Later, you’ll discover knowledge graphs and how to build them, then become well-versed with basic to advanced techniques related to hunting for credentials, and learn to automate Microsoft Office and browsers to your advantage. Finally, you’ll get to grips with protecting assets using decoys, auditing, and alerting with examples for major operating systems.
