Overview

Firebrand Training Official Cisco Learning Partner

This certification retired on 24th February 2020. Our closest replacement is CCNA.

Get both your CCENT and CCNA Security certifications in just 8 days in this accelerated dual course. That's 20% faster than traditional training. You'll gain the knowledge and skills to install, operate and troubleshoot a small enterprise branch network, including basic network security.

ICND1 gives you the skills needed for entry-level network support positions and is the starting point for many successful careers in networking. CCNA Security introduces you to the core network security technologies.

ICND1 v2.0 is the latest version and includes many new updates. Several topics have been moved from ICND2 into ICND1, while some topics, such as RIP and wireless, have been removed from the curriculum. Course content has been updated to Cisco IOS Software Release 15. All configuration commands are introduced through examples and supported with lab exercises. All labs are developed with new pod topology and new networking gear.

With a CCNA Security certification, you'll have the skills needed to develop a security infrastructure, recognise threats and vulnerabilities to networks, and mitigate security threats. You'll learn core security technologies, the installation, troubleshooting and monitoring of network devices to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data and devices, and competency in the technologies that Cisco uses in its security structure.
