Overview As network security threats continue to increase in complexity, multi-gigabit environments and efficient network intrusion security solutions have become critical for maintaining a high level of protection. The Cisco Intrusion Detection Services Module (IDSM-2) works in conjunction with other Cisco IDS and IPS components to efficiently protect your data infrastructure.
In this course, you will learn how to design and deploy an IDSM solution, capture traffic, configure blocking rules, and tune IDS signatures.
This course is delivered as part of the Global Knowledge and Firefly strategic alliance, providing delegates with the latest in Data Center technology.
