You Should Know:

Essential SOC Analyst Skills & Commands

To excel in a SOC role, you must master these tools and commands:

Linux-Based Security Tools

 Monitor network traffic in real-time 
sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -n -s0

Analyze logs for suspicious activity 
grep "Failed password" /var/log/auth.log

Check active connections 
netstat -tulnp

Investigate processes 
ps aux | grep "suspicious_process"

Scan for open ports 
nmap -sV -p- 192.168.1.1

Windows Security Commands

 Check active network connections 
netstat -ano

Analyze Windows Event Logs for security events 
Get-WinEvent -LogName Security | Where-Object {$_.ID -eq 4625}

List scheduled tasks (common malware persistence) 
schtasks /query /fo LIST /v

Check for unusual services 
Get-Service | Where-Object {$_.Status -eq "Running"}

SIEM & Threat Hunting

  • Splunk Query Example:
    index=security sourcetype=linux_secure "Failed password" | stats count by src
  • ELK Stack (KQL):
    event.category:authentication AND event.outcome:failure

Incident Response Steps

1. Isolate the affected system (`airgap` if necessary).

2. Capture memory dump:

sudo dd if=/dev/mem of=/tmp/memdump.img

3. Analyze malware with YARA:

yara -r malware_rules.yar /tmp/suspicious_file

4. Contain the threat by blocking malicious IPs:

sudo iptables -A INPUT -s 1.2.3.4 -j DROP

What Undercode Say

Aspiring SOC analysts should focus on:

  • Log analysis (SIEM tools like Splunk, ELK).
  • Network forensics (Wireshark, Zeek).
  • Automation (Python/Bash scripting).
  • Threat intelligence (MISP, OTX).

🔗 Further Learning:

Prediction

The demand for SOC analysts will grow by 35% in 2026, driven by increasing cyber threats. Upskilling in cloud security (AWS/Azure) and AI-driven threat detection will be crucial.

Expected Output:

A well-prepared SOC analyst with hands-on command experience and threat-hunting skills.
