My company is opening a SOC soon and I want to get certs that might get me on the team. I’m currently working in GRC but want to keep my technical skills sharp. Suggestions on SOC related certs?

Already have a bachelors degree in IT, Azure Administration Associate cert, scrum master cert, and looking into TOGAF or ITIL (suggestions on either of those is appreciated).

Definitely in the UK - Blue Team Level 1 (BLT1) is pretty popular but everyone I know who has taken it already worked in a SOC so can’t say how entry-level it is. Probably CompTIA CySA+ is a good shout.

I don’t think scum master TOGAF ITIL will get you on a SOC team, actually that’s a completely different track. You need network, forensics, cloud, system admin stuff. GRC is still relevant if you can showcase you know the overall policies procedures frameworks and can implement them via documentation (like SOP, policies etc) but either way GRC is still helpful if what you specialized in is relevant to company

SANS have some good stuff, however pretty pricey so if you can get it funded via your company you’ll be in good hands
