Course overview

Download the course datasheetThe full outline for Cisco CCNP Security - Securing Networks with Cisco Firewalls (SNCF), as a PDF.
thinQtank® Learning is offering a unique five-day training camp comprised of five days of instructor-led learning that gives students the knowledge and skills needed to deploy, configure and manage Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense and Management Center: firewall modes and HA, access control and intrusion policies with Snort 3, NAT and VPN, troubleshooting, and integration with Secure Endpoint and XDR.

The camp follows the exam outline Cisco publishes for this certification, with hands-on labs on real and virtual Cisco gear throughout. SNCF is a CCNP Security concentration exam. Cisco splits its training across two courses (SFWIPF and SFWIPA); this camp covers the full exam outline in one week.

Cisco, CCST, CCNA, CCNP and CCDE are trademarks or registered trademarks of Cisco Systems, Inc.
