Sniffer Technologies’ SCP (Sniffer Certified Professional) certification is for “network professionals who can demonstrate an in-depth understanding of Sniffer Technologies software.” Since the Sniffer products deal with network protocol analysis, candidates should have some experience in this specialized realm before attempting this entry level vendor-specific certification.

The SCP was launched by Sniffer Technologies, a business unit of Network Associates, back in the spring of 2001. In the middle of 2002, its related exam was updated in both number and version as the exam went from version 4.0 to 4.7. An SCP for version 4.0 certification does not retire and recertification is not required. As the Sniffer products and certifications evolve, though, candidates may want to certify on the most up-to-date version of the certification.

Job roles of those pursuing this certification typically include: network analysts, network engineers, and network protocol analysts.

To achieve the SCP, a candidate must pass the Sniffer PNA Troubleshooting (1T6-101) exam.
