CCNA Security helps students develop the skills needed to succeed in IT-related degree programs and prepare for the CCNA Security certification. It provides a theoretically rich, hands-on introduction to network security, in a logical sequence driven by technologies.

The goals of CCNA Security are as follows:

  • Provide an in-depth, theoretical understanding of network security
  • Provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary to design and support network security
  • Provide an experience-oriented course that employs industry-relevant instructional approaches to prepare students for associate-level jobs in the industry
  • Enable students to have significant hands-on interaction with IT equipment to prepare them for certification exams and career opportunities

Upon completion of the CCNA Security course, students will be able to perform the following tasks:

  • Describe the security threats facing modern network infrastructures
  • Secure network device access
  • Implement AAA on network devices
  • Mitigate threats to networks using ACLs
  • Implement secure network management and reporting
  • Mitigate common Layer 2 attacks
  • Implement the Cisco IOS firewall feature set
  • Implement the Cisco IOS IPS feature set
  • Implement site-to-site IPSec VPNs
  • Administer effective security policies
