| Introduction | CWNA™ is the foundation of the CWNP™ program. Covering a broad range of wireless networking topics, CWNA™ brings IT professionals who are new to wireless networking up to speed quickly. For those individuals already familiar with wireless LANs, earning the CWNA™ certification fills in any gaps in their knowledge. CWSP™ measures the IT professional's knowledge of how to defend a wireless LAN from intruders. The material presented for CWSP™ will help lead to a successful implementation of a wireless network within an enterprise by educating the network engineer in necessary tools and processes available for securing wireless networks. Students will learn basic and advanced processes and techniques for keeping the enterprise wireless network data secure. |
|
| Audience | This course is designed for Network Administrators and Network Engineers that are interested in furthering their knowledge of Wireless technologies.
This course can also be taken by individuals that are interested in obtaining the CWNA™ or CWSP™ Certification. |
|
| At Course Completion | By the end of the course, students will have covered:
Radio Frequency (RF) Technologies
Wireless LAN Technologies
Implementation and Management
Security
