Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) Course Overview


Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) is a course designed to help IT professionals prepare for the Cisco Certified Network Associate Security (CCNA Security) exam. The SCOR course is designed to cover the topics of security protocols, encryption and authentication, network security, virtualization and cloud security, IPS/IDS, and security management. In addition, the SCOR course provides students with a DCN Lab Experience to not only build foundational knowledge but to ensure students have hands-on experience with security solutions.
The course is divided into four distinct areas that include both lectures and various labs:
1. Security Fundamentals: This part of the course focuses on establishing a basic understanding of security protocols, encryption, authentication and how to apply them to networks.
2. Network Security: Students learn how to create and configure effective network security solutions and how to identify and address a range of threats.
3. IPS/IDS: In this section, students become familiar with Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and the concepts related to them.
4. Security Management: This section includes an introduction to the principles of security management and the importance of implementing a risk assessment process.
By the end of this course, students should be able to demonstrate their knowledge of the topics covered and have the ability to apply their knowledge to evaluated real-world security scenarios.

Says our CEO-
“It is an interesting story and dates back half a century. My father started a manufacturing business in India in the 1960's for import substitute electromechanical components such as microswitches. German and Japanese goods were held in high esteem so he named his company Essen Deinki (Essen is a well known industrial town in Germany and Deinki is Japanese for electric company). His products were very good quality and the fact that they sounded German and Japanese also helped. He did quite well. In 1970s he branched out into electronic products and again looked for a German name. This time he chose Koenig, and Koenig Electronics was born. In 1990s after graduating from college I was looking for a name for my company and Koenig Solutions sounded just right. Initially we had marketed under the brand of Digital Equipment Corporation but DEC went out of business and we switched to the Koenig name. Koenig is difficult to pronounce and marketeers said it is not a good choice for a B2C brand. But it has proven lucky for us.” – Says Rohit Aggarwal (Founder and CEO - Koenig Solutions)
All our trainers are fluent in English . Majority of our customers are from outside India and our trainers speak in a neutral accent which is easily understandable by students from all nationalities. Our money back guarantee also stands for accent of the trainer.
Medical services in India are at par with the world and are a fraction of costs in Europe and USA. A number of our students have scheduled cosmetic, dental and ocular procedures during their stay in India. We can provide advice about this, on request.
Yes, if you send 4 participants, we can offer an exclusive training for them which can be started from Any Date™ suitable for you.
