Securing today's mission-critical networks requires a ready and able workforce to address current threats and vulnerabilities. Cisco is committed to keeping its portfolio of security courses and exams current so that organizations can have confidence in the competency of their Cisco trained and certified workforce.
Security Exam Updates
Today, updated certification exams for SECUR, CSPFA, CSVPN, and CSI will be available and a new CSIDS exam will be available on October 7, 2003. These exam updates represent Cisco's continuing efforts to ensure that certification exams effectively validate the most current industry knowledge.

Two New Security Design Courses
Cisco is proud to announce the newest additions to the Security training catalogue: Designing Perimeter Security (DPS) 1.0 and Designing VPN Security (DVS) 1.0. Through the use of in-depth case studies that reinforce secure design principles, these courses teach students how to design secure network perimeters and secure connectivity. While these courses are not part of any Cisco Security certification, they do provide students with additional learning opportunities focused specifically on security design.
The DPS and DVS courses, as well as all other Cisco Security training, are offered through the global network of authorized Cisco Learning Partners. To search for instructor-led training and e-learning options, use the Learning Locator visit
