CCNP Security Certification and
Training
Introduction:
Software and networking become more and more interconnected every day, creating
ever greater need for robust, scalable security across all platforms—from networks
to mobile devices. With intent-based networking, security teams can take advantage
of automation to scale their security solutions. To capitalize on these opportunities,
today’s security professionals need a broader range of skills and deeper focus in
strategic technology areas. The CCNP Security certification program gives you exactly
that breadth and depth.
CCNP Security certification was designed to help you prove your skills in the
ever-changing landscape of security technologies. The certification covers core
technologies and a security focus area of your choice. You choose where you want to
focus. You choose where to take your career.
To earn CCNP Security, you pass two exams: a core exam and a security concentration exam of your choice. And now every exam in the CCNP Security program earns an individual Specialist certification, so you get recognized for your accomplishments along the way.
- The core exam focuses on your knowledge of security infrastructure. The core exam is also the qualifying exam for CCIE Security certification. Passing this exam helps toward earning both of these certifications.
- Concentration exams focus on emerging and industry-specific topics. You can prepare for concentration exams by taking their corresponding Cisco training courses.
