As businesses grow and merge, they often end up with a network sprawl of duplicate data center resources and silos. This increases operating costs and complexity, while reducing the availability and reliability of critical data center resources. Failure to address these issues can result in outages, a limited ability to expand data center capabilities, and compromised business resiliency. Data center inefficiencies make it difficult to deliver a level of application services that users demand. Data Center Network Services Solutions are evolving toward architectures in which networks, computer systems, and storage devices act in unison. To achieve this, data centers need an end to end architecture that is efficient, adaptable, and scalable. As IT organizations migrate from fragmented, older data centers to more cost-effective ones, they must develop an architecture that can serve as the foundation for a next-generation data center.

Public Cloud Architecture Services

The most recognizable model of cloud computing is the public cloud model, under which cloud services are provided in a virtualized environment. Public clouds are constructed using pooled shared physical resources, and accessible over a public network such as the internet. Public clouds can be defined in contrast to private clouds which ring-fence the pool of underlying computing resources. This creates a distinct cloud platform to which only a single organization has access. A public cloud is one based on the standard cloud computing model, in which a service provider makes resources available to the public over the Internet. Public cloud services may be free or offered on a pay per usage model. Public cloud differentiates between the private cloud, which is a proprietary network or data center that uses cloud computing technologies. A private cloud is managed by the organization it serves.

Cloud Services — Hybrid Cloud

Hybrid cloud services are an environment which uses a mix of on premises, private cloud and third-party, public cloud services with orchestration between the two platforms. By allowing workloads to move between private and public clouds as computing needs and costs change, hybrid gives businesses greater flexibility and more data deployment options. Hybrid at the core lets you respond quickly, frees up capital, allows you to scale up or down to meet unknown demand, and reduce costs. An enterprise can deploy an on premises private cloud to host sensitive or critical workloads, but use a third-party public cloud provider, such as Google Compute Engine, to host less critical resources, such as test and development workloads. To hold customer-facing archival and backup data, a hybrid cloud services could also use Amazon S3. By spreading out over a hybrid cloud, you keep each aspect in the most efficient environment.

Cloud Services — Private Cloud

Private cloud services are one in which the services and infrastructure are maintained on a private network. These clouds offer the greatest level of security and control, but they require the company to still purchase and maintain all the software and infrastructure. Which reduces the cost savings. The private cloud is a cost-effective, rapid implementation alternative to building or buying a Do It Yourself (DIY) private cloud. The Private Cloud is fully segregated, dedicated 100% to each client and delivered as-a-service. A private cloud is the obvious choice when your business is part of an industry that must conform to strict security and data privacy issues. Choose private cloud services when your business is your data and your applications. Therefore, control and security are paramount. Run a next-generation cloud data center efficiently and effectively on its own then a private cloud is an excellent choice.

Cloud Services — Public Cloud

Public cloud services are based on the standard computing model. In which a service provider makes resources, such as applications and storage, available to the general public over the Internet. Public cloud services may be free or offered on a pay per usage model. The term public cloud arose to differentiate between the standard model and the private cloud, which is a proprietary network or data center that uses cloud computing technologies, such as virtualization. It is managed by the organization it serves. A third model, the hybrid cloud, is maintained by both internal and external providers. Examples of public clouds include AWS EC2, IBM’s Bluemix, Oracle, and Azure. The most recognizable model of cloud computing is the public cloud model. Under which services are provided in a virtualized environment. Constructed using pooled shared physical resources, and accessible over a public network such as the internet.

Identity And Access Management

Your business needs immediate, easy and secure access to information. But you must balance that with access controls that secure protected information and help you meet government mandates. With identity powered access solutions, you can quickly and cost effectively integrate Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies across local, mobile and cloud environments. Our solutions use integrated identity information to create, modify, and retire identities and control their access. IAM is a security policy management and control platform. We provide Identity Management, Access Management, Single Sign-On (SSO), access governance, identity tracking and Active Directory (AD) administration. IAM Networks can make it easier for users or managers to request, review and approve secure access to resources. We are challenged to grant ‘just enough’ access and authority for people to do their jobs. Without IAM solutions access control, you end up granting more rights or access than you should.

