Welcome to Cisco Security Workshops. This site is dedicated to sharing expert level knowledge of the security industry and our products in a format that allows you as the customer the ability to not only get your hands on experience but see how our solutions would be used in real worlds scenarios. These workshops were built by Cisco security sales engineers with a passion for security. Many of the team involved with these hands on events have first hand knowledge of what you as customers go through on a daily basis. We have expert in a variety of technologies with varying levels of experience. Many of us came from the customer side which is why we also take that approach in our workshops.
Some of our workshops are single product specific while other encompass entire suite of products used to protect your environment. During the creation of these workshops we strive to use real world examples to make it easier to understand and relate too.
At the end of the workshops we ask for your feedback. We love creating these but in order to continue giving you what you want and ask for we need your feedback. It is imperative for the success of this program. We value all your feedback. In fact some sales engineers use these to also improve their ability to present in front of large crowds and other soft skills, not just our technical skills.
Every workshop does require you to have your own laptop (unless otherwise noted) in order to participate with the hands on portion of the workshop you signed up for. Typically there is a 20-30 minute presentation and the rest of the time 2-6 hours is spent with your rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands dirty.
