News Release: College Adds Security Certification

College of DuPage has added the Cisco Certified Networking Associate (CCNA) Security certificate to its diverse offerings from the Computer and Internetworking Technologies program.

The CCNA Security certificate updates the knowledge required to install, troubleshoot and monitor Cisco security network devices. It also increases skills for such career options as network security specialist and security administrator.

According to a recent study by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Cisco, “dedicated security roles are expected in 80 percent of the companies studied within the next five years,” explained Joanne Wagner, College of DuPage instructor.

“The increased dependence on and importance of our networks, the increased number and sophistication of attacks, lack of trained personnel and security awareness, mobile commerce and wireless technologies, and legislation and compliance issues are all driving the demand for dedicated security roles within IT,” Wagner said. “The new CCNA Security curriculum provides the basic training that will give people the tools to succeed in an IT security position.”

In 2008, Cisco Systems developed a new CCNA Security curriculum. This fall, College of DuPage began offering the curriculum as one of five courses required for the 15-credit-hour certificate program. Students who complete the CCNA Security course can sit for the 640-553 Implementing Cisco IOS Network Security exam, a stepping stone for key security jobs.

Wagner said the College’s students already are praising the addition as an important component to their job search in today’s marketplace.

“We cannot eliminate risks completely, but we can reduce vulnerabilities through device hardening, good design, and awareness of TCP/IP weaknesses,” Wagner said. “This certificate will give our students an edge over the competition.”
