Advanced Network Security: Trends, Architecture, and Innovation
Presenter: Phil Schacter, and Eric Maiwald
Duration: 3hrs 52min
Description: Security defenses must evolve as enterprise networks, business practices, threats, and compliance requirements change. Coarse-grained network controls such as centralized firewalls are becoming less effective. While firewalls will remain important, network security in general will place greater reliance on identity-based policy enforcement and coordination with endpoint security functions. Security zones of trust will become more logical and less physical as they seek to accommodate outsourcing, virtualization, and other megatrends.
This workshop covers a number of opportunities for adapting defenses and raising the bar, including:
- Security overlays, based on cryptographically protected protocols, to enable creation of distributed, logical zones of trust
- Network control points positioned closer to protected resources with application- and identity-aware controls
- Trusted virtualization services to enable secure, compartmentalized client computing
- Use of network-enforced controls that are independent of topology and leverage user and device identity, such as Cisco new Trusted Security (TrustSec) framework
- Emerging policy services and infrastructure for networks and network applications
What You Will Learn:
Attendees will examine trends in network security and innovative approaches for enforcing access controls, segregating IT assets into security zones, and enabling flexible access by customers and partners.
- What are the business requirements for customer and partner access to protected IT systems and data?
- What are enterprises doing to segregate IT systems and data?
- What new technologies and network security services will enable more granular policy enforcement?
- What are leading network and network security vendors doing to help enterprise customers?
- When to consider deploying emerging frameworks, such as Cisco’s Trusted Security (TrustSec)
- What should be the 2-3 year architecture for network security?
