CRISC 2023: Firewalls

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Security firewalls can determine what type of network traffic to allow or deny into and out of networks and hosts. Intrusion detection systems notify technicians of suspicious activity. Begin this course by discovering firewall types like next-generation firewall (NGFW) and web application firewall (WAF) and examining their use cases. Then you will configure Windows Defender Firewall and learn how to manage a Linux-based firewall solution. Next, you will manage a cloud-based firewall, explore proxy servers, and deploy the Squid proxy server on Linux. Finally, you will investigate intrusion detection and prevention and install Snort on Linux. This course can be used to prepare for the ISACA® Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC®) certification.
