Vixa and her Network Defenders colleagues Win a major fight against Bot Herders Cartels. Please Cast your Vote: "The Realm Citizens Join The Fight" CISCO Security Comic Script by Virginia Benedict
New York, NY - Nov. 2009 - Vixa’s intuitive adaptive and light speed response powers were instrumental in bringing down and capturing two major Cyber Cartels.
While three ruthless, competing Cartels were engaged in War Lords activities for dominance and control over several primary domain controllers around planet Earth, Vixa, Wall, Jux, and Trace gained advantage and managed to trace and capture two of the three cartels. The Realm Citizens got on board the fight against Bot Herders and Cyber Criminals.
The 10 Finalists are in! Vote for VIXA's powers.

With this post I am hoping to start a discussion on the many culprits of data-leak. That is data leak through Social Engineering, through logical environments, and/or through physical trespassing.
Any and all topics releated to data loss, data leak, information assurance, social engineering tactics are welcome in this thread.

"Expand your thoughts a bit here? Take one of your three and advance a position perhaps that we an debate?" Security and cost are some of the main attractions driving the enterprise incentives to deploy Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs), for example. However, there exist many controversies centered on the design and deployment of VLANs in the Data Center, the Metro and the Campus of distributed networks. It can be easily demonstrated that despite the claims that the technology developers make about the inherent advantages of a Virtual Infrastructure, there are serious vulnerabilities not just in the implementation methodologies; but also in the architecture of the technology itself. Network infrastructures are highly complex beasts by default; layering another set of complexities adds almost insurmountable architectural, design, and deployment challenges to the securing of data and a company’s intellectual property. These challenges and vulnerabilities provide the perfect vehicles for black-hatters and competitors to perpetrate and breach the security of networks; creating economies of scales for the organized criminal. For starters, Data- Leak, whether through inherent technological flaws (e.g., memory leak), human error, and/or criminal activities is an isidious beast at best.

What are the technical differences and similarities between VoIP and IP Telephony?
Besides the obvious differences, what are the best practices for migrating to either of these voice technologies? What are the primary drivers for chossing one over the other? How can distributed mobile, telecommuting, and office voice technologies be managed. Is hardware device standardization imperative for effective management practices? What are the applications?

Just watched the 2 new video podcasts - Loop Guard with JRP, and Marlowe Fenne's UC talk. I like it - I like it a lot. Due to the package sizing with iTunes the segments must be shorter than audio only - but video really helps with hints like JRP's piece.
There is a greater challenge when trying to express broad strategies like Marlow tackled. The video was there - but IMHO it didn't necessarily add value. I really think this is a good thing to do in a series or installment fashion. So perhaps a UC series would intro the 6.0 neat stuff like MArlow did, and then have 5 or 6 segments released with it that had the nuts/bolts stuff JPR could show (like he did with Loop Guard.
Just opening the topic for comments - I'm sure others bring different perspectives. I like the big message stuff peppered with enough optional detail that I could drive an associate to review or even a client. So multi-segment video podcasts seem like a good fit where users could elect to download only the segments they wanted/needed.

I have been struggling here lately on the topic of how to properly Secure my Voice Network. I heard the PodCast on the ASA implementation and have read that is the way to go. However the how is always left out.... I think a segment on this would be great.
Can you explain in more detail how the ASA 5500 is implemented in the CUCM World. Voice Security is starting to be a reoccurring theme, but I am not finding much information pertaining to the Cisco Recommended Procedures or How tos (if you will.)
For Example:What type of ASA is required for what level? When I have a HQ of 2000 Phones and remote sites also with 1000....what should be used at the locations? Is there a Matrix of some sort?
How is it implemented (obviously at the network level) but how is the CUCM connected..... via IPSEC with the ASA?
Is there an SRND for a ASA Voice environment?
Obviously due to the TLS Proxy the ASA is very attractive, but what are the ups and downs compared to GetVPN?
For many people dealing with Firewalls and ASA's on a daily basis these questions might seem a little basic, but for people coming from the "Voice" Unified Communications Area there are a lot of things left unsaid. Unfortunately, when installing a CUCM Cluster and the Customer wants a Secure Voice Network.... they do not understand that this is more network security than voice, and it is up to us to magically come up with the answer.
This topic of Voice Security is becoming the number 1 issue with large companies today and the only official statement that I find states that we should use the ASA's. Great.... but how?
Thanks

