IPV6 Security Course Overview

IPV6 Security Course Overview

The IPv6 Security course is designed to provide comprehensive knowledge and skills needed to secure networks as the world transitions from IPv4 to IPv6. By exploring the differences and new features of IPv6, learners will understand why IPv6 is required and the improvements it offers over IPv4, including a vastly expanded address space, enhanced performance, and better security.

IPv6 security training is essential as it delves into specific security threats unique to IPv6, such as address architecture vulnerabilities and extension header issues, and equips learners with the knowledge to mitigate these threats. The course covers a range of security features intrinsic to IPv6, including Privacy Addresses, RA-Guard, and Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND), among others.

Additionally, learners will acquire practical skills in configuring IPv6 firewalls, implementing security for IPv6 transitions, and managing dual-stack environments. With targeted lessons on security threats, features, and firewall configurations, this course is critical for IT professionals ensuring the integrity and security of modern IPv6 networks.
