Overview

CCNP Security

Learn how to plan and implement end-to-end network security measures on the CCNP Security course. You'll also be able to reduce the risk to your IT infrastructures and applications using Cisco Switches, Cisco ASA, and the router security appliance feature.

This certification proves your skills in the design, deployment, maintenance and management of enterprise wide network security. You'll prepare for and sit four exams at the Firebrand Training Centre. In order to pass, you'll learn about:

  • Configuring and implementing security on Cisco network perimeter edge devices such as a Cisco switch, Cisco router, and Cisco ASA firewall.
  • Various Virtual Private Network (VPN) systems that Cisco has available on the Cisco ASA firewall and Cisco IOS software platforms.
  • The components and architecture of secure access, by utilising 802.1X and Cisco TrustSec.
  • Advanced firewall architecture and configuration with the Cisco next-generation firewall, utilising access and identity policies.

CCNP Security is an evolution of the CCSP (Cisco Certified Security Professional) certification and is aligned specifically to the job role of the Cisco Network Security Engineer.
