Implementing Cisco Network Security v3.0 (IINS)

  COURSE CONTENT

Security is a top priority for virtually every organization. It is mission-critical for enterprises to secure their infrastructure from malicious attacks. This newly developed IINS course prepares you to design, implement and monitor network security in a more holistic approach. You will learn to perform basic tasks to secure a network using Cisco IOS devices and ASA appliance though the CLI interface.

Notable differences between IINS v2.0 and v3.0

There are several notable changes in this newly updated course. Cisco Configuration Professional is not covered in IINS 3.0. All IOS examples are hands-on and done using the IOS CLI. IPv6 is not covered in IINS 3.0. IPv6 is now covered in ICND1. The implementation of IPS on IOS is not covered in IINS 3.0, instead IPS is covered on the theoretical level from the perspective of FirePower technologies. Site-to-Site VPN configuration is covered on both IOS and the Cisco ASA in IINS 3.0. Also, modern malware examples are included in this course and cryptographic techniques use stronger hashing and encryption algorithms and current versions of IOS, Cisco ASA and Cisco AnyConnect are featured.
