Course Overview
This instructor-led training basically enables you to prevent attacks on your endpoints. After an overview of the Cortex XDR components, the training introduces the Cortex XDR management console, showing you how to install the agents on your endpoints and also how to create security profiles and policies. The training also helps you understand how to perform and track response actions, tune profiles, and work with Cortex XDR alerts. The training ends up with introductory modules basic troubleshooting of the agent, on-premises Broker VM component, and Cortex XDR deployment.
