*Effective 2020 Cisco retired the CCNA Security and CCNA Cyber Ops certifications. Cisco has transitioned to CCNP for all specialties. To earn a Cisco Security (specialty) candidates must pass a CCNP Security certification exam (there are multiple). Earning a CCNA certification prior to sitting for a specialty exam is no longer a requirement. We offer certification prep classes for the latest CCNA and CCNP Security exam tracks.
