The Red Hat Security Exam Prep Course: Mastering EX415 for Secure Linux Systems is an advanced, hands-on training program that equips IT professionals with the skills required to secure Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) systems across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. This course prepares participants for the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Security: Linux (EX415) exam and aligns with the RH415 training course. By leveraging critical tools and technologies such as SELinux, AIDE, PAM, OpenSCAP, Red Hat Insights, USBGuard, and the Ansible Automation Platform, learners will gain the competencies to manage and automate system hardening, compliance enforcement, and intrusion prevention.
Participants will work with real-world scenarios to apply Linux system hardening techniques, automate remediation using Red Hat Ansible, monitor systems with Audit and AIDE, and enforce security compliance using SCAP-based tools. The course addresses both proactive and reactive security management, ensuring professionals can safeguard RHEL systems from internal and external threats in physical, virtualized, and cloud-hosted deployments.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
This course is designed with a practical, scenario-based training approach, combining live demonstrations, guided labs, and interactive simulations. Learners will engage in case studies based on real security threats, configuration challenges, and compliance requirements. Interactive sessions will simulate enterprise-level problems, requiring learners to troubleshoot, analyze, and apply secure configurations using RH415 best practices.
Participants will also experience hands-on labs replicating EX415 tasks, including using Red Hat SELinux and AIDE for intrusion detection, OpenSCAP policy enforcement, Red Hat Insights for proactive risk management, and Ansible for automated compliance. Peer discussions, group problem-solving, and feedback reviews ensure comprehensive understanding.
(A Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) certification or equivalent hands-on experience is strongly recommended. Familiarity with Red Hat Enterprise Linux command-line operations and basic administration is expected.)
(Each day's session is generally structured to last around 4-5 hours, with breaks and interactive activities included. The total course duration spans five days, approximately 20-25 hours of instruction.)
(Ansible is used to automate configuration remediation, apply OpenSCAP-based fixes, and deploy consistent hardening policies across multiple RHEL systems.)
Unlike generic Linux security trainings, this course is tailored specifically to prepare participants for the Red Hat Certified Specialist in Security: Linux (EX415) certification using the RH415 training framework. It integrates hands-on exposure to Red Hat-specific security tools like SELinux, AIDE, OpenSCAP, USBGuard, and PAM within real RHEL 9.2 environments.
The course emphasizes automation and compliance management using Red Hat Ansible, Red Hat Satellite, and Red Hat Insights, providing learners with scalable, enterprise-ready approaches to managing Linux system security. This training stands out for its practical simulations, real-world case scenarios, and tightly aligned exam-focused structure based on the most current EX415 objectives. The tools are not physically provided but demonstrated through case-based insights and virtual labs, empowering learners to confidently apply them in enterprise environments.
