WHEN DEFENCE IS YOUR FOCUS
Certified Network Defender CND v2 provides a comprehensive approach to effectively deal with security issues in today’s modern network, which includes:
A CONTINUALLY ADAPTIVE COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY STRATEGY
Cybersecurity is a non-linear process that required a continuous approach to mitigating cyber risks.
According to Gartner, traditional “prevent and detect” approaches are inadequate. Developing a continuous Adaptive Security cycle helps organizations stay ahead of cybercriminals, by creating and improving security systems.

WHY IS CND IN-DEMAND GLOBALLY?
Created based on a thorough job task analysis
CND v2 is based on the cybersecurity education framework and work role task analysis presented by the National Initiative of Cybersecurity Education (NICE). The program is also mapped to the Department of Defense (DoD) roles for system/network administrators, as well as, [insert which frameworks here] global work roles and responsibilities.
Increased lab time and hands-on focus
More than 50% of the CND v2 program is dedicated to practical skills in live ranges via EC-Council labs.
A dedicated focus on IoT security
IoT security, previously ignored, has now become an issue of great concern. IoT devices are not primarily designed with security in mind. This leaves serious vulnerabilities while configuring IoT devices in a network. CND v2 introduces candidates to the various challenges that IoT devices pose and the measures required to mitigate them.
Network virtualization practices for the remote workforce
Tracking security applications and configurations of remote work environments as workforces span across servers is very difficult. The CND v2 program covers the complete security criterion to protect virtualized environments.
An upgrade on mobile security measures
Research firm Gartner predicts that by 2021, 27% of corporate data traffic will bypass perimeter security, and flow directly from mobile and portable devices to the cloud. With the CND v2, you will learn how to ensure that this endpoint remains secure.
Enhanced focus on cloud security
While the adoption of cloud computing in organizations has increased, so have the challenges. Learn about the different ways to ensure security across various cloud platforms – AWS, Microsoft Azure Cloud, Google Cloud Platform through the CND v2 program.
An introduction to threat intelligence
Having a proactive approach to security is the new requirement of all organizations. Without threat intelligence, your cybersecurity posture is simply reactive one. CND v2 helps you take a more effective, proactive approach using threat intelligence.
In-depth Attack Surface Analysis
The key to cyber risk management is in-depth, attack surface analysis. CNDv2 provides how to identify what parts of your organization need to be reviewed and tested for security vulnerabilities and how to reduce, prevent, and mitigate risks in the network.
Includes the latest technology
CNDv2 covers latest technologies such as software defined network (SDN) security, network function virtualization (NFV) security, container security, docker security, and Kubernetes security.
About The Exam
Number of Questions: 100
Test Duration: 4 Hours
Test Format: Multiple Choice
Test Delivery: ECC EXAM
Exam Prefix: 312-38 (ECC EXAM)
Passing Score:
In order to maintain the high integrity of our certification exams, EC-Council Exams are provided in multiple forms (i.e. different question banks). Each form is carefully analyzed through beta testing with an appropriate sample group under the guide of a committee of subject matter experts. This approach ensures that our exams offer academic difficulty, as well as, “real world” applications. We also have a process to determine the difficulty rating of each question. The individual rating then contributes to an overall “Cut Score” for each exam form. To ensure each form adheres to assessment standards, cut scores are set on a “per exam form” basis. Depending on which exam form is challenged, cut scores can range from 60% to 85%.
