• Attacks are mainly driven by application vulnerabilities, not network

• In most cases the port will be legitimately open

• Apache Struts?

• What about attacks coming from other workloads on the same hypervisor

• Spectre / Meltdown?

• Hybrid Cloud environment – How to protect your workload?

• Containers environment – scale?

Where is it coming from?

How can we secure our workload?

Threat Protection

Segmentation

• Automated zero Trust consistent policy enforcement for segmentation

• Whitelist policies are kept up to date based on application behavior

• Automatically track policy for compliance.

• Run what-if scenarios with live or old data

• You are alerted of anomalies in app behavior

• Breach Detection and custom forensic rule

• File access

• Privilege escalation

• Shell-code execution

• Raw sockets

• Anomalous behavior

• Hash Anomaly Detection

• Data Leak Detection

Reduce your attack Surface quickly as by identify common vulnerabilities and exposures by

• Installed software pkg tracking

• Tracking CVE associated with installed software packages

• Identify the criticality of vulnerability

• Taking action to restrict access or quarantine workloads

The Traditional Approach

Gather Data Analyze the Data

100 Billion Events in 3 Months

Implement the Policy 1 Year Later?

Troubleshooting? Apps Change?

App Guy

• Once apps are defined, global policies set

• Someone has to test

• With Live traffic

• With Historical traffic

• Goes without saying, but without creating disruption…

Policy Simulation and Experimentation

Policy Enforcement into switches/FW?

leaf1# show zoning-rule scope VNID-OF-THE-VRF

3278749166

The contract filters are programmed in the Policy Cam on the Leaf or FW

but this cam is limited in size, and the size is different between switches

Policy Enforcement into Cloud?

Application dependency between clouds?

By default, each security group supportsup to 50 rules and each networkinterface can have up to 5 securitygroups, for a maximum of 250 rules perinterface. If your AWS network is in EC2-Classic, maximum cap limit of 500security groups in each region for eachaccount.

Network Security Groups (NSG)

default limit is 100 can be

increased up to 400. NSG rules per

NSG default limit is 200 can be increased up to 1000.

Firewall rules: Maximum

Number of Stateful

Connections per VM by default is 130,000.

Policy enforcement

How can we enforce this type ofpolicies into our switches? Whichswitches can survive?

How can we maintain this policiesin clouds with consistent?

• Multi-layered threat protection quickly stops threats across the network (NGIPS and Network AMP) and servers (AMP for Endpoints)

Multi-Layered Threat Protection

Summary

• Once threats are detected, infected servers and workloads are contained in real-time by the segmentation architecture.

• Cisco DC threat protection ensures you will have a lower risk of application compromise and a breach
