Program Overview

Cisco Enterprise Networking

Enterprise-grade security infrastructure — Cisco ISE, Next-Gen Firewalls, content security, identity services, and advanced threat protection.

Official Certification Track: This curriculum prepares candidates directly for the Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (350-701 SCOR) examination. Instruction incorporates real-world scenario troubleshooting, architectural best practices, and enterprise security compliance.

Curriculum & Course Outline

5 Intensive Hands-on Modules designed for mastery:

Module 1: Enterprise Cybersecurity Architecture & Zero Trust

Part 01

Establish proactive zero-trust defensive boundaries across modern enterprises.

  • Zero Trust Network Architecture (ZTNA) principles and NIST guidelines
  • Threat landscape: Advanced Persistent Threats (APT), ransomware mitigation, and supply chain attacks
  • Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) deployment, certificate authorities, and mutual TLS
  • Cloud security posture management and secure hybrid enterprise connectivity

Module 2: Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Deep Dive

Part 02

Control network access dynamically based on identity, device posture, and context.

  • Cisco ISE personas: Policy Administration Node (PAN), Monitoring (MnT), and Policy Service (PSN)
  • Active Directory and LDAP external identity store integration
  • 802.1X wired and wireless access authentication, EAP-TLS, and PEAP protocols
  • MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) fallback for non-802.1X printers and IoT devices

Module 3: Endpoint Profiling, Posture Assessment & Quarantine

Part 03

Classify connected devices automatically and enforce strict health compliance.

  • Device profiling probes: DHCP, RADIUS, SNMP, and HTTP user-agent sniffing
  • Cisco AnyConnect ISE Posture module: Antivirus verification, OS patches, and registry checks
  • Quarantine and remediation workflows for non-compliant endpoints
  • Guest lifecycle management: Sponsored guest access, self-registration, and hotspot portals

Module 4: Cisco Firepower Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW)

Part 04

Deploy advanced threat defense with deep application visibility and control.

  • Firepower Management Center (FMC) architecture and managed devices
  • Pre-filter policies, Access Control Policies (ACP), and Security Intelligence feeds
  • Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System (NGIPS) Snort rule tuning
  • SSL/TLS Decryption policies for inbound and outbound threat inspection

Module 5: Cisco TrustSec Micro-Segmentation & VPN Clustering

Part 05

Isolate network zones logically without relying on cumbersome IP access lists.

  • Cisco TrustSec architecture: Security Group Tags (SGT) and Security Group ACLs (SGACL)
  • SXP (SGT Exchange Protocol) across non-TrustSec transit networks
  • High-availability Cisco AnyConnect VPN clustering with load balancing
  • SIEM integration, Syslog forwarding, and automated incident response
Physical Lab Infrastructure

100% Hands-on Hardware & Real Equipment

Cisco ISE Virtual Appliance, Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC), Cisco Stealthwatch, and AnyConnect VPN Security Cluster

Physical Consoles Dedicated student console access to enterprise Cisco routers and switches
Troubleshooting Labs Configured fault scenarios to build realistic diagnostic muscle memory
Extended Lab Access Extra lab hours available for practice outside regular lecture times