Users link up their own devices, your company is increasing its geographic reach, and some of your operations have moved to the cloud. The Internet of Things (IoT) links more devices to your network. Adversaries have become more sophisticated, and it can take months or years before threats are found. Security services help you get the most from your cybersecurity program and technology investments. IAM Networks can implement the technologies allowing you to grant and enforce the necessary user privileges. Organizations that use services for security get access to consultants and experts to support their staff with the latest knowledge and capabilities. They also help improve time to threat detection and response. And, by reducing complexity, you’ll improve your ability to adapt to changing business priorities. Give users secure access to the resources they need. Balance the need to revoke access with enabling immediate access to IT resources.

Identity And Access Management For Regulatory Compliance

Demonstrate compliance with regulations or mandates that require controls to enforce least privilege access to sensitive information. Current certification processes are a burden on IT and the business. Efficiently demonstrate access controls that limit access to only those that need it. With identity powered security we can help you to achieve identity powered security by providing the tools you need to aggregate identity information from across your IT infrastructure, and integrate this information into your security monitoring tools, delivering the essential identity context teams need to recognize and address potential attacks faster than ever before thought possible. Customer privacy, valuable assets, and your organization’s reputation are at risk. We recognize these fundamental changes and helps you respond with Identity and Access Management. IAM is a security policy management and control platform. Essentially, it tells you who and what is connecting to your wired and wireless network.

Control Access To IT Resources

You need to reduce manual work, speed up approval processes, and make sure only the right people have access to IAM solutions whether on premise or in the cloud. Identity and Access Management solutions ideally with user self-service helps enforce compliance and governance with corporate access policies and enhances the security of your infrastructure. It also helps ensure compliance with IEEE 802.1X, which spells out authentication protocols for wired and especially wireless networks. And since it automates and simplifies policy enforcement, it simplifies operations. Given that effective security can involve multiple activities, it may sound complicated. In addition, many companies don’t have the resources to make the most effective use of identity and access management platforms. We offer design and implementation services for IAM. This can help ensure that your infrastructure supports your company’s unique, specific needs.

Additionally, we provide a way to centrally record and audit changes across your most critical platforms, including Windows, Linux, UNIX, and Active Directory.

Detection And Disruption Of Data Breaches

Forensic analysis of data breaches usually finds that clear evidence of malicious activity was sitting in audit logs. If the security team had known about the activity, they could have stopped, or at least mitigated, the security threat. But it is difficult to know which activities pose real or potential threats, and require investigation. To quickly identify threats before they cause damage. You need real Identity and Access Management solutions time information and analysis of security events as they occur. You need to rapidly spot things that are out of the ordinary and may require a closer look. Use of SIEM technology helps you establish baselines of normal activity patterns in your environment. This allows real-time security analytics to help you identify inconsistencies, without knowing exactly what you are looking for. To more deeply enrich the context of your security intelligence. You can complement the capabilities of SIEM with a change monitoring solution.

SDN

Software-defined networking (SDN) is enabling organizations to accelerate application deployment and delivery. Dramatically reducing IT costs through policy enabled workflow automation. SDN technology enables cloud architectures by delivering automated, on demand application delivery and mobility at scale. With SDN it enhances it the benefits of data center virtualization. Increasing resource flexibility and utilization and reducing infrastructure costs and overhead. SDN accomplishes these business objectives by converging the management of network and application services into centralized, extensible orchestration platforms. That can automate the provisioning and configuration of the entire infrastructure. Common centralized IT policies bring together disparate IT groups and workflows. The result is a modern infrastructure. That can deliver new applications and services in minutes, rather than days or weeks required in the past.

Software-defined networking delivers speed and agility when deploying new applications and business services. Flexibility, policy, and programmability are the hallmarks of SDN solutions. With a platform capable of handling the most demanding networking need of today and tomorrow. Ignite business agility with software-defined networking. Today’s enterprise data centers serve a dynamic and unpredictable business environment. Where IT is tasked with maintaining control of strategic assets on premises while delivering cloud capabilities across the enterprise. SDN delivers the cloud architecture that businesses need for greater flexibility and agility, while bringing hyper-efficiency to your data center. Technologies are the foundation of SDN across the range of software and hardware platforms — from leading vendors as well as open source. Whether it’s a move to software-defined compute, storage, or networking, SDN builds agile enterprises ready for the cloud. SDN can drive positive impacts for your business.

