CyberOps Professional — Cisco Certified CyberOps Professional
Cisco's advanced SOC certification requiring two exams (350-201 core + one concentration), covering advanced threat analysis, SOC operations, automation, forensics, and threat hunting at a senior level. DoD 8140 approved and recognized in enterprise and government environments. Significantly more rigorous than CyberOps Associate but less commonly seen in job requirements than GCIH or GCFA for senior SOC roles. Strong choice for practitioners in Cisco-heavy environments who want to progress within the Cisco certification ecosystem. The two-exam requirement increases cost and time investment compared to single-exam alternatives.
