SCOR
Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR)
from Cisco portfolio 2.0 (2020)
The Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) v1.0 class helps you prepare for the Cisco® CCNP® Security and CCIE® Security certifications and for senior-level security roles.
In this class, you should master the skills and technologies you need to implement core Cisco security solutions to provide advanced threat protection against cybersecurity attacks. You will be taught security for networks, cloud and content, endpoint protection, secure network access, visibility, and enforcements.
You will get extensive hands-on experience deploying Cisco Firepower® Next-Generation Firewall and Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Firewall; configuring access control policies, mail policies, and 802.1X Authentication; and more. You will get introductory practice on Cisco Stealthwatch® Enterprise and Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud threat detection features.
This class, including the self-paced material, helps prepare you to take the exam, Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (350-701 SCOR), which leads to the new CCNP Security, CCIE Security, and the Cisco Certified Specialist – Security Core certifications.
The class consists of 5 days’ live Instructor-led Training (ILT), followed by self-study*.
