Working with the TechNow lab for the PA-215: Palo Alto Networks Firewall Essentials FastTrack course has been nothing less than a techie's idea of fun. When students come in we are immediatly configuring the Cisco 3750 switches for access ports, VLANS, and trunks. We then cable the switch to the Palo Alto Networks Firewall. Each student gets their own Palo Alto Firewall Pod of hardware and software. What we find as fun is the VLAN environment, with an array of virtual machines hosted on an ESXi server that can really exercise the abilities of the Palo Alto Firewall. The DMZ VLAN hosts virtual machines that support enterprise services and also potentialy vulnerable web services. The Trust VLAN has Windows and Linux clients. The UnTrust VLAN has Web services and a VM of Kali. The hardware Firewall is additionally connected to a Management VLAN. All those VLANs are trunked into an ESXi server where the student also has a VM-Series Palo Alto Networks Firewall for High Availability.
After configuring all the trunking, VLANs, and network interfaces we learn about the firewall and configure it for the lab environment. Using Metasploitable and Kali/Metasploit nefarious penetration attempts are executed. Using packet captures, custom APP-ID's and custom signatures are generated. Custom logging and reporting are created to similate and enterprise and assist the desired Incident Response. It is always fun in a training environment to learn all about the controls available in a product, even though specific controls may not be used in the operational environment. In the end we have a good understanding of the Palo Alto Networks Firewall.
Course Overview:
This course provides students with the fundamental knowledge and skills to use PowerShell for administering and automating administration of Windows servers. This course provides students the skills to identify and build the command they require to perform a specific task. In addition, students learn how to build scripts to accomplish advanced tasks such as automating repetitive tasks and generating reports. This course provides prerequisite skills supporting a broad range of Microsoft products, including Windows Server, Windows Client, Microsoft Azure, and Microsoft 365. In keeping with that goal, this course will not focus on any one of those products, although Windows Server, which is the common platform for all of those products, will serve as the example for the techniques this course teaches.
Attendees to TN-765: Automating Administration with Windows Powershell will receive TechNow approved course materials and expert instruction.

Course Description:
Artificial Intelligence Essentials (AIE) is a foundational AI literacy certification that builds practical understanding of AI and responsible use
The Artificial Intelligence Essentials (AIE) Course is designed to prepare learners for the newly Artificial Intelligence Essentials (AIE) exam. This hands-on program introduces professionals to core AI concepts, practical tools, and safe real-world applications. It equips learners to understand AI systems, use AI responsibly, and boost productivity across roles and industries
Participants will gain knowledge in understanding how AI systems work, where they are used, how they influence decision-making, and how they should be applied responsibly in everyday, professional, and organizational contexts. The course covers what AI is and what it is not, how data and models drive AI behavior, and how modern AI systems differ from traditional software. Learners develop the ability to interact effectively with AI tools, evaluate AI outputs with informed judgment, and apply responsible practices aligned with privacy, security, and global regulatory expectations.
By the end of the course, learners will be prepared to use AI confidently, safely, and productively while recognizing limitations, ethical risks, and broader societal impacts. It serves as a universal entry point before any technical, managerial, security, or governance specialization in AI.
Course Outline:
01. Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
02. Everyday AI Tools and Use Cases
03. Building Blocks of AI
