There is often confusion about why there are intrusion prevention devices when we already have firewalls. Aren't these devices doing the same thing? In this course, you'll learn the differences between these network security functions and tools. You'll also look at some specialized devices in more detail, including the Web Security Appliance and the Email Security Appliance. You'll move on to explore how you can deploy the ASA and Firepower in different ways like routed or transparent mode. Next, you'll learn about NetFlow and Flexible NetFlow, valuable tools for monitoring the flows of data through your network. You'll also see how you can safely leverage the power of Flexible NetFlow to help control your network. Finally, you'll learn about techniques for adding segmentation to your network, including EPGs in Cisco ACI and SGTs. This course can be used in preparation for the 350-701: Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR) certification exam.
