Applied Data Science for Cyber Security

Write scripts to efficiently read and manipulate CSV, XML, and JSON files
Quickly and efficiently parse executables, log files, pcap and extract artifacts from them
Make API calls to merge datasets
Use the Pandas library to quickly manipulate tabular data
Effectively visualize data using Python
Pre-process raw security data for machine learning and feature engineering
Build, apply and evaluate machine learning algorithms to identify potential threats
Automate the process of tuning and optimizing machine learning models
Hunt anomalous indicators of compromise and reducing false positives
Use supervised learning algorithms such as Random Forests, Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) to classify malicious URLs and identify SQL Injection
Apply unsupervised learning algorithms such as K-Means Clustering to detect anomalous behavior
Finally, you will be introduced to cutting edge Big Data tools including Apache Spark (PySpark), Apache Drill, and GPU accelerated parallel computing frameworks and learn how to apply these techniques to extremely large datasets.
