The Security Blueprint is explicit in the following topics ( and many
more ):
1) security protocols such as RADIUS, TACACS+, Kerberos, IPSec, and a bunch
more
2) operating systems, i.e. Unix and NT
3) security technologies, including PKI and VPN
4) Cisco Security applications, including Cisco Secure Unix, Cisco Secure
NT, Cisco secure policy manager, Cisco secure intrusion detection, and Cisco
secure VPN bundle
All these things together are what lead me to speculate that the Security
Lab will include work on servers for the various Cisco Secure products, and
on PC's for the client side of VPN. Which makes perfect sense, because
security is far more than configuring access lists on routers and policies
on firewalls.

What do you mean when you say "end user equipment"? If what you
say is true, it makes perfect sense to me, and seems reasonable.
The CCIE Security isn't (shouldn't be?) about routers and friends,
per se, but more about the Cisco Secure product line, which includes
some software products. ACS is an application, not an appliance
but it is an important part of the offering. Configuring a
NetRanger is more about the Director software than it is about
the sensor, for sure. Then we have the PIX and the VPN stuff, which
I would expect to be more hands on hardware type events, but nowhere
in my expectation do I see what could be considered "end user" stuff.
Can you clarify what you meant?
