CCNA Cyber Ops in Pakistan Training & Certifications

CCNA Cybersecurity Operations

Today, emboldened cybercriminals are tapping into legitimate online resources. They leach server capacity, steal data, and demand ransoms from online victims whose information they hold hostage. The explosive growth in Internet traffic-driven largely by faster mobile speeds and the proliferation of online devices- works in their favor by helping to expand the attack surface. Facing mounting challenges from cybercrime, cyberespionage, insider threats, and advanced persistent threats, organizations are establishing SOC teams of security professionals who can monitor, detect, and respond rapidly to security incidents before they cause damage.

Gain Career Ready Cyber Security Skills

“Demand for cybersecurity professionals is expected to rise to 6 million globally by 2019.” (One Million Cybersecurity Job Openings in 2016, Forbes). Students can get ready for this in-demand job market by gaining career ready cyber security knowledge and skills from the CCNA Cybersecurity Operations curriculum. The CCNA Cybersecurity Operations curriculum provides a first step in acquiring the knowledge and skills needed to work with a SOC team, and can be a valuable part of beginning a career in the exciting and growing field of cybersecurity operations. The curriculum helps prepare students for entry-level cybersecurity career opportunities and is aligned to the Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Fundamentals exam (210-250 SECFND) and Implementing Cisco Cybersecurity Operations exam (210-255 SECOPS) leading to the Cisco CCNA Cybersecurity Operations certification.

The course provides practical, relevant and job-ready skills aligned closely with the specific tasks expected of SOC professionals through the following components:

• Interactive, multimedia content

• Activities, virtual hands-on lab, Packet Tracer activities that reinforce learning

• Links to articles and websites for enhanced learning on specific topics

• Quizzes and exams to check students understanding of the information covered

Cyber Security Careers Cybersecurity operations jobs play a key part of securing information systems through the monitoring, detecting, investigating, analyzing, and responding to security events, thus protecting systems from cybersecurity risks, threats, and vulnerabilities. Such jobs are among the fastest-growing roles in IT, as organizations set up security operations centers (SOCs), and establish teams to monitor and respond to security incidents. CCNA Cybersecurity Operations is delivered through the Cisco NetAcad.com learning environment. Instructors can enroll students and teach the course through the same process used for other NetAcad™ courses.
