Cisco 200-201 Exam Requirements

Even though the vendor doesn't have any specific prerequisites for the CyberOps Associate certificate, applicants should know that the related exam is quite difficult. Therefore, you should have prior knowledge of how Linux and Windows operating systems work. Also, Cisco recommends that exam-takers should be familiar with Ethernet and TCP/IP networking and foundational notions of concepts related to networking security. In case you haven't worked with the mentioned areas before, you can consolidate your expertise by earning the CCNA certificate first.

Cisco CyberOps Job & Salary

Once you attain your CyberOps Associate certificate, you will be able to opt for the position of an associate-level cybersecurity analyst. Throughout the USA, the Cisco CyberOps Associate certification holders earn an average salary of $67,000 per year as stated by Nasroo.com. However, after gaining a few years of experience in the field, the average income can shoot to about $100,000 annually for those who work in the financial, defense, and aerospace industries as also claimed by the Nasroo platform. Aside from experience, the company you choose to work with and the complexity of the tasks may also influence your income potential. At the first glance, individuals who work for top-ranked organizations tend to earn more than their colleagues with the same skills.

Skills Outline of Cisco 200-201 Exam

Cisco has divided the syllabus of the 200-201 exam into various sections. Each of them evaluates the applicants’ knowledge and ability to perform a range of technical tasks. The detailed skills outline is mentioned below:

  • Network Intrusion Analysis (20%)

    This objective encompasses interpreting basic regular expressions, extracting files from a TCP stream from a Wireshark and PCAP file, and comparing the qualities of data acquired from traffic or taps monitoring and transactional data, especially in the analysis of network traffic. The test takers needs to have the skills in comparing inline traffic interrogation and traffic monitoring or taps, comparing deep pocket inspection with stateful firewall operation, as well as comparing impact vs. no impact for false positive, benign, and true negative. The ability to map the provided events in order to source technologies is also important.

  • Host-Based Analysis (20%)

    This section includes interpreting an application, operating system, or command line logs in order to identify events, comparing tempered and untampered disk image, and interpreting the output report of the malware analysis tool such as denotation chamber or sandbox. Describing the role of attribution in any investigation, identifying the types of evidence used depending on the provided log, and identifying the components of a given operating system such as Linux and Windows in a given scenario are the skills you need to have. They also include your ability to describe the functionality of a wide range of endpoint technologies in respect to security monitoring.

  • Security Concepts (20%)

    This is the first domain of the Cisco 200-201 exam that you need to learn. Within this first topic, the students need to show their ability and knowledge of describing the CIA triad, principles of a defense-in-depth strategy, and security terms as well as comparing security deployments, security concepts, and access control models. You should also have the relevant skills in identifying the challenges of data visibility (Cloud, host, and network), comparing the rule-based detection vs. statistical and behavioral detection, and interpreting the 5-tuple approach in order to isolate any compromised host in a given group set of logs. The evaluation process also includes the measurement of your knowledge of the identification of potential data loss from the provided traffic profiles. This part also covers the description of terms as defined in CVSS, including attack vector, scope, user interaction, privileges required, and attack complexity. It also includes role-based access control, time-based access control, rule-based access control, authentication, accounting, and authorization. It is important to know about non-discretionary access control, mandatory access control, discretionary access control, threat intelligence platform (TIP), threat intelligence (TI), malware analysis, reverse engineering, and threat hunting as well. Your knowledge of legacy antivirus and antimalware, run book automation (RBA), and sliding window anomaly detection will also help you answer the questions.

  • Security Policies and Procedures (15%)

    This last part is all about the description of the management concepts and elements in the incident response plan as specified in NIST.SP800-601 as well as mapping the organization stakeholders against any NIST IR categories and applying the incident handling process to an event.

  • Security Monitoring (25%)

    Within this second subject area, the individuals taking the 200-201 exam need to demonstrate that they possess the abilities to compare attack surface and vulnerability, identify the certificate components in a specific scenario, describe the impact of the certificates on security (includes asymmetric/symmetric, private/public crossing the network, and PKI). The potential candidates should be able to describe the obfuscation and evasion techniques, such as proxies, encryption, and tunneling as well as describe endpoint-based attacks, involving malware, ransomware, command and control, and buffer overflows. If you are also knowledgeable of how to describe the social engineering attacks and web application attacks, such as cross-site scripting, and command injections, you will succeed. Knowing the SQL injection and cross-site scripting, being able to describe network attacks, such as man-in-the-middle, distributed denial of service, denial of service, and protocol-based, are the skills you should possess. You must also know howto describe the use of various data types in monitoring security, which includes full packet capture, alert data, metadata, statistical data, transaction data, and session data.
