Episode 48 — Spaced Retrieval: Defensive Technologies Recall and Triage Decision Practice
This spaced retrieval session is designed to turn your defensive tools into instincts through rapid recall and practical triage decision practice. We move through spoken drills that challenge you to define the differences between logs, telemetry, and alerts and explain the core purpose of a S I E M. This session forces you to apply the unique value of E D R and N D R to a suspicious login or malware alert scenario, deciding on immediate containment steps and communication paths. We identify the common pitfall of "chasing tool features" instead of answering the fundamental investigative questions of what happened and what risk exists. By actively practicing the "collect, confirm, contain, coordinate, and continue" sequence, you build the professional muscle memory needed for high-pressure security operations. Consistent rehearsal of these triage workflows ensures your decisions are always data-driven and aligned with the organization's business mission.
