  • Evaluating Network Security Policy and Security Posture Assessment
  • Designing the Secure Network using Cisco® Self-Defending Network design principals
  • Applying Cisco® Self-Defending Network design principals to an existing Enterprise Network
  • Securing the applicable Cisco® Self-Defending Network modules, including: Corporate Internet Module, Campus Module, Remote Access Module, WAN Module, Enterprise Edge Module and understanding entrprise Security Management
  • Identity Security - Authentication, Authorization and Accounting with TACACS+ and RADIUS
  • Authentication Proxy and IOS-based IPS
  • Layer 2 Security and Catalyst™ Switch Security
  • Basic ASA™ Security Appliance Configuration and Advanced IOS® Security Feature Set
  • Cisco® Secure Software Configuration

HardHat™ Lab Technologies:

  • The complete line of Cisco® Router and Access Server products used in the Secure Network
  • Cisco® Catalyst™ Switch products used in the Secure Network
  • Cisco® Secure ASA™ Security Appliance and Cisco® Secure VPN products used in the Secure Network
  • Fast Ethernet, WAN connectivity and ISP Connectivity
  • Cisco® Secure ACS™, and popular hacking, vulnerability assessment and scanning tools used to test security

The Interface HardHat™ Experience is a comprehensive, reality-based learning system, which immerses the student in extremely realistic business scenarios and technologies to reinforce the learning process. The “Solutions-Based and Best-Practice Approach,” the premise of the HardHat™ Experience, is used consistently throughout each technology area. Each HardHat™ student will master information regarding how critical technologies are best applied within businesses of varying sizes: Creating solutions you can actually use, understanding why a solution should be chosen, and understanding the variables and implications of each choice made regarding the solution. In addition, by exposing the “Best Practices” of Design, Configuration and Troubleshooting for each target technology area, the student will learn to do things “The Right Way, the First Time” and learn how to identify “Hidden Issues” before they materialize.

To gain confidence and independence in what has been learned; the hands-on exercises in the Interface HardHat™ programs do not follow a prescribed 'recipe-style lab' as many courses do, rather, the labs are ‘Evolutions’ which build to finality with a complete solution, while making the student 'think' in the process. Hands-on time is emphasized and each Lab Evolution engages the student to design, implement and test the full application of the critical technologies being studied. Each HardHat™ student will configure their solutions using live systems and hardware and will always learn directly from our CCIE® Instructors. Upon exit of any Interface HardHat™ Experience, the student will be empowered to immediately apply what they have learned within their own environments."

Each student is in charge of a pod of hardware consisting of live Cisco® Routers, Catalyst™ Switches, technology specific devices, as well as all related connectivity technologies. HardHat™ Lab Equipment List: Cisco® 1800ISR, 2800ISR, 2600XM, and 3600 routers, Catalyst® 6500, 2960, and 3560/3750 switches, Cisco® Unified Wireless devices and APs, ASA5500® Security Appliances, IPS Modules and Sensors, as well as all related connectivity technologies.
