe-0058\/ESYMFNGP?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe the data compliance solutions of Microsoft Purview<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/api\/achievements\/share\/en-us\/RaineJoe-0058\/9XJYYB9U?sharingId=82B9DCE9749B55AA\" title=\"\">Describe the data governance solutions of Microsoft Purview<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month has seen Sentinel being introduced and as such a greater emphasis has been put on developing capabilities on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,2,10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog","category-learning","category-updates"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=441"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":456,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/441\/revisions\/456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=441"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=441"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/justatrainingblog.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=441"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
