As security creeps into every IT job role, there's never been a better time to earn the CCNA Security (or any other security cert). The Cisco CCNA Security certification is an excellent choice for anyone who is looking to further their career as an IT professional. Here's how you can study for this entry-level exam in at least 10 weeks.
CCNA Security certification is widely viewed as a great starting point for learning networking security fundamentals. Earning CCNA requires passing both the Cisco CCENT/ICND1 100-105 and the Cisco CCNA Security 210-260 IINS.
In most circumstances, candidates who are looking to certify their CCNA will have one to three years of experience working with Cisco products. This makes the CCNA a great certification for people with experience who wish to validate their skills, as well as an ideal starting point for those starting out in IT.
Trainer Keith Barker has put together a comprehensive 30-hour, 70-video CCNA Security course. Keith's training maps directly to CCNA Security 210-260 IINS exam objectives. You'll not only be learning new skills, but you'll also be better prepared for exam day.
Everybody's study routines are different. What works for some people might not work for others. We have a general CCNA Security study plan that we provide learners looking to conquer their exam in about 10 weeks. But you might need additional resources or just more time. This is a baseline plan you can tweak to fit your own needs. You'll want lots of hands-on practice for the CCNA Security.
There's a lot of information to take in. So compartmentalize the course into manageable chunks, followed by healthy doses of review, hands-on exercises, and practice exams. By doing this, you should be ready for the exam in about 10 weeks. (That's the theory, anyway.)
Your plan needs to incorporate Kaplan IT Training practice exams. Going into an exam blind is a scary process. You can't adequately prepare for something if you don't know what you are dealing with. Space out practice exams through your training. We recommend three: At the beginning, middle, and end of your studies. Gaining familiarity with the types of questions you're likely to see will make exam day that much less of a scare.
The CCNA Security is an entry-level exam, but you should already have experience. Start off by seeing how much you know by taking a the Kaplan IT Training practice exams. It might seem a bit soon. However, it can help guide your next 10 weeks. Your exam results will provide a baseline in terms of the topics you already have a handle on versus those that might need a little extra time.
The first five nuggets of the CCNA Security course cover basic security implementation principles. The Port Security Concepts and Port Security Implementation training will help you know which ports to lock down. You'll also look at DHCP Snooping Concepts to round things out for the week.
You should have downloaded the supplemental files for the course by now. If not, we'll point you in the right direction.You should also review the Cisco Security 210-260 IINS exam topics. Knowing the exam requirements will keep you thinking in Cisco's hierarchy while you study.
We are just about at the halfway mark, and the finish line is coming into view for you. If you haven't already, it's time to book the exam. The reality of the situation sinks in a little more quickly when you have a date on your calendar. It also helps reinvigorate your will to study if you find your enthusiasm is starting to run low.
This week, watch Nuggets 16-20, which cover ASA Concepts, Integration and Activation. You'll also learn how to build an ASA GNS3 Topology and configure it via the CLI. Have your notebook ready for this one, and fire up your own CLI.
It's also time for you to take another Kaplan IT Training practice exam. Use this practice exam round to identify what you've concepts and terms you've got down so far. Take note of the areas you struggled with, and mark them for further review.
Finally, remember the notes you took from your practice exam results? Get them out. You should start reviewing the content areas you struggled with on the test. You don't want to wait until the week of the real exam to dive into "problem" areas.
This week, you'll explore the world of cryptography and VPNs. Videos 31-35 hone in on IDS and IPS as well. This is another week, we strongly encourage you to lab it up. Or take yet another practice exam.
You've covered a lot of material so far. If you get stuck on a concept, take a break from it and return to it later. Remember, there are plenty of resources available in the Cisco CCNA Security Study Group. Be sure to keep checking in for updates and information when you need a little help.
This opens your schedule up to really start cramming. Anything that still isn't making sense can be pulled apart and learned again until it makes sense. Kaplan IT Training practice exams and labs are very important at this stage. Review, practice, watch, repeat.
There aren't any required videos this week. Rather, you should be addressing all your weak areas. Take the time to rewatch videos, lap it up, or do additional reading. Turn those weak areas into strengths. Use every resource you can to ensure you have a good grip on the material.
You are ready for the big day. Congratulations, it has been a lot of hard work. Hopefully, you're feeling pretty confident. At this point, you should be scoring about 90 percent on practice exams. If there are still areas you're struggling with, you've got a week to hone on them.
