This comprehensive VMware® training class includes the equivalent of seven VMware® direct classes in one.
Cloud computing is currently top of the list for IT spend, but 50% of servers that move from physical to virtual environments become less secure.
A critical and often overlooked aspect of migrating to a virtualized environment is setting up security effectively. Virtualization technologies are not secure “out of the box” and VMware® is no exception. The VMware® Hacking Uncovered / Advanced Security course focuses on where the vulnerabilities lie, and how to reduce the threat of attack in a virtualized environment.
This course goes well beyond the typical security protocol administrators’ use to secure their current environment; it delves much deeper into the actual workings and shortcomings of the VMware® environment.
You'll learn about all components of the vSphere environment. From the virtual CPU to the storage devices attached to your host, and everything in between. Critically, you'll understand how a cyber criminal could infiltrate your virtual environment, and how to prevent this.
This VMware® training course is intensive, with about 50% of your time spent in labs. You'll learn about these VMware® products:
- ESX 4.x
- ESXi 4.x
- vCenter 4.x
- ESXi 5.x
- vCenter 5.x
- vCloud Director

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

Benefits of certification determined through studies do not guarantee any particular personal successes.
