CCIE Security Training Course with Hands-On Lab Practice

This CCIE security training program prepares you for both the SCOR 350-701 written exam and the demanding 8-hour CCIE Security v6.1 lab exam.

Here’s the reality. CCIE Security is one of the toughest Cisco certifications to earn. Only about 6,000 professionals hold this certification worldwide. And with the average CCIE Security salary sitting around $166,000 a year, it’s no surprise this cert is in high demand. The lab exam tests your ability to plan, design, deploy, operate, and optimize complex security solutions under extreme time pressure.

Our CCIE security course follows Cisco’s official v6.1 exam blueprint. But we don’t just teach exam topics. We show you how these technologies work in production environments. The kind of knowledge that makes you valuable to employers.

What makes this different? Live instruction from working CCIE Security engineers. Not pre-recorded videos from years ago. Real experts answering your questions in real-time. Stuck on an ISE policy configuration? Ask during class. Confused about Firepower correlation rules? Your instructor walks you through it.Out of all CCIE training tracks, Security requires the widest range of hands-on skills.

The CCIE Security v6.1 certification covers five major domains. Perimeter Security and Intrusion Prevention (20%), Secure Connectivity and Segmentation (20%), Security Infrastructure (15%), Identity Management and Access Control (25%), and Advanced Threat Protection (20%). Our training covers each domain with hands-on labs that mirror real exam scenarios.

Unlike pre-recorded courses, our live sessions let you interact with instructors and other students. This collaborative environment accelerates learning and helps you understand complex topics faster.
