The CJDE (Certified Junior Detection Engineer) course provides a pathway into detection engineering and cyber security operations, focusing on identifying, analyzing, and responding to threats using detection tools and strategies. It is ideal for roles such as Junior Security Analysts, Detection Engineers, SIEM Administrators, Incident Response Analysts, and SOC Analysts, and is suited to individuals with foundational cyber security knowledge who wish to specialize in detection and response or enhance their existing skills.

 

Why choose CJDE?

CJDE is designed to train students that are capable of responding to threat intelligence reports and are able to build test and deploy detections in your environments. Below are some examples of the skills and experience you will gain.

  • Automate detection workflows with git.
  • Creating and tuning network detection rules
  • Creating and tuning Sigma Rules
  • Utilising AI in detection engineering flows.
  • … And much more

 

The skills and tools you’ll learn in this course will be directly applicable to a range of security roles, and are actively used by defenders around the world.

Certified rewards

Once a student passes the practical exam and becomes CJDE certified, they will receive a number of rewards for their hard work:

  • Become a Certified Junior Detection Engineer for life
  • CJDE digital PDF certificate
  • CJDE Credly digital badge
  • CJDE printed certificate
  • CJDE silver challenge coin (gold if 90%+ is scored on first attempt)

 

Who is the course for?
