Objectives
- Build access policies that are deterministic, auditable, and safe to modify under incident pressure.
- Trace an APM access flow end-to-end and pinpoint the exact decision point that blocks users.
- Troubleshoot remote access VPN failures across tunnels, DNS, routes, MTU, and client behavior.
- Diagnose SAML, OAuth, and OpenID Connect issues using protocol evidence instead of guessing.
- Implement MFA and step-up authentication that is strict, reliable, and resistant to bypass.
- Design posture checks that enforce device trust without fragile rules that block valid users.
- Tune session timeouts and cookies for predictable continuity and clean re-authentication triggers.
- Identify trust-chain and certificate issues that break authentication and SSO after rotations.
- Use logs and session variables to validate root cause before making production changes.
- Choose the smallest safe fix that restores access without weakening security controls.
Pre Requisites
- Basic understanding of login flows, cookies, and common web authentication concepts.
- Familiarity with networking fundamentals: IP addressing, routing, and DNS behavior.
- General awareness of SSO and MFA terms is helpful, but not required to start.
- Comfort reading logs and following a step-by-step troubleshooting workflow.
- A lab BIG-IP is optional; the questions train operational reasoning without a live system.
- Willingness to retake sections to eliminate blind spots and build fast pattern recognition.
FAQ
- Q. How long do I have access to the course materials?
- A. You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.
- Q. Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?
- A. Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don't have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That's up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
