There’s no better time than now to help you, your customers and your prospects hone their threat-hunting skills. That’s because Season 4 of the Sophos Threat Hunting Academy is now open for registration with a laser-focus on MDR — Managed Detection and Response.

Our threat hunting experts will provide a deep dive on how to identify, classify and defend against the latest threats by leveraging technologies and services like 3rd party telemetry and advanced network monitoring.  They’ll also dig into why it’s crucial to have the support of experts and comprehensive systems for even more effective protection.

In just three sessions, our team will tackle the dominant components of MDR, starting with building a dependable Security Operations Center (SOC) foundation. They’ll investigate how a SOC should operate and review the advantages of providing round-the-clock support defense for its network, data, and users.

They’ll continue by exploring and showcasing how 3rd party telemetry can level up defense capabilities. Finally, they’ll cover why Network Detection and Response (NDR) technology is crucial to identifying suspicious network activity once threats have gone around existing defenses. You’ll learn what NDR is, how it works and why it’s so integral for your customer’s cybersecurity posture.

Be prepared to help your customers (and prospects!) embrace the need for a comprehensive MDR solution. Promote this Academy to generate new leads, and to give them the opportunity to learn how MDR services can extend their network and protect them from modern cyber attacks. Start today using your Partner Referral ID and available co-branded marketing assets.

Please note: There’s no need to have attended previous seasons of Threat Hunting Academy to enroll in Season 4. After completing the three sessions outlined below, you’ll only need to take a brief test to qualify as a Sophos MDR Certified Administrator, and will get three hours of CPE credits toward your ongoing cyber industry qualifications.

To accommodate various time zones, we’re offering the Threat Hunting Academy at different times for the Americas and EMEA. Sessions dedicated for partners in APJ will follow in January 2023.
