　　Every organization has data, facilities, and workflow processes that are mission critical to their success. As more organizations make greater use of the Internet, it becomes critical that businesses defend their networks against attacks. Productivity gains and returns on company investments are at risk if the network is not defended.
　　
　　Cisco protects business from end to end, enabling business growth and increased productivity. Unlike point security products that leave vulnerable gaps, comprehensive solutions from Cisco embed integrated, layered security throughout your entire network to tie separate technologies and applications into a single, secure whole.
　　
　　Together with responsive, qualified partners, Cisco provides the components and training to build and maintain an effective security system that can safeguard your company's ability to generate revenue. Regardless of the size of your business, Cisco network security products and Cisco IOS(r) Software help keep your network secure.
　　
　　To help meet your needs, on November 19, 2002, Cisco will announce the new Cisco Certified Security Professional (CCSP) and three new security Cisco Qualified Specialists the Cisco Firewall Specialist, the Cisco VPN Specialist, and the Cisco IDS Specialist. Cisco is launching this new professional level security certification in response to the heightened need for knowledgeable network professionals who can design, build, and implement complete end-to-end security solutions coupled with an industry demand to provide a certification career path in the IT security market. This new certification provides an individual with professional level recognition in designing and implementing Cisco Secure networks.
　　
　　To become a Cisco Certified Security Professional (CCSP) you need to hold a valid CCNA(r) certification and complete and pass the following exams:

Candidates with Cisco Security Specialist 1 certification have already demonstrated their knowledge of firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and virtual private networks. Therefore, if they maintain their CCNA status and pass this additional exam, they can become a Cisco Certified Security Professional (CCSP).
　　
　　Like other professional level Cisco certifications, the Cisco Certified Security Professional is valid for three years.
　　
　　New Cisco Qualified Specialists for Firewall, VPN, and IDS
