Description

Conceptually, firewall security policies are straightforward, but managing them in production has historically been a challenge due to scale, efficacy, and business alignment. In this course, Automating Cisco ASA and Firepower Policies Using APIs, you'll leverage Ansible to configure Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) policies via infrastructure-as-code. Next, you'll discover how to interact with the Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) REST API to reconstruct classic ASA policies on the next-generation security platform, which integrates firewall and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) capabilities. Finally, you'll learn how to manage distributed FTD deployments using the Firepower Management Center (FMC) REST API, a centralized "single pane of glass" for the Firepower ecosystem of products. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of security programmability needed to confidently build, design, and operate professional-grade automation solutions.
