Network Security

There has never been a greater need for professionals trained in network security. In today’s world, everything is a target—from routers and switches to applications and even poorly managed security devices. Companies are frequently attacked through their connections to remote users or business partners with a less stringent security policy or implementation. Companies, governments, and organizations must guard against hackers, outsiders, and even disgruntled employees who threaten their information security, integrity and daily business operations.

This course prepares students to take the SECUR (Securing Cisco IOS Networks) and CSPFA (Cisco Secure PIX Firewall Advanced) exams in preparation for the Cisco Firewall Specialist.