Hi,
is there any new information about a CUCM Secure Segment?
I have another couple of points that could be added.... (It all seems like a Grey Topic right now, where no one really wants to create an official solution/SRND and ect)
-The use of an External CA instead of the Internal CAPF. -How to migrate from the Internal CAPF to an External CA -What is Cisco's Recommended solution to CUCM-Gateway Security (IPSEC or ASA or ? ) -When will the user ID and Pin submition for Extension Mobility be secured (right now everything is broadcasted in Plain Text) or what the plans are.

Can someone please illustrate where Cisco's Solutions start and stop as related to Green IT? I am not talking hardware [i.e. the Nexus/infiniband/10-40g/VMWare/Consolidated Switching/Energy Efficient Ethernet/LB power down redundant firewalls and hand off to EMC/NetApp storage, and that it can be housed in an APC HD rack/cooling.] I am not asking about Cisco DataCenter energy audits/planning/education. I am asking beyond the hardware or consulting, and static efficiency identification tools, what other Green IT products does Cisco offer? Do you have any real-time datacenter energy management software suites? Are they holistic/agnostic that have visibility into facilities cooling and down to rack and x86 server level? I recognize the product hardware readiness and advancements but do tools exist to leverage them? For example the Tools to help change business behavior and processes like automatically shedding heat/power load on the nights and weekends and restart again when work load increases?

"jimmy, Thanks!
To really execute DC nights and weekend cost savings today as it was discussed in the TechTV presentation, it appears that a patchwork of scripts, software, tools, and careful QC testing would ensue. It may be possible to shed overly redundant DC loads, in the presentation EMC/VMWare said 40% of power costs can be saved by shedding loads during nights and weekends.
This could involve using VMWARE Virtual Center w/ Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), IBM Director w/ Power Executive, HP SIM w/ DSC/HP Insight Power Manager and Cisco's IOS Embedded Event Manager (EEM), to shut down load balancers, firewalls, routers, switches, servers, storage, vmware sessions, cooling, monitoring, as needed to achieve the desired goals.
Using VFrame power strip per outlet hard power shut-off seems to be a method of last resort and not suited for benign nightly use due to harmfull impacts of dirty shutdown while gear is doing something. A state full and graceful power down method is needed. Some of the overwhelming factors are synchronizing all the above tools for shutdown plus the NOC (Application, Server, and Network) staff will have a dozen SLA monitoring tools (ping, html gets, heartbeat) that need to stop monitoring the same powered off systems every few seconds. All those NOC alarms and SLA tracking/reporting tools will also have to be turned off and on once they come back into production.
A follow up question does Ciscoworks/View/RME tools let you schedule and manipulate power in mass to a group of devices all at once for nights and weekends? " Very good call. Network Management has a ways to go to catch up with hardware. But isn't that always the case? Ciscoworks does not do that now. They have focused the most recent development stuff on Unified Communications. But I believe it will catch up and get there as time moves forward. So until then, I believe we have to blend elements to come up with a solution that fits. Personally, as I do like the power I get with EEM and VFrame. I have some perl scripts that I also have wrote for real time stats snaggin. Jimmy Ray

Hi all. I attended the 'Physical Layer interconnects for 10GE' panel at Cisco Live last month and there were a ton of questions about the cost/complexity of moving to a unified fabric in the data center. With so much interest and so many open questions, I think this would be a great idea for a show.
Cisco offers some professional services focused around the cable physical layer for Nexus 5000 through APC. The idea behind the services is to provide best practice recommendations to help prepare your data center to meet 10 G/E specs. Here is a link if anyone is interested in taking a look.
