Cisco IPS Training Securing Networks Using Intrusion Prevention Systems CCSP Certification Training
 The Securing Networks using Intrusion Prevention Systems IPS Certification exam is one
of the exams associated with the Cisco Certified Security Professional CCSP Certification and the Cisco IPS Specialist certifications. Candidates can prepare for this exam by
taking the IPS 5.0 course. This exam includes simulations and tests a candidate's knowledge and ability to describe, configure, verify and manage the Cisco Intrusion Prevention System appliance products.
Certification Course Overview
IPS training course teaches the knowledge and skills needed to design install and
configure a Cisco Intrusion Prevention solution for small medium and enterprise networks. The course covers several
platforms including the Cisco 4200 series sensors the Catalyst 6500 series Intrusion Detection System Module 2 (IDSM2)
and the Network Module for Cisco 2600/3600/3700 Routers and Cisco 2800/3800 Integrated Services Routers. The Device
Manager is used to configure and manage Cisco Intrusion Prevention System sensor platforms and view and respond to the alarms.
Audience
This course is a necessity for any student tasked with implementing or maintaining a secure network. IPS is also
important for candidates seeking Cisco security certifications. The primary audience for this course is as follows:
Engineers and technicians who implement and maintain Intrusion Protection System solutions and Technicians and Engineers who support sales of Cisco Intrusion Protection System and security product solutions
