[ 01 ]Why this course

Take QRadar SIEM out of the default configuration.

Most organisations running QRadar inherit a default configuration: out-of-the-box rules, offences with no tuning, flows going unused. This course closes that gap with practice on QRadar SIEM 7.6.

Four days to deploy, integrate and operate QRadar end to end: install from scratch, onboard log sources and flows, write CRE rules, tune false positives, investigate offences and query Ariel with AQL. Every module ends with a guided lab on a real QRadar instance.

On completion, SIXE QRadar Administrator digital badge, verifiable on Credly.
