Modern telecom networks face unprecedented security challenges with 5G deployment and hybrid enterprise integration. This Short Course was created to help Cybersecurity professionals accomplish comprehensive threat detection and response across telecom and enterprise infrastructures. By completing this course, you'll be able to implement zero-trust controls for 5G environments, prioritize security alerts from multiple detection systems, and execute incident response procedures that meet telecom compliance requirements. By the end of this course, you will be able to: Apply zero-trust principles to map required controls across 5G, VoIP, and traditional enterprise network segments; Analyze SIEM, EDR/NDR, and WAF alert data to prioritize containment steps for containerized workloads; Evaluate incident-response playbooks to confirm that evidence preservation and communication actions are aligned with telecom compliance requirements This course is unique because it bridges traditional enterprise security with emerging 5G and containerized telecom architectures. To be successful,you should have foundational knowledge of network security principles and SIEM operations
