Red Hat has introduced its Security Certification, RHCSS. Like all the prevailing Red Hat certifications, this too would be a performance based certification program. The modules for the program are built on the security skills covered in the RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer) program and hence RHCE would be a prerequisite.

The modules for the program comprise of:

• RHS333 Enterprise Network Services Security
• RH423 Enterprise Directory Services and Authentication
• RHS429 SELinux Policy Administration

Today’s organizations must counter the ingenuity and determination of criminals and pranksters with equal ingenuity and determination. The IT security requires people who are qualified to implement security solutions.

RHCSS is a performance based security certification that requires advanced skill using Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SELinux and Red Hat Directory Server. An RHCSS can help the company meet security requirements of today’s enterprise environment.
