  • Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers
    Data Sheet Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers The Cisco ® NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers (NME-NAC-K9) brings the feature-rich Cisco NAC Appliance Server capabilities to Cisco 2800, 2900, 3800 and 3900 Series Integrated Services Routers. Cisco NAC Appliance (also known as Cisco Clean Access) is a rapidly deployable Network Admission Control (NAC) product that allows network administrators to authenticate, authorize, evaluate, and remediate wired, wireless, and remote users and their machines prior to allowing them onto the network. Product Overview The Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers (NME-NAC-K9) extends the Cisco NAC Appliance portfolio of products to smaller locations, helping enable network admission control (NAC) capabilities from the headquarters to the branch office (Figure 1). The integration of NAC Appliance Server capabilities into a network module for Integrated Services Routers allows network administrators to manage a single device in the branch office for data, voice, and security requirements, reducing network complexity, IT staff training needs, equipment sparing requirements, and maintenance costs. The Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers deployed at the branch office remediates potential threats locally before they traverse the WAN and potentially infect the network. Figure 1. Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers (NME-NAC-K9) The Cisco NAC Network Module for Integrated Services Routers is an advanced network security product that: ● Recognizes users, their devices, and their roles in the network: This first step occurs at the point of authentication, before malicious code can cause damage. ● Evaluates machines to determine their compliance with security policies: Security policies can vary by user type, device type, or operating system.

    Community College Security Design Considerations SBA As community colleges embrace new communication and collaboration tools, • Network abuse—Use of non-approved applications by students, faculty, and staff; transitioning from traditional classroom teaching into an Internet-based, media-rich peer-to-peer file sharing and instant messaging abuse; and access to forbidden education and learning environment, a whole new set of network security challenges content arise. Community college network infrastructures must be adequately secured to protect • Unauthorized access—Intrusions, unauthorized users, escalation of privileges, IP students, staff, and faculty from harmful content, to guarantee confidentiality of private spoofing, and unauthorized access to restricted learning and administrative data, and to ensure the availability and integrity of the systems and data. Providing a safe resources and secure network environment is a top responsibility for community college administrators and community leaders. • Data loss—Loss or leakage of student, staff, and faculty private data from servers and user endpoints Security Design • Identity theft and fraud—Theft of student, staff, and faculty identity or fraud on servers and end users through phishing and E-mail spam Within the Cisco Community College reference design, the service fabric network provides the foundation on which all solutions and services are built to solve the business The Community College reference design accommodates a main campus and one or challenges facing community colleges. These business challenges include building a more remote smaller campuses interconnected over a metro Ethernet or managed WAN virtual learning environment, providing secure connected classrooms, ensuring safety service.

These attacks fall into several general categories that identify and separate them based on some key differences and methods. Many organizations have implemented perimeter security as a method for dealing with these threats and attacks. As attacks and threats have escalated and found ways through the perimeter, organizations have further extended the perimeter security approach with the concept of defense in depth, which provides a layered approach to protecting data networks beginning with the perimeter. Perimeter security is dependent on properly configured firewalls and routers. However, traditional packet-filtering firewalls only block network ports and computer addresses and do not address threats that occur at the application layer. Firewalls do not protect against traffic that is passed on open ports or encrypted VPN traffic.

  • The Building Blocks in a Cisco NAC Appliance Design
    C H A P T E R 3 The Building Blocks in a Cisco NAC Appliance Design Knowledge of how to properly design security solutions is what separates the professional from the amateur. Without a proper design, the eventual implementation will most likely be a disaster. One of the keys to success when designing a security solution is to first understand all the pieces you have to work with. I like to call these building blocks. After you achieve understanding, you then need to become skilled at manipulating the pieces in ways that best fit your environment. This chapter focuses on the building blocks available with the Cisco NAC Appliance solution. The purpose and function of each piece is covered. The requirements, scalability, and performance of these building blocks are also discussed. The next chapter discusses your options for manipulating these building blocks. Cisco NAC Appliance Solution Components A NAC Appliance solution is made up of the following components: • Mandatory components: — Cisco NAC Appliance Manager (Clean Access Manager) — Cisco NAC Appliance Server (Clean Access Server) • Optional components: — Cisco Clean Access Agent — Cisco NAC Appliance Network Scanner Each piece has a distinct role to play in the solution. In this section, you examine the roles of each in more detail. NOTE Cisco NAC Appliance was formerly known as Cisco Clean Access. The legacy name Clean Access is still widely used in the industry, but this book will use the new name: Cisco NAC Appliance. 24 Chapter 3: The Building Blocks in a Cisco NAC Appliance Design

  • Cisco NAC Appliance Improves Security for Education Networks
    White Paper Cisco NAC Appliance Improves Security for Education Networks Summary Educational institutions face difficult challenges related to the protection of their information networks. The severity and frequency of worms and viruses have increased at the same time that dependence on the network for delivery of critical teaching tools and services has increased. These problems are exacerbated by three characteristics unique to these institutions and their networks: Spiking. Educational networks, especially those on campuses with residential halls, experience a surge of new users at the start of each semester. During times of worm and virus activity, helpdesks are often overwhelmed by the number of infected computers. Values. The underlying philosophy of educational institutions is often one of openness and shared learning. Imposing network controls similar to those used by corporations is inconsistent with these core values. Diverse users. Unlike corporate networks, which exist mainly to support employees, educational networks support a large array of constituents: students, faculty, administrators, visiting scholars, guests and community users, conference attendees, to name a few. Managing these diverse groups with their diverse needs represents a significant challenge. Cisco has developed Cisco NAC Appliance, a network admissions control (NAC) product that automatically detects, isolates, and cleans infected or vulnerable devices that attempt to access the network. With Cisco NAC Appliance, administrators can define security policies as broadly or narrowly as they like as they apply to a defined group of users. Cisco NAC Appliance aims to balance the unique network-related challenges educational institutions face with a robust, effective policy enforcement mechanism that dramatically reduces threats to the network.

Authentication Authentication은 네트워크에 접속하는 사용자나 장치에 대해 검증하는 과정이다. 통상적으로 사용자명/비밀번호를 통해 제공되는데 경우에 따라서는 장치의 MAC 주소가 인증의 수단으로 사용되기도 한다. Authorization Authorization은 인증된 장치가 어떤 네트워크 자원에 대해서 접근할 수 있는지에 대해 결정하는 과정이다. 인증된 장치의 종류나 식별된 사용자의 그룹에 따라 접근할 수 있는 네트워크, 서비스 및 시간대를 제한할 수 있다. Accounting Accounting은 장치가 네트워크를 접근한 기록을 남겨 향후 과금이나 보안상의 목적으로 사용할 수 있도록 해주는 과정이다. 이를 통해 어떤 장치를 누가, 언제, 어디서, 어떻게 사용했는지 확인할 수 있다. 이 같은 AAA 기능이 네트워크 접근제어의 기본 기술로 오랜 기간 사용되었는데 최근 네트워크 단말들의 다양한 보안 문제로 인해 단말의 보안 규제 준수상태에 따라 네트워크 접속 가능 여부를 결정하길 원하게 되었다. 이에 단말의 사용자에 대한 식별을 뛰어넘어 장치의 종류가 무엇인지 장치의 현재 보안설정이나 상태를 확인하여 관리자가 정한 조건에 부합하는 단말만이 네트워크에 접속할 수 있도록 해주는 제품군을 NAC라는 명칭으로 부르게 되었다.
