Secure Workload Webinar: 1 Hour presentation overview of Secure Workload and Use Cases.

Cisco Secure Workload Webinar

Enabling zero-trust segmentation in today’s highly complex application landscape can be extremely difficult to implement in the hybrid multi-cloud world. Lack of visibility, insufficient data, and inconsistent firewall policy frameworks expose these On-premises or Cloud applications to attackers. 

Join us at this 1 hour Workshop and learn how to address the challenges of application security for your On-premises and Cloud Workloads with Cisco Secure Workload (formerly Tetration). 

Join us as we discuss: 

Simplifying the task of microsegmentation and demystifying its complexity 

Understanding threats and your potential risks 

Proactively identifying workload vulnerabilities, taking action to reduce risk, and protecting assets  

Course Title:
Designing and Deploying Zero Trust Access with Cisco Secure Access

Course Description:
Step into the role of a network security administrator in this guided, hands-on workshop. You’ll learn how to design, deploy, and validate a modern Zero Trust Access solution using Cisco Secure Access. Acting as the administrator for the fictional organization PseudoCo, you will configure secure connectivity between remote users and private applications hosted in a secure data center.

You’ll have full administrative access to a dedicated virtual data center environment in Cisco’s dCloud, pre-provisioned for Secure Access integration. Each participant also receives a unique Secure Access organization, enabling you to configure and test infrastructure in any Secure Access region, with recommendations to align settings with your specific dCloud Data Center location.

Workshop Highlights

• Real-World Zero Trust Scenarios: Configure secure connectivity for remote users and private applications.
• Hands-On Labs: Access to a fully provisioned virtual data center and unique Secure Access organization.
• End-to-End Deployment: Learn to set up VPNs, IP pools, and tunnels for seamless, secure access.
• Expert Guidance: Step-by-step lab exercises and access to proctors for support.

Key Takeaways

• Practical experience deploying Zero Trust Access solutions using Cisco Secure Access.
• Skills to configure and validate secure connections between distributed users and applications.
• Understanding of best practices for aligning Secure Access configurations with data center regions.

Who Should Attend

• IT and network administrators responsible for securing enterprise access.
• Security engineers and architects interested in Zero Trust methodologies.
• Anyone preparing to deploy Cisco Secure Access solutions in their organization.

Workshop Format

• Hands-On Labs: Interactive, guided exercises in a live dCloud virtual environment.
• Instructor Support: Direct assistance from proctors and subject matter experts.
• Individual Access: Each attendee receives their own Secure Access organization and isolated lab environment.

Prerequisites

• Familiarity with basic networking and security concepts.
• Prior experience with remote access technologies or Cisco solutions is helpful but not required.
• Access to a Cisco dCloud account (provided as part of the course).

Why Attend?

This workshop offers a unique, practical opportunity to master Zero Trust Access with Cisco Secure Access in a risk-free, fully supported lab environment. You’ll leave with the confidence and know-how to implement secure, modern access solutions tailored to your organization’s needs.
