Course NT-SecT Network security: traffic encryption (IPsec, VPN)

The goal of the course is to prepare students to implement, configure, monitor, and support IPsec VPN network solutions, which include classic LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPN, DMVPN, GET VPN, FlexVPN, and Remote Access IPsec VPN.

The program covers the full spectrum of technologies:

• classic Site-to-Site (LAN-to-LAN) IPsec VPN
• scalable DMVPN solutions
• centralized traffic encryption with GET VPN
• modern FlexVPN architectures
• remote access via Remote Access VPN (Cisco AnyConnect)

This course is not about “theory for the sake of theory” – it focuses on how to practically design and build secure networks that are stable, scalable, and reliable.

Business Value:

1. Data protection and compliance with security requirements
Traffic encryption is the foundation of corporate data protection. After the training, specialists will be able to implement solutions that reduce the risk of data breaches and help meet security standards.

2. Secure operations for distributed teams
VPN solutions enable secure access to corporate resources from anywhere – which is critical for modern businesses.

3. Network infrastructure optimization
Technologies such as DMVPN and GET VPN allow companies to scale their networks without significantly increasing architectural complexity and while reducing maintenance costs.

4. Reduced dependency on external vendors
In-house trained specialists can independently implement and support VPN solutions, reducing reliance on third-party providers and lowering operational costs.

After completing this course, students will be able to:

• Implement and configure various types of IPsec VPNs, including classic LAN-to-LAN solutions
• Support network operation based on DMVPN, FlexVPN and GET VPN technologies
• Monitor and maintain stable operation of all of these VPN solutions
