LYKOS DEFENCE

Readiness. Response. Resilience.

Build Investigation Capability Before You Need It

Training is one of the most effective preparedness controls: it builds the technical depth and judgement needed to triage alerts, preserve evidence, and make confident decisions under time pressure.

Done well, it also makes tabletop exercises more valuable by ensuring participants understand what “good” looks like in practice.

Through Lykos Defence, we support DFIR capability development using established, internationally recognised training. Where appropriate, we can deliver SANS training and help organisations connect training outcomes to their internal plans, playbooks, and exercise programs.

If your goal is resilience and readiness rather than a one-off course, we can help you identify the right training pathway for your team’s current maturity, then reinforce it through cybersecurity tabletop exercises and playbook-focused improvement cycles.

Training can be delivered in formats that suit your team and operating environment:

What Past Students Say

Really well run course. Seth is an excellent instructor and made the course very enjoyable.
Seth is a fantastic instructor who is knowledgeable and delivers the course with clarity, precision, and depth. He is approachable and able to answer most of our questions, and for the ones he wasn't able to, he would research in his own time to find the answer. I would be happy to attend another class run by Seth again.
I have joined his course, not only to improve my skills but also to learn from Seth. He was my lecturer at UNSW for his last semester there and it's great to see him still bringing the same love and excitement for the material. As a standout and memorable lecturer in my first semester at university, I deeply appreciate his teaching method (and continue to do so just as much in this course).
Memory forensics is a complex topic, especially to a group of people who likely haven't done it prior. Seth does a really awesome job at understanding this and teaching it. Throughout the topic he takes the time to break down complex topics, which at times he explained much better than the course book itself.
Seth is amazing. Very clear explanations, very knowledgeable, approachable, and friendly.
The instructor consistently demonstrates a high level of expertise and delivers content with clarity and impact, drawing from an impressive depth of experience.
Seth is a very knowledgeable instructor who delivers the content articulately and with very clear explanations.
The instructor was very good - knowledegable, clear, and engaging. Their explanations made complex topics easier to understand, and they were responsive to questions, which enhanced the overall learning experience.
Seth is a great speaker, extremely clear and thorough and clearly deeply understands the content he is delivering.
The instructor is excellent, explained in high detail and at a good pace. Excellent instructor and would highly recommend for future training sessions and presentations.
It is obvious that Seth is very knowledgeable and is able to answer questions with justifications. His presenting style is very engaging.
