Automation offers many advantages to information technology including higher production rates and increased productivity, more efficient use of resources, both physical and logical, better product/service quality, and improved security and safety. In this course, the learner will tackle concepts such as automation and scripting use cases, continuous integration and testing, application programming interfaces (APIs), the benefits of automation, automation considerations, the incident response process, training, testing, tabletop exercises, simulations, threat hunting, root cause analysis, digital forensics, and investigation data sources. This course is part of a series that prepares you for the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
