Irvine, CA - August 2005 -- Ascolta, one of the leading providers of
technical security training is proud to announce that it is now offering a two-day
course called “Cisco MARS-Protego” designed to train IT professionals
about the inter-workings of the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, And Response
System (CS-MARS) at various locations around the country. A result of the Protego
acquisition by Cisco Systems, CS-MARS offers a family of high-performance, scalable
appliances used for threat management, monitoring, and mitigation; which enables
customers to make more effective use of network and security devices.
The Cisco MARS-Protego course is a 2-day instructor-led course covering five
chapters and six labs designed to provide a solid foundation for the students.
The course addresses how to install the appliance, add network devices to manage,
and create reports to better secure and manage the network. It also covers incident
investigations, event management, and system maintenance.
CS-MARS complements the self-defending network architecture by empowering the
security and network organization to monitor, analyze, and mitigate security
threats. The CS-MARS appliance extends the portfolio of security management
products for the Cisco Self-Defending Network initiative. The result is a system
that helps customers to readily and accurately identify, manage, and eliminate
network attacks and maintain network security compliance.
Fred Cutaran, who is the Vice President of Sales at Ascolta says, “The
CS-MARS family of appliances have answered customers’ needs to mitigate
threats. Ascolta is the first to market, to design, and to deliver training
to help customers fully utilize the security management capabilities of the
appliance.”
