This course provides you with the fundamental knowledge, skills, and hands-on experience necessary to set up a new Quantum security environment. You will learn how to install SmartConsole, the GAIA operating system, a Security Management Server, and a Security Gateway, and perform basic configuration.
In addition, the course shows you how to create a basic policy, set up a Security Gateway cluster, configure a Dedicated Log Server, perform maintenance tasks such as system backups and snapshots, and perform batch imports of objects and rules.
This course focuses on the deployment of GAIA systems. Without any prior knowledge, you will learn all the necessary steps from scratch and can use this knowledge directly to set up a lab environment – with 15 days of unlimited use after each new installation.

Classroom training
- Do you prefer the classic training method? A course in one of our Training Centers, with a competent trainer and the direct exchange between all course participants? Then you should book one of our classroom training dates!
-
Hybrid training
- Hybrid training means that online participants can additionally attend a classroom course. The dynamics of a real seminar are maintained, and the online participants are able to benefit from that. Online participants of a hybrid course use a collaboration platform, such as WebEx Training Center or Saba Meeting. To do this, a PC with browser and Internet access is required, as well as a headset and ideally a Web cam. In the seminar room, we use specially developed and customized audio- and video-technologies. This makes sure that the communication between all persons involved works in a convenient and fault-free way.
