300-220: Conducting Threat Hunting and Defending using Cisco Technologies for CyberOps (CBRTHD)

300-220: Conducting Threat Hunting and Defending using Cisco Technologies for CyberOps (CBRTHD)

This exam certifies a candidate's knowledge for conducting threat hunting and defending including threat modeling techniques, threat actor attribution techniques, threat hunting techniques, threat hunting processes, and threat hunting outcomes.

To earn your CyberOps Professional certification you must pass the 350-201 CBRCOR exam and an eligible concentration exam of your choice, such as 300-220 CBRTHD. Passing the 300-220 CBRTHD exam also earns you the Cisco Certified Specialist – Threat Hunting and Defending certification.
