Course Details
RSA SecurID Access II - Infrastructure Administration and Tuning
Duration: 4 Days
Course Code: RSASAII
Prerequisite:
Students should have a fundamental conceptual understanding of network security and multi-factor authentication. Students should be familiar with software installation in both Windows and UNIX/Linux environments and be familiar with IP, networking, and virtualization configurations.
Most students find it helpful to have completed RSA SecurID Access Administration I training prior to attending this course.
Students must provide their own iOS or Android device (smartphone or tablet) to complete exercises involving the RSA SecurID Access Authenticate mobile app.
Course Description:
This course is designed to help accelerate the learning curve and provide practical experience for individuals planning, deploying, or installing components of an RSA SecurID Access system. Participants leave this training with the knowledge and experience of bringing components to an operational state, information to help build high availability and disaster recovery into their infrastructure and how to perform system configurations to match their security needs.
Current RSA Authentication Manager customers who are planning to add cloud-based multi-factor authentication can particularly benefit from the information and hands-on exercises in this course as well as work with the latest Authentication Manager server and agent capabilities.
Course Objective:
Upon Completion of this Course, you will accomplish following:
• Understand the architecture and deployment options of an RSA SecurID Access system and components
• Perform configurations required to make system components operational
• Understand the configuration options to support a variety of security and access protection scenarios
• Offer guidance and support for user administrators
• Know how to approach system troubleshooting
Intended Audience:
IT, System, or Security Engineers who may be responsible for implementing an RSA SecurID Access system.
