You are meeting with a customer who is concerned about ongoing network threats and vulnerabilities within the corporate network. How should you position the Cisco SDN with this customer?
A.
Cisco SDN solutions are adaptive, allowing for innovative behavioral methods to be deployed in order to automatically recognize new types of threats as they arise. Mutual awareness can exist among and between security services and network intelligence, thus increasing security effectiveness and enabling a much more proactive response to new types of threats.
B.
The Cisco Self-Defending Network is the Cisco solution that protects the network of an
organization. The SDN strategy offers security products that will defend your network before attacks occur. SDN products use industry-leading technologies, which will enable your company to stay up to date on network security.
C.
Most network threats and vulnerabilities arise from inefficient access control. Cisco VLAN solutions are a part of the Self-Defending Network strategy, and can segment users into different workgroups or virtual LANs basedonwhom they are, not where they are. In turn, VLAN solutions prohibit hackers from gaining network access, and will dramatically lessen the pains you are experiencing with network threats and vulnerabilities.
D.
Cisco NAC is a complete, end-to-end security solution that enables endpoints to be admitted to the network based on their adherence to security policy as enforced by network devices, such as routers and switches. NAC is a solution that will protect business processes and the network of your organization by identifying, preventing, and adapting to security threats.
