CBTS awarded Cisco Master of Security Certification

OnX, a CBTS company, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded the prestigious Cisco Master of Security Certification.

The certification includes the following Cisco practice areas:

  • Next Generation Firewall (NGFW)
  • Next Generation IPS (NGIPS)
  • Policy and Access
  • Web and Email Security
  • Advanced Threat

To achieve the Cisco Master of Security Certification, OnX, a CBTS company, had to show their exact understanding of individual Cisco security practices, as well as demonstrate a deep understanding of how those practices should function as a cohesive set of solutions. The OnX team also had to showcase current examples of successful projects in which we have integrated multiple security solutions.

No other Cisco specialization or certification demands such extensive proof of the partner’s design and implementation capabilities.

“We value our strong relationship with Cisco, and this recognition reflects our expertise in deploying a wide range of Cisco security solutions to meet our customers’ evolving needs in this complex, mission-critical space,” said Paul Khawaja, Senior Vice President OnX Canada. “OnX, a CBTS company, is proud to deliver world-class Cisco solutions in the areas of secure access and mobility, edge, and branch security, along with data center and cloud security.”
