Implementing and Configuring Cisco


Identity Services Engine (SISE) v3.0
What you’ll learn in this course
The Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) v3.0 course shows you how to
deploy and use Cisco® Identity Services Engine (ISE) v2.4, an identity and access control policy platform that
simplifies the delivery of consistent, highly secure access control across wired, wireless, and VPN connections.
This hands-on course provides you with the knowledge and skills to implement and use Cisco ISE, including policy
enforcement, profiling services, web authentication and guest access services, BYOD, endpoint compliance
services, and TACACS+ device administration. Through expert instruction and hands-on practice, you will learn
how to use Cisco ISE to gain visibility into what is happening in your network, streamline security policy
management, and contribute to operational efficiency.

This course helps you prepare to take the exam, Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services
Engine (300-715 SISE), which leads to CCNP® Security and the Cisco Certified Specialist - Security Identity
Management Implementation certifications. This course also earns you 40 Continuing Education (CE) credits
towards recertification.

Course duration
● E-learning: Equivalent of 5 days of content with videos, practice, and challenges

How you’ll benefit


This class will help you use SISE to:

● Provide secure business and context-based access based on policies


● Centrally configure and manage profiler, posture, guest, authentication, and authorization services in a
single web-based GUI console
● Provide a streamlined experience for implementing and customizing guest network access
● Gain leading-edge career skills for high-demand job roles and responsibilities focused on enterprise security
● Earn 40 CE credits toward recertification

What to expect in the exam


This exam certifies your knowledge of Cisco Identify Services Engine, including architecture and deployment,
policy enforcement, Web Auth and guest services, profiler, BYOD, endpoint compliance, and network access
device administration.

After you pass 300-715 SISE:

● You earn the Cisco Certified Specialist - Security Identity Management Implementation certification
● You will have satisfied the concentration exam requirement for the new CCNP Security certification. To
complete CCNP Security, you also need to pass the Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core
Technologies (350-701 SCOR) exam or its equivalent
