Description
The Securing Networks with Cisco Firepower Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System (SSFIPS) v3.0 is a 4-day instructor-led, lab-intensive course that introduces learners to the basic next-generation intrusion prevention system (NGIPS) and firewall security concepts. The course then leads learners through the Cisco Firepower system. Among other powerful features, learners become familiar with in-depth event analysis, NGIPS tuning and configuration, as well as Snort rules language.
By the end of this course learners become familiar with the latest platform features, such as file and malware inspection, security intelligence, domain awareness, and more.
The course begins by introducing the system architecture, the latest major features, and the role of policies in implementing the solution. Learners learn how to manage deployed devices and perform basic Cisco Firepower discovery, and can describe how to use and configure Cisco NGIPS technology, including application control, security intelligence, firewall, and network-based malware and file controls. Learners can also take advantage of powerful tools so that they can carry out more efficient event analysis, including the detection of file type and network-based malware, and learn how to properly tune systems for better performance and greater network intelligence.
The course finishes with system and user administration tasks.
This course is part of a portfolio of security courses designed to help businesses support and maintain their Cisco Firepower systems.
This course can be delivered in a classroom as well as virtually. When delivered virtually the length of the course is extended to 5 days.
