Becoming an IT security officer is not an easy job, but becoming one for information technology or a cyber security firm is even harder. Superior Solutions, Inc. makes this task simple by providing several different IT security courses for the position.

Course Training

Superior Solutions, Inc. provides ample courses in cyber, IT security certification, and ethical hacking and meets all the requirements for gaining an IT certification. Each course is a vigorous and short length class, making the certification fast and easy to approach. Courses range between 3-5 days in length for classroom and virtual online classes.

The Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing (CEH) certification is one of the more popular courses. It provides the student everything they need to take the CEH exam and become certified as a network penetration tester and ethical hacker.

There are other classes for beginners with an intense 5-day short term training, such as a Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) or other hands-on cyber security classes, such as Security+. These classes prepare you for the examinations that are required to gain the IT security certification, which you will need to become a trained IT cyber security officer.

DoD 8570 Requirements

The Department of Defense is working together with IT companies to ensure that 8570 requirements are met and kept. Please note that all network security professionals that work for or, are on contract, with the US government are required to be certified per DoD 8570 requirements within the next several years. Luckily, Superior Solutions Inc, provides onsite and live classroom IT security computer training. These cyber security courses are available to anyone from hands-on implementers and up to senior management.

Networking

If you have a group of six or more students, Superior Solutions, Inc. can provide courses at a discount and bring them to your facility. This helps to lower the cost of training and allows you to train your IT cyber security professionals at a discount, thereby reducing the cost of training to your company. As a manager grouping employees together will not only reduce the cost of training, but will provide better insight as to who are potential cyber security team players and with a better knowledge of the company’s employees as a whole.

Boot Camps

Superior Solutions, Inc. also offers courses as extended length IT security boot camps. There is a six-day Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) Exam Cram Boot Camp offered and also an extended six-day Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) Exam Prep Boot Camp, which both offer real value to those individuals seeking their IT security or cyber security certification.

By ensuring that employees have the proper IT security training, one can rest assured knowing their information will remain confidential, keep its integrity, remain non-hacked, and is protected. Without training for the certifications in security, firewalls can be easily broken, breached, and intrusion-detection systems can be bypassed. This can result in lost time, profit loss, and an information breach. Because today’s cyber security criminal focuses on new zero-day exploits, their malware can be scanned but it may or may not be detected. You need highly-trained cyber security experts to stay one step ahead of hackers to protect your critical information.

With intensive instructor-led and hands-on training classes, students can gain the knowledge to become proficient IT cyber security experts. This provides the student with the skills and training tools that are needed to achieve appropriate IT security certification in their field. Proper examination is given and certificates are accredited for the user, their managers, or employees. Making sure that your employees become certified will not only be a benefit to them, but their rewards will be that of helping to create a better and more secure organization to protect you and the company.
