1. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 1 GIAC Enterprises Network Deployment Phase 1: The Perimeter Rodney Caudle, Jay Radcliffe, and Jim Voorhees

2. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 2 Objectives Protect the Critical Assets Manage Recurring Costs Minimize Implementation Time Ensure Supportability

3. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 3 Protect Critical Assets Layered Approach to Perimeter Security Architecture –3 Layers: Routers, Firewalls, IPS DMZ Zones (segregation) for additional visibility and protection IPS instead of IDS allows for protection instead of detection

4. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 4 Manage Recurring Costs Purchasing a product that includes maintenance of signatures and updates Building an architecture around an all-in-one device Selecting a vendor which provides options for long-term support

5. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 5 Minimize Implementation Time All-in-One Solution consolidates firewall and IPS –Reduces the complexity –Reduces acquisition time Purchase and Own Solution –Reduces acquisition time –May need to address long-term support (MSSP)

6. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 6 Ensure Supportability IBM ISS offers –MSSP Option Native (not partner) –All-in-One Device –Additional Features –Staff Familiarity

7. SANS Technology Institute GDWP Presentation 7 Conclusion All-in-One Solution from IBM ISS –Exceeds the requirements –Simplifies implementation –Reduces recurring costs –Long-Term Support Options Available
