CCNA Security validates knowledge of security infrastructure, threats and vulnerabilities to networks, and threat mitigation. Skills include installation, troubleshooting and monitoring of network devices to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data and devices and develops competency in "Cisco IOS Network Security"
This certification is earned by passing the IINS 640-553 (Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security, or IINS) exam. The price of the exam is USD$250.
Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security (IINS) v1.0 is a five-day instructor-led course focused on the necessity of a comprehensive security policy and how it affects the posture of the network. Learners will be able to perform basic tasks to secure a small branch type office network using Cisco IOS security features available through web-based GUIs (Cisco Router and Security Device Manager [SDM]) and the command-line interface (CLI) on the Cisco routers and switches. Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security (IINS) v1.0, in conjunction with its prerequisite, Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1 (ICND1) v1.0, will form the recommended training component for this new associate level certification, CCNA Security. IINS v1.0 provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve competency in Cisco security solutions.
