Course
Name: Implementing Automation for Cisco Security Solutions (SAUI) v1.0

Duration:
3 Days

What you’ll learn in this course:

The Implementing Automation for Cisco Security Solutions
(SAUI) v1.0 course teaches you how to design advanced automated security
solutions for your network. Through a combination of lessons and hands-on labs,
you will master the use of modern programming concepts, RESTful Application
Program Interfaces (APIs), data models, protocols, firewalls, web, Domain Name
System (DNS), cloud, email security, and Cisco® Identity Services Engine (ISE)
to strengthen cybersecurity for your web services, network, and devices. You
will learn to work within the following platforms: Cisco Firepower® Management
Center, Cisco Firepower Threat Defense, Cisco ISE, Cisco pxGrid, Cisco
Stealthwatch® Enterprise, Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud, Cisco Umbrella®, Cisco
Advanced Malware Protection (AMP), Cisco Threat grid, and Cisco Security
Management Appliances. This course will teach you when to use the API for each
Cisco security solution to drive network efficiency and reduce complexity.

This course prepares you for 300-735 Automating and
Programming Cisco Security Solutions (SAUTO) certification exam.

How you’ll benefit:

• Gain the knowledge and skills to use automation and
  programmability to design more efficient networks, increase scalability, and
  protect against cyberattacks
• Learn how to create APIs to streamline cloud-based, network
  security solutions for your organization
• Prepares you for the 300-735 SAUTO exam
