The Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert (CCIE) Certification from Cisco Systems is the most prestigious certification in the networking industry. In 2001, Cisco introduced the CCIE in Security. This exam, a combination of a written qualification exam with a one-day intensive lab exam is a highly sought-after affirmation of a networker's security skills.

A key to success in the intensive lab exam is hands-on understanding of how the security principles and concepts are executed in a real network. CCIE Practical Studies: Security (CCIE Self-Study) provides a series of lab scenarios that help a CCIE candidate or advanced-level networker gain that expertise. The labs show how different concepts are applied, with or without a lab of actual equipment. Chapters include background and technology overviews, directions on how to set up a practice lab, case study-based scenarios that show the step-by-step implementation of these concepts, and comprehensive labs that mimic those in the one-day lab exam. CCIE Practical Studies: Security (CCIE Self-Study) serves as an invaluable guide in gaining networking security experience and in CCIE testing success.
