The CCNA Security Training delivers the candidates with essential skills to secure Cisco networks. It confirms with the skills required by a delegate to develop a security set-up. This includes recognising risks and exposures to networks, and decrease any security threats. The CCNA Security has the necessary content that familiarizes the candidate with security technologies. The curriculum also helps to maintain data and device integrity, confidentiality, and availability. It also helps the delegates to acquire competency in the technologies Cisco uses in its security structure.

Who should take this course

The target audience for this CCNA Security Training course includes candidates who wish to make a career in network security. They include  support engineers, network security specialists or administrators. This is one of the significant courses in their path to achieving success.

 

Prerequisites

The candidates who wish to take this course must fulfill the following criteria:

  • Posses a  CCENT Certification or t possess ICND1  v3.0 Certification.
  • Also, an experience of 2 years is recommended (but not a prerequisite) by Cisco before appearing for the exam.

 This training includes two courses ICND1 and Applying Cisco IOS Networking Security. In case the candidate has already taken the ICND1 certification, they can  continue with  Implementing Cisco IOS Networking Security.

What's included

  Course Overview

The candidates lay their basis for doing the CCNA Security Training by choosing for the ICND1 ver 3.0 course. During this course, candidates learn how to install, configure, operate, and confirm a basic IPv4 and IPv6 network. Delegates also learn to  configure a LAN switch, and an IP router. They also learn to  manage network devices, and identifying primary security threats. This course can also be followed or even substituted by CCENT (Cisco Certified Entry Network Technician). The course delivers knowledge and skills necessary to install, configure, and operate  networks. CCENT is the first step toward achieving CCNA certifications that lead to various paths. These paths  enable the delegates to work with medium-size enterprise branch networks with more complex connections.
