Overview

Welcome to Exam CCNP Security 350-701 SCOR Verified QA Tests 2025Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies (SCOR 350-701) is a 120-minute exam associated with the CCNP and CCIE Security Certifications. This exam tests a candidate's knowledge of implementing and operating core security technologies including network security, cloud security, content security, endpoint protection and detection, secure network access, visibility, and enforcements. The course, Implementing and Operating Cisco Security Core Technologies, helps candidates to prepare for this exam.The following topics are general guidelines for the content likely to be included on the exam. However, other related topics may also appear on any specific delivery of the exam.Exam Topics:-1.0 Security Concepts1.1 Explain common threats against on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments1.1.a On-premises: viruses, trojans, DoS/DDoS attacks, phishing, rootkits, man-in-themiddle attacks, SQL injection, cross-site scripting, malware1.1.b Cloud: data breaches, insecure APIs, DoS/DDoS, compromised credentials1.2 Compare common security vulnerabilities such as software bugs, weak and/or hardcoded passwords, OWASP top ten, missing encryption ciphers, buffer overflow, path traversal, cross-site scripting/forgery1.3 Describe functions of the cryptography components such as hashing, encryption, PKI, SSL, IPsec, NAT-T IPv4 for IPsec, preshared key, and certificate-based authorization1.4 Compare site-to-site and remote access VPN deployment types and components such as virtual tunnel interfaces, standards-based IPsec, DMVPN, FlexVPN, and Cisco Secure Client including high availability considerations1.5 Describe security intelligence authoring, sharing, and consumption1.6 Describe the controls used to protect against phishing and social engineering attacks1.7 Explain North Bound and South Bound APIs in the SDN architecture1.8 Explain Cisco DNA Center APIs for network provisioning, optimization, monitoring, and troubleshooting1.9 Interpret basic Python scripts used to call Cisco Security appliances APIs2.0 Network Security2.1 Compare network security solutions that provide intrusion prevention and firewall capabilities2.2 Describe deployment models of network security solutions and architectures that provide intrusion prevention and firewall capabilities2.3 Describe the components, capabilities, and benefits of NetFlow and Flexible NetFlow records2.4 Configure and verify network infrastructure security methods2.4.a Layer 2 methods (network segmentation using VLANs;
