PIX Certification in the Real World

Security is always an interesting and exciting field in the real world. Everyone seems to want more and more protection from hackers and other security threats, and firewalls help provide a small piece of the massive security puzzle required to protect a network.

Networking engineers are always taxed with the normal duties of maintaining a network solution for a company. The firewall configuration can be a tricky item to set up, configure, and maintain. Many companies might look outside to find a certified solution when installing a firewall system. Having a system set up by a specialist gives a company the assurance that everything is being done to help protect its network. Becoming certified on such a device and even becoming a specialist will increase your knowledge in security and your worth to a company and provide a better solution when you need to set up a firewall system.

As a Cisco PIX Firewall Specialist, you will have a better understanding of the threats facing a network and the countermeasures you can use to defend against them.

Choosing Cisco Systems Career Certification helps to expand your knowledge learned from the CCNA days into the next level of understanding security defense.
