What you’ll learn in this course
The Implementing Cisco SD-WAN Security and Cloud Solutions (SDWSCS) v1.0 course is an advanced training course focused on Cisco SD-WAN security and cloud services. Through a series of labs and lectures you will learn about on-box security services, including application-aware enterprise firewall, intrusion prevention, URL filtering, malware protection, and Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Socket Layer (SSL) decryption. You will also learn about cloud integration with multiple cloud service providers across multiple use cases.
Additionally, the course labs will allow you to configure and deploy local security services and cloud security services with the Cisco Umbrella Secure Internet Gateway (SIG), as well as integrate the Cisco SD-WAN fabric with a cloud service provider using the Cisco vManage automated workflows.
The course lab environment is built using Cisco Catalyst 8000v IOS XE routers and Cisco SD-WAN 20.7 code, and it includes the integration of Cisco FirePOWER Threat Defense for network security and Cisco ThousandEyes for network monitoring.
The course will allow you to earn 24 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
