Learning Paths and Labs
WWT's Labs and Learning provides on-demand and hands-on education with practical experience and skill-building.
SASE - Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA)
A hands-on learning path covering Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) on the current Experience Center platform. Short concept videos and in-depth articles build your understanding of ZIA's architecture, administration, traffic forwarding, and security policies, while the companion lab guide gives you real, click-by-click practice configuring and testing each capability yourself.
Learning Path
Fortinet Secure SD-WAN Sandbox (7.4.x)
This Sandbox environment features a pre-configured network topology designed to showcase the diverse capabilities of the Fortinet Secure SD-WAN solution. The incorporated set of components within the lab topology includes FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, and FortiGates running on FortiOS 7.4.11/7.4.12 code.

Palo Alto Cortex XDR Proving Ground Lab
WWT's ATC Palo Alto Cortex XDR Proving Ground Lab provides a consolidated solution built around Cortex XDR, the Palo Alto firewall, Windows endpoints and Windows servers to demonstrate how the Cortex XDR Agent protects against threats. The goal of Cortex XDR is to increase the operational efficiency of the security operations center. Cortex XDR accomplishes this by reducing alerts by combining similar events, stitching together logs from different sources and preventing as many threats as possible early in the attack cycle. Cortex XDR goes beyond the traditional EDR approach of using only endpoint data to identify and respond to threats by applying machine learning across all your enterprise, network, cloud and endpoint data. This approach enables you to quickly find and stop targeted attacks, insider abuse and remediate compromised endpoints. Cortex XDR combines functionality from Endpoint Protection, Endpoint Detection and Response, Network Traffic Analysis and User Behavior Analytics into a single console. This lab consists of servers running common applications that include Palo Alto Cortex XDR, Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR, Palo Alto VM-Series firewall, Active Directory, Windows IIS and SQL server, and several Windows 11 workstations. You will access the environment using a Windows-based jump host from which you can browse web consoles and open RDP/SSH sessions.

CICD for Automation Engineers
This lab is a component of the Infrastructure Automation Automated Testing learning path in the Infrastructure Automation with Ansible Learning Series. The goal of this learning path is to provide hands-on and practical exposure to the concepts of implementing Continuous Integration Continuous Delivery.
The lab will utilize Gitea as the Source Code Manager (SCM) which includes Gitea Actions for executing CICD Workflows. Gitea Actions map almost identically to GitHub actions so the Gitea specific knowledge gained maps directly to GitHub implementations. The general concepts learn through this lab are also valuable and applicable across other implementations.

CrowdStrike CTF: Falcon
CrowdStrike delivers a unified platform approach to modern security so you can protect and build your future. This game incorporates several new features of CrowdStrike, offering a unique opportunity to test your skills against the latest in cybersecurity technology.
Tools utilized within the game:
🔷Crowdstrike Falcon (EDR tool, end point protection and analysis)
🔷Crowdstrike Logscale (History and logging)
🔷CrowdStrike Cloud Security
🔷CrowdStrike Identity Threat Protection
This is a mixed capture the flag style event that will require you and your team to zero in on malicious actors inside of a network, identify vulnerable or outdated services, and brace yourself for a real-time series of cyber attacks. Points will be awarded for finding those exploits, remediating them to the best of your ability and defending Iron Guardian's network.
