Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals (CBROPS)

Cisco - Security

The Understanding Cisco Cybersecurity Operations Fundamentals (CBROPS) training provides an understanding of the network infrastructure devices, operations, and vulnerabilities of the TCP/IP protocol suite, and basic information security concepts, common network application operations and attacks, the Windows and Linux operating systems, and the types of data that are used to investigate security incidents. After completing this training, you will have the basic knowledge that is required to perform the job role of an associate-level cybersecurity analyst in a threat-centric security operations center (SOC).

This training prepares you for the 200-201 CBROPS v1.2 exam. If passed, you earn the Cisco Certified Cybersecurity Associate certification and the role of a junior or entry-level cybersecurity operations analyst in a SOC. How You'll Benefit

This training will help you:

Learn the fundamental skills, techniques, technologies, and the hands-on practice necessary to prevent and defend against cyberattacks as part of a SOC team
Prepare for the 200-201 CBROPS v1.2 exam
Earn 30 CE credits toward recertification
What to Expect in the Exam

The 200-201 CBROPS exam is a 120-minute assessment for the Cisco Certified CyberOps Associate certification and is aligned with the associate-level cybersecurity operations analyst job role. The CBROPS exam tests a candidate’s knowledge and skills related to security concepts, security monitoring, host-based analysis, network intrusion analysis, and security policies and procedures.
