SSFSNORT | Securing Cisco Networks with Open Source Snort
 
The Securing Cisco Networks with Open Source Snort (SSFSNORT) training shows you how to deploy a network intrusion detection system based on Snort. Through a combination of expert instruction and hands-on practice, you will learn how to install, configure, operate, and manage a Snort system. You will also explore rules writing with an overview of basic options, advanced rules writing, how to configure PulledPork, and how to use OpenAppID to provide protection of your network from malware. You will learn techniques of tuning and performance monitoring, traffic flow through Snort rules, and more.
 
This training also earns you 32 Continuing Education (CE) credits toward recertification.
