Course Details

This three-day training program focuses on modern telecom and mobile systems, with a particular emphasis on IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) and NGN (Next Generation Networks) core networks. Attendees will gain insight into the evolution of legacy telecom networks into IMS networks, along with the reuse of IETF-based protocols within the IMS context and its associated advantages. Prerequisites include a basic understanding of telecom and network principles, familiarity with 2G, 3G, OSI network layers, basic telecom technologies, and Linux. Additionally, attendees should have a laptop with Kali Linux, Wireshark skills, and a background in IT security. The training covers various aspects of IMS, including its technologies, security architecture, specific protocols, network elements, and security roles. It also explores communication security, tools, network element vulnerabilities, attack scenarios, and the path to becoming an IMS network auditor. After completing the training, attendees will have access to the presenter's slides through the Intralinks Web platform for one year.

Training Format:

  • Online Delivery: P1 Security courses are designed for seamless online learning. Participants can access pre-recorded lectures and course materials through a secure online platform.
  • Hands-on Practice: Participants will have access to P1 Cyber Range, allowing them to engage in practical exercises for real-world application.
  • Self-Assessment: Each training module is accompanied by self-assessment quizzes, enabling participants to evaluate their understanding and track their progress.
  • Expert Support: A 90-minute "Meet the Expert" session provides participants the opportunity to ask questions directly to P1 experienced instructors.
  • Certification: Upon successful completion of the final exam, participants will receive a certification recognizing their achievement.
