Certified Network Defender

Train for Next-Generation Network Security



EC-Council Certified Network Defender (C|ND) Program ?

EC-Council's Certified Network Defender (C|ND) is an essential vender-neutral network security certification for every IT and systems administrator who needs to operate with a secure mindset

Students will learn the critical skills requires to defend their networks and operating enviroments across local networks, endpoints, cloud infrastructure, applications, OT, and mobile. they will also acquire knowledge of effective proper log analysis, network traffic monitoring, basic investigation and response, as well as business continuity and disaster recovery. Additionally, they will drive into business continuity and disaster recovery. Additionally, they will dive into threats, analyzing the attack surface, and studying threat prediction and threat intelligence as it relates to their administration and defense responsibilities.

Often referred to as blue-teaming, C|NDs will be able to apply defense and countermesaure strategies in their orginizations, playing a critical role not only in attack prevention but also in detection, response, and remediation as they configure networks and systems to operate securely. The C|ND program will cover the concepts and fortify skills through hands-on practice across over 100+ labs delivered on live target machines.

The C|ND program designed by industry experts prepares network defeders with strategic, technological, and operational network security capabilities, enabling them to design, develop, and maintain secure networks.
