Junior level
In this section you will learn how to identify and manually remove different types of malware. This stage employs practice logs as a training tool under the supervision and guidance of our Malware Response Instructors. Discussions about current developments and changes in the methods of dealing with malware start here.
Senior level
Upon your completion of the required logs, you will work here with actual users under the supervision of an Instructor. Once you have demonstrated the capability to effectively resolve problems you will become a staff member, with full rights as a Malware Response Team Member.
Don't be put off by the challenging effort; even though the training is intensive and may require some time we will go at your pace and even absolute beginners can give it a go.
