Get ready for Certified Network Defender ( CND ) certification when you attend the CND Certification class at ONLC Training Centers, an EC-Council Accredited Training Center.
Organizational focus on cyber defense is more important than ever as cyber breaches have a far greater financial impact and can cause broad reputational damage. Despite best efforts to prevent breaches, many organizations are still being compromised. As part of their defense mechanisms, organizations need trained network engineers who are focused on protecting, detecting, and responding to the threats on their networks. That's where CND comes in.
CND certification focuses on having Network Administrators trained on protecting, detecting and responding to the threats on the network since they are usually familiar with network components, traffic, performance and utilization, network topology, location of each system, security policy, etc. Earning EC-Council's CND certification validates that a Network Administrator has those skills.
