Cisco Certified CyberOps (Cybersecurity Operations) Associate 國際認可證書課程

信息安全在今天扮演舉足輕重的角色，稍有不慎就會釀成信息安全事故，直接為企業帶來財務和非財務損失。

Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate 認證知識範圍包括安全概念 (Security Concepts)、安全監控 (Security Monitoring)、基於主機的分析 (Host-Based Analysis)、網絡入侵分析 (Network Intrusion Analysis) 和安全政策和規程 (Security Policies and Procedures)。這都是現代信息安全的重要而基礎的課題。

為了能證明你有上述的專業知識，Cisco 便推出其 Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate (思科 CyberOps 工程師) 國際認可考試。本中心的 Cisco Certified CyberOps (Cybersecurity Operations) Associate 國際認可證書課程 由 Franco 籌備多時，精心編排。由上堂、溫習、實習、考試研習、做試題至最後考試，均為你度身訂造，作出有系統的編排。務求令你能夠學習相關知識的同時，又能考取認證。
