Implementing Advanced Cisco Unified Wireless Security v1.0 (IAUWS)

Implementing Advanced Cisco Unified Wireless Security (IAUWS) v1.0 is a five-day day instructor-led course, designed to help students prepare for the CCNP® wireless certification, a professional-level certification specialising in the wireless field. The goal of the course is to provide network professional with information to prepare them to secure the wireless network from security threats via appropriate security policies and best practices, as well as ensure the proper implementation of security standards and proper configuration of security components. The IAUWS reinforces the instruction by providing students with hand-on labs to ensure students thoroughly understand how to secure a network.
