Cisco CCNP Security Core SCOR 350-701 Training Course

Cisco CCNP Security Certification Training Course

Prepare for Cisco CCNP Security by building professional-level security infrastructure capability across network security, cloud security, content security, endpoint protection and detection, secure network access, visibility, enforcement, and concentration exam planning.

Course focus: SCOR 350-701 core exam preparation for CCNP Security, with guided planning for one of the current Cisco CCNP Security concentration exams.
Course Overview

Develop the professional-level Cisco security skills required to protect modern enterprise, cloud, hybrid, and user access environments.

Accumentum’s Cisco CCNP Security Certification Training Course is built around the Cisco CCNP Security core exam: 350-701 SCOR, Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies. The course prepares learners to pursue the required core exam while developing practical security infrastructure knowledge for real enterprise environments.

Cisco positions CCNP Security around the ability to protect infrastructure through security concepts, network security, cloud security, content security, endpoint protection and detection, secure network access, visibility, and enforcement. This course organizes those areas into a structured training path for network security engineers, security engineers, infrastructure professionals, and technical teams responsible for securing Cisco environments.

Passing SCOR meets the core exam requirement for CCNP Security and automatically earns the Cisco Certified Specialist - Security Core certification. To earn the full CCNP Security certification, learners must also pass one concentration exam that aligns with their desired security specialty.

This updated landing page also includes the current Cisco concentration options listed for CCNP Security: 300-710 SNCF, 300-715 SISE, 300-720 SESA, 300-725 SWSA, 300-730 SVPN, 300-740 SCAZT, and 300-745 SDSI. Each concentration is presented as its own future Accumentum landing page pathway.

Course Objectives

Build SCOR exam readiness and a strong foundation for the full Cisco CCNP Security certification pathway.

01

Implement Core Security Technologies

Develop professional readiness across Cisco security architecture, secure infrastructure, policy enforcement, threat defense, secure access, and security operations concepts.

02

Strengthen Network and Cloud Security

Review network security controls, firewalls, VPNs, segmentation, cloud security architecture, hybrid connectivity, secure application access, and infrastructure protection.

03

Advance Endpoint and Content Security

Prepare across endpoint protection and detection, web security, email security, malware defense, data loss prevention, authentication, encryption, and traffic inspection concepts.

04

Plan the Right Concentration

Compare Cisco firewall, ISE, email, web, VPN, secure cloud access, and security design concentration paths so learners can choose the best specialty after SCOR.

Who Should Attend

  • Network security professionals preparing for the Cisco CCNP Security core exam, 350-701 SCOR, and the broader CCNP Security certification pathway.
  • Security engineers, network security engineers, systems engineers, network engineers, infrastructure engineers, and technical professionals responsible for protecting Cisco environments.
  • Professionals working with firewalls, VPNs, identity services, secure access, cloud security, content security, endpoint protection, visibility, enforcement, or secure network design.
  • CCNA-level or experienced technical professionals ready to move into professional-level Cisco security certification and specialist concentration training.

Recommended Readiness

  • Cisco lists no formal prerequisites for CCNP Security, but learners often have three to five years of experience implementing security solutions.
  • Learners should be comfortable with networking fundamentals, security concepts, routing and switching, IP addressing, access control, VPN fundamentals, and infrastructure troubleshooting.
  • Hands-on practice is strongly recommended because SCOR preparation benefits from configuration, validation, troubleshooting, policy interpretation, and operational scenario work.
  • This course is designed for learners who want structured preparation for the SCOR core exam before choosing one CCNP Security concentration exam.

Cisco CCNP Security Certification Badge

The Cisco 350-701 SCOR exam, Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies, meets the core exam requirement for Cisco Certified Network Professional Security. Passing SCOR also earns the Cisco Certified Specialist - Security Core certification.

The SCOR exam tests knowledge of implementing and operating core security technologies, including network security, cloud security, content security, endpoint protection and detection, secure network access, visibility, and enforcement.

Cisco lists SCOR as a 120-minute exam available in English and Japanese. Cisco also lists the professional-level core exam price as $US400, or Cisco Learning Credits, and states that results are pass/fail and available online within 48 hours.

To earn the full CCNP Security certification, learners must pass SCOR plus one current CCNP Security concentration exam of their choice. Cisco currently lists seven concentration options: SNCF, SISE, SESA, SWSA, SVPN, SCAZT, and SDSI.
