The Cisco Certified Internetworking Expert (CCIE) Certification from Cisco Systems is the most prestigious certification in the networking industry. In 2001, Cisco introduced the CCIE in Security. This exam, a combination of a written qualification exam with a one-day intensive lab exam, is a highly sought after affirmation of a networker's security skills.

The CCIE Security Exam Certification Guide (CCIE Self-Study) is a valuable self-study aid in preparing for the Security Qualification Exam (#350-018). The book covers security and application protocols, security technologies, general and Cisco-specific security applications, as well as related general networking and operating system issues.

This book includes the proven tools from the best-selling line of Cisco Press Exam Certification Guides like pre- and post-chapter exams, exam objective reviews, and a CD-ROM-based testing engine that allows for focused or comprehensive tests. Also included are case studies and testing tips from the author who is a former CCIE Lab proctor, a triple CCIE (soon to be certified a fourth time), and a former member of the CCIE team at Cisco Systems.
