Download or read book Advanced Host Intrusion Prevention with CSA written by Chad Sullivan and published by Cisco Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protecting systems within an enterprise has proven as important to overall security as securing the enterprise perimeter. Over the past few years, the number of vulnerabilities stemming from weaknesses in applications and operating systems has grown dramatically. In direct correlation with the number of weaknesses discovered, the number of viruses, worms, and security attacks has also exploded across the Internet. To add to the typical virus issues that businesses have had to confront, there are also malicious programs infiltrating organizations today in the form of spyware and adware. Prevent day-zero attacks Enforce acceptable-use policies Develop host-IPS project implementation plans Evaluate management hierarchy installation options, including single-server, multiserver, and built-in database usage Learn about CSA agents and manual and scripted installation options Understand policy components and custom policy creation Use and filter information from CSA event logs Troubleshoot CSA deployments with agent and management server logs and built-in troubleshooting tools Protecting systems where the private data and intellectual property resides is no longer considered a function of perimeter defense systems but has instead become the domain of endpoint protection software, such as host Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS). Cisco® Security Agent (CSA) is the Cisco Systems® host-IPS solution. CSA provides the security controls that corporations need to deal with threats to host and desktop computing resources. Advanced Host Intrusion Prevention with CSA is a practical guide to getting the most out of CSA deployments. Through methodical explanation of advanced CSA features and concepts, this book helps ease the fears of security administrators seeking to install and configure a host IPS. This book explains in detail such topics as installation of the management servers, installation of the agents for mass deployment, granular agent policy creation, advanced policy creation, real-world troubleshooting techniques, and best practices in implementation methodology. This guide also provides a practical installation framework taken from the actual installation and support experience of the authors. This book helps you implement host IPS appropriately, giving your organization better protection from the various threats that are impacting your business while at the same time enabling you to comply with various legal requirements put forth in such legislation as HIPAA, SOX, SB1386, and VISA PCI.

Book excerpt: Prevent security breaches by protecting endpoint systems with Cisco Security Agent, the Cisco host Intrusion Prevention System Secure your endpoint systems with host IPS Build and manipulate policies for the systems you wish to protect Learn how to use groups and hosts in the Cisco Security Agent architecture and how the components are related Install local agent components on various operating systems Explore the event database on the management system to view and filter information Examine Cisco Security Agent reporting mechanisms for monitoring system activity Apply Application Deployment Investigation to report on installed applications, hotfixes, and service packs Collect detailed information on processes and see how they use and are used by system resources Create and tune policies to control your environment without impacting usability Learn how to maintain the Cisco Security Agent architecture, including administrative access roles and backups Cisco Security Agent presents a detailed explanation of Cisco Security Agent, illustrating the use of host Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in modern self-defending network protection schemes. At the endpoint, the deployment of a host IPS provides protection against both worms and viruses. Rather than focusing exclusively on reconnaissance phases of network attacks a host IPS approaches the problem from the other direction, preventing malicious activity on the host by focusing on behavior. By changing the focus to behavior, damaging activity can be detected and blocked-regardless of the attack. Cisco Security Agent is an innovative product in that it secures the portion of corporate networks that are in the greatest need of protection-the end systems. It also has the ability to prevent a day-zero attack, which is a worm that spreads from system to system, taking advantage of vulnerabilities in networks where either the latest patches have not been installed or for which patches are not yet available. Cisco Security Agent utilizes a unique architecture that correlates behavior occurring on the end systems by monitoring clues such as file and memory access, process behavior, COM object access, and access to shared libraries as well as other important indicators. Cisco Security Agent is the first book to explore the features and benefits of this powerful host IPS product. Divided into seven parts, the book provides a detailed overview of Cisco Security Agent features and deployment scenarios. Part I covers the importance of endpoint security. Part II examines the basic components of the Cisco Security Agent architecture. Part III addresses agent installation and local use. Part IV discusses the Cisco Security Agent management console''s reporting and monitoring capabilities. Part V covers advanced Cisco Security Agent analysis features. Part VI covers Cisco Security Agent policy, implementation, and management. Part VII presents additional installation and management information. Whether you are evaluating host IPS in general or looking for a detailed deployment guide for Cisco Security Agent, this book will help you lock down your endpoint systems and prevent future attacks. "While there are still a lot of ways that security can go wrong, Cisco Security Agent provides a defense even when something is wrong. I remember the email that came around from our system administrator that said, ''There''s something attacking our web server. We''re not sure what it is, but Stormwatch is blocking it.'' That was the Nimda worm-the first of a long line of attacks stopped by Cisco Security Agent." -Ted Doty, Product Manager, Security Technology Group, Cisco Systems® This security book is part of the Cisco Press® Networking Technology Series. Security titles from Cisco Press help networking professionals secure critical data and resources, prevent and mitigate network attacks, and build end-to-end self-defending networks.

Download or read book Introduction to Computer Security written by Matt Bishop and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 2005 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Computer Security draws upon Bishop's widely praised Computer Security: Art and Science, without the highly complex and mathematical coverage that most undergraduate students would find difficult or unnecessary. The result: the field's most concise, accessible, and useful introduction. Matt Bishop thoroughly introduces fundamental techniques and principles for modeling and analyzing security. Readers learn how to express security requirements, translate requirements into policies, implement mechanisms that enforce policy, and ensure that policies are effective. Along the way, the author explains how failures may be exploited by attackers--and how attacks may be discovered, understood, and countered. Supplements available including slides and solutions.
