Cisco CCNA Security Certification - Overview

The Cisco CCNA Security course is designed to provide staff with an introduction to core security technologies. Through a combination of classroom lecture and practical exercises students will be able to develop security policies and protect their IT infrastructure. The course is based upon applying security through the features of Cisco’s IOS (Internetwork Operating System). The CCNA Security certification is a required step towards the CCSP (Cisco Certified Security Professional).

Course Objectives

The primary objective is for delegates to gain a working knowledge of network security concepts and practices including:

  • Configuring Cisco routers using IOS Software security features
  • Configuring network devices to restrict access
  • Maintaining the integrity of network traffic
  • Configuring Intrusion Protection on Cisco devices
  • Configuring site-to site VPNs
  • Firewall features on Cisco devices

Other accelerated training providers rely heavily on lecture and independent self-testing and study.

Effective technical instruction must be highly varied and interactive to keep attention levels high, promote camaraderie and teamwork between the students and instructor, and solidify knowledge through hands-on learning.

Firebrand Training provides instruction to meet every learning need, including

  • Intensive group instruction
  • One-on-one instruction attention
  • Hands-on labs
  • Lab partner and group exercises
  • Question and answer drills
  • Independent study

This information has been provided as a helpful tool for candidates considering certification. Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes. Firebrand Training provides a guarantee of obtaining certification at the camp, but does not make any guarantees about personal successes or benefits of obtaining certification.
