Want to better understand how malware works? The best way to learn is to get hands-on with it.

Our Practical Malware Analysis & Triage (PMAT) course teaches you how to build your own malware analysis lab, safely handle live malware samples, and use static and dynamic analysis techniques to investigate malicious software.

It's practical, hands-on, and, dare we say, 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐟𝐮𝐧. 😂😅

PMAT is also the only required course for our Practical Malware Research Professional (PMRP) certification, making it a great starting point if you're interested in developing your malware analysis skills.

- Separate evidence from assumptions and validate recovery
- Why content an AI assistant reads must be treated as untrusted (prompt injection)
- A look at NOVA, an open-source prompt pattern matching framework (keyword layer demo)
- A preview of PowerShell 100: Fundamentals for Cybersecurity
- Next steps for practicing on Skillbit

All scenarios and data are fictional. Bring your questions for the live Q&A.

A pe*******on test doesn’t end when the report is delivered. The real value comes from what your team does next.

Join Aaron Wilson and the TCM Security pentesting team on October 15 for another Cybersecurity Appreciation Month live virtual event focused on turning pentest findings into meaningful action.

Aaron will walk through how to better understand your findings, prioritize remediation efforts, and make sure those priorities align with your organization’s business and compliance goals.

If your team is responsible for security, remediation, risk, or compliance, this is one you’ll want on the calendar.

Make sure you register soon, or pass it along to someone in your organization who should attend! 📅 https://hubs.la/Q04zypc80

Purple Teaming is an emerging cybersecurity discipline that merges components of Blue Teaming & Red Teaming. If you've been looking for a security career path and haven't been really interested in strictly defensive or offensive security, this might be the pathway for you.

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠? By developing both offensive and defensive skills, you expand your versatility and your career opportunities. While dedicated Purple Team roles are still growing in number, many employers are increasingly looking for professionals who can bridge the gap between attack and defense.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐂𝐌 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠? While we don't have a Purple Teaming track yet, we have several offensive & defensive security courses and certifications that can help build your skillset. We also offer the PMRP: the Practical Malware Research Professional, which is sort of our unofficial Purple Teaming certification as it merges Red Team and Blue Team techniques.

𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸! 🟣

As part of Cybersecurity Appreciation Month, we’re spending each week highlighting different niches across the industry. Last week was all about Red Team.

This week? Purple Team.

Purple teaming brings offensive and defensive security together, using the lessons learned from attacks to strengthen detection, response, and overall defenses.
In this explainer, we break down the differences between red teaming, blue teaming, and purple teaming, plus where each fits into the bigger security picture.

We also offer courses and certifications that align with skills across these areas, including:

• 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗣𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 (𝗣𝗡𝗣𝗧) 🔴
• 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗢𝗖 𝗔𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝗣𝗦𝗔𝗔) 🔵
• 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 (𝗣𝗠𝗥𝗣) 🟣

See them all here: https://hubs.la/Q04znBXJ0
