Cisco Certified Network Professional Security (CCNP)
Achieving CCNP Security certification proves your skills with security solutions. To earn CCNP
Security certification, you pass two exams: one that covers core security technologies and one
concentration exam of your choice, so you can customize your certification to your technical
area of focus.
The new CCNP Security certification program prepares you for today’s professional-level job
roles in security technologies. CCNP Security now includes automation and programmability to
help you scale your security infrastructure.
One of the industry’s most respected certifications, CCNP validates the core knowledge you
need while giving you the flexibility to choose a focus area.
And now every exam in the CCNP Security program earns an individual Specialist certification,
so you get recognized for your accomplishments along the way.
Prerequisites
There are no formal prerequisites for CCNP Security, but you should have a good understanding of the exam topics before taking the exam.
CCNP candidates often also have three to five years of experience implementing security solutions.
Exams and Recommended Training
To earn CCNP Security, you pass two exams: a core exam and a concentration exam of your choice.
a. The core exam focuses on your knowledge of security infrastructure. The core exam is also
the qualifying exam for CCIE Security certification. Passing this exam helps toward earning
both of these certifications.

concentration exams by taking their corresponding Cisco training courses.
