The certification validates the fundamentals needed for associate-level job roles, with one exam and one training course to help you prepare. The exam and training cover knowledge and skills related to security concepts, security monitoring, host-based analysis, network intrusion analysis, and security policies and procedures. From a recognized provider of security solutions and certifications, the CyberOps Associate certification and training program is your pathway to a career in cyber security operations. The CCNP Security certification is designed to help you prove your skills in the ever-changing landscape of security technologies. The program prepares you for today’s professional-level job roles in security technologies.

To earn your CCNP Security, you must pass two exams: a core exam and a concentration exam of your choice. This course bundle includes the core exam and concentration exam.
