Course Specifications
Course number: 085545
Course length: 5 days
Software: N/A
Certification
Exam #: SC0–411
Maps to: Hardening the Infrastructure, Security Certified Program Level 1: Defense
Course: 1 of 2 for Security Certified Network Professional (SCNP)
Course Description
Hardening the Infrastructure is designed to provide Network Administrators with an awareness of
security-related issues and the essential skills they need to implement security in a given network. It is
the first course offered in the first level of the Security Certified Program.
Target Student: We designed Hardening the Infrastructure for Network Administrators who are
responsible for maintaining a wide range of network technologies, and who need to develop expertise in
securing their networks.
Prerequisites: To ensure your success, we recommend you first take the following Element K course or
have equivalent knowledge:
• Network+ Certification: Third Edition—2002 Objectives, A CompTIA Certification
• Security+ Certification: A CompTIA Certification
Delivery Method: Instructor-led, group-paced, classroom-delivery learning model with structured
minds-on and hands-on activities.
Benefits: Students will learn to work with various protocols, and create security in router-based
networks and across different platforms. They will also use some of the techniques that network
attackers commonly use to learn the best ways to prevent attacks.
What's Next: After completing this course, students who want to complete Level 1: Defense of the
Security Certified Program should take the next course in the series: Network Defense and
Countermeasures.

• For class preparation and use, the following software:
o A bootable DOS floppy disk with common utilities such as FDISK, FORMAT,
MSCDEX, DELPART, and so forth, is sufficient for class purposes.
o The Windows 2000 Server operating system. The cost of an evaluation copy is $7.95,
and you can obtain the software from the Microsoft Training Kits, TechNet, or
http://microsoft.order-2.com/win2kast
o The Red Hat 8.0 Linux operating system. It does not matter if you use the Personal or
Professional Edition. The cost of this software is free, if you download it from
www.redhat.com (or any of the various mirror sites listed there). It is recommended
that you also download the installation guide. If you decide to download the OS from
the Internet, download the ISO files and create CDs from the images. Choosing the
Burn As Image option ensures that the CDs will be bootable.
o Hardware drivers for each OS and peripheral, especially NIC and video drivers. You
should always keep these handy. In addition to having them on a CD, it is generally
advisable to have a set of properly labeled floppy disks.
o Service Pack 2 for Windows 2000 Server. This Service Pack is free, and can be
downloaded from
http://download.microsoft.com/download/win2000platform/SP/SP2/NT5/EN-
US/W2KSP2.exe (save the file to disk).
o The Internet Explorer 6 upgrade. This upgrade is free, and can be downloaded from
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.asp (you might need to be connected to
the Internet to do the actual upgrade).
o The sysprep utility, from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit.
o Disk-cloning tools. Norton Ghost is recommended.
o SID-changing utilities. Norton Ghostwalk is recommended.
• For use in class, you will also need to acquire the tools and utilities described in the following
tables. Tables are arranged by function, such as network scanning, firewalls, and so forth. Links
are provided to enable you to download files from the Web, via an HTML version of these setup
instructions on the course CD. Create a Tools share (or a CD) for use in class. Download and
organize the tools in an appropriate folder structure, such as in folders named Linux Tools,
Windows Tools, and Miscellaneous. The Miscellaneous folder can include utilities like MS
Office file viewers, file unzippers, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and so forth. The capture and
signature files required for some of the tasks in the course, as well as all the RFCs, are included
with each course manual.
