Overview
The Securing Networks with Cisco Routers and Switches (SECURE)
1.0 course is an expert-led course aimed at providing network
security engineers with the knowledge and skills needed to secure
Cisco IOS Software router- and switch-based networks, and provide
security services based on Cisco IOS Software. Successful graduates
will be able to secure the network environment using existing Cisco
IOS Software features, as well as install and configure components
of the Cisco IOS Software, such as zone-based policy firewall,
Cisco IOS Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), user-based firewall,
secure tunnels using IP Security (IPsec) virtual private network
(VPN) technology including public key infrastructure (PKI), virtual
tunnel interface / dynamic virtual tunnel interface (VTI / DVTI),
Group Encrypted Transport VPN (GET VPN), Dynamic Multipoint Virtual
Private Network (DMVPN), Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN, and
advanced switch security features. The course focuses on the
implementation and troubleshooting aspects of the lifecycle
services approach, adding some elements of the design phase as
well.
