Two new McAfee certification exams

McAfee today announced two new certification exams in support of the McAfee Security Certification Program.

These exams have been released under the McAfee Certified Product Specialist track which is designed to allow the users of McAfee technologies to demonstrate competency around the effective installation, configuration and administration of key McAfee products.

The two new exams focus on the McAfee Network Security Platform and McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention solution. Those who pass the exam and become certified demonstrate the highest levels of technical competency and productivity, helping to lower operating cost and improve levels of service and security.

The McAfee Security Certification program is open to all McAfee product users, customers, and partners.

McAfee also announced the addition of virtual instructor-led training (VILT) classes to complement the current in-person, instructor-led training and certification preparation capabilities. VILT allows students to attend full training classes over the Internet.

These live, instructor-led classes allow McAfee to reach geographically dispersed students while minimizing student and instructor travel time and related expenses.
