CISSP® - Communications and Network Security
This course will help you to earn your CISSP® and deep-dive into the Communications and Network Security domain of the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP®) certification.
What you'll learn
If you want to learn practical communications and network security skills while preparing for your CISSP®, this course will show you how! Deep dive into the Communications and Network Security domain of the Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP®) certification. You'll gain knowledge and skills in the areas of secure network architecture and design as well as supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA). Next, you'll go over network protocols and securing their components. Finally, you'll learn more about communication channels and network attacks. By the end of this course, you will be more prepared for the CISSP exam and you'll also be more knowledgeable when it comes to communications and network security.
