Prerequisites
Prior to attending, participants must have a basic understanding of key material (symmetric and asymmetric) and networking (IP Network v.4, subnetting, and network topology). To satisfy this standard, participants are required to take course COM113S – Introduction to in-line network encryptors. For particular attention to the subject of key, we would recommend course COM101C - COMSEC in the GC. Course COM107C - Simple Key Loader (SKL) may also be considered a recommendation, since the SKL device will be used in this course.
