Overview

The Check Point Certified Security Administrator (CCSA) R82 certification, exam 156-215.82, validates the skills needed to deploy, configure and run a Check Point Quantum Security Gateway environment on R82. It covers the Security Management Server / Security Gateway architecture, SmartConsole, policy and layer management, NAT, Application Control and URL Filtering, Identity Awareness, site-to-site VPNs, threat prevention, ClusterXL, logging with SmartLog and SmartEvent, and maintenance and upgrades.

In Morocco, Check Point has long secured the perimeter of many banks, insurers, telecom operators and public institutions. Under Law 05-20 and DGSSI requirements, these organisations must maintain documented filtering policies, usable logs and controlled VPN access. CCSA-certified administrators are therefore sought by in-house teams as well as integrators and managed service providers in Casablanca and Rabat.

Our 3-day (21-hour) course follows the official CCSA R82 syllabus and alternates lectures with labs on a virtualised Check Point environment: installation, policy creation, NAT, VPN, clustering and log analysis. It runs in class in Casablanca or Rabat, or as a live virtual classroom, and the 156-215.82 exam voucher is included in the price.