SDN — Network Functions Virtualization

Take control of your hybrid workloads. Including running them in containers. And move them across servers, racks, and clouds using standards-based overlay networks and multi-tenanted hybrid gateways. Network Controller allows you to use Network Functions Virtualization to easily deploy virtual machines (VMs) for Software Load Balancing (SLB) to optimize network traffic loads for your tenants. And RAS gateways to provide tenants with the connectivity options they need between Internet, on premise, and cloud resources. You can use network controller to manage a data center firewall on VMs and Microsoft Hyper-V hosts. Microsoft Network Platform uses new features for existing Microsoft technologies. You can use DNS policy to customize your DNS server responses to queries. Use a converged NIC that handles combined Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) and Ethernet traffic, use Switch Embedded Teaming (SET) to create Microsoft Hyper-V virtual switches connected to RDMA NICs.

SDN — Managed Network Security

Dynamically segment your network based on workloads. By using a distributed firewall and network security groups to apply rich policies within, and across, segments. Plus, layer enforcement by routing traffic to virtualized firewall appliances for even greater levels of security. The impact of changing customer demands for capacity, downtime expectations, application performance and user experiences tends to be that IT operators must not be constrained by infrastructure available in a single location. To date this has resulted in several complex scenarios including stretch clusters and Layer-2 extension. What we learned in getting Microsoft Azure public cloud services to where they are now. Where an estimated 100,000 virtual networks are on-boarded every month, is that the simplest scenario is to build an overlay SDN. In this style of networking virtual networks are built on top of, and abstracted from, the physical network so that tenants and workloads are isolated from one another.

Amazon AWS Identity and Access Management supports identity federation for delegated access to the AWS Management Console or AWS APIs. With identity federation, external identities (are granted secure access to resources in your AWS account. Without having to create IAM users. These external identities can come from your corporate identity provider such as Active Directory or from the AWS Directory Service or from a web identity provider, such as AWS Cognito, Login with AWS or any OpenID Connect compatible provider.

Multi Factor Authentication

Protect your AWS environment by using AWS MFA. A security feature available at no extra cost that augments user name and password credentials. AWS MFA requires users to prove physical possession of a hardware AWS MFA token or MFA enabled mobile device. By providing a valid AWS MFA code. With AWS MFA enabled, when a user signs in to an AWS website, they will be prompted for their user name and password (the first factor — what they know). As well as for an authentication code from their AWS MFA device (the second factor — what they have). Taken together, these multiple factors provide increased security for your AWS account settings and resources. You can enable AWS MFA for your AWS account and for individual IAM users you have created under your account. AWS MFA can be also be used to control access to AWS service APIs. After you’ve obtained a supported hardware or virtual AWS MFA device.

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure SDN

VMware vCloud NFV Software-Defined Networking — **Home — SDN — Cisco Software-Defined Networking — Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure SDN**

Take a holistic, system based approach to data center security with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (Cisco ACI) security solutions. These solutions provide a common policy based operational model across Cisco ACI ready networks. As a result, you can reduce cost and complexity without compromising data center functionality. Cisco ACI security solutions can be managed as a pool of resources, allowing administrators to intelligently stitch them to applications and transactions using the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (Cisco APIC). ACI security solutions scale on demand, has programmable automation, and provides transparent policy based security for both physical and virtual environments. Cisco ACI security solutions allow organizations to take full advantage of the power, flexibility, and performance of their new Cisco ACI data center environments without compromising functionality or security.

The Cisco Adaptive Security Virtual Appliance (ASAv). This appliance brings the power of Cisco ASA to the virtual domain and private cloud environments. It runs the same software as the physical appliance to deliver proven security functionality. You can use it to protect virtual workloads within your network. Later, you can expand, contract, or shift the location of these workloads over time and span physical, virtual, and public cloud infrastructures. In the past, computing infrastructure elements were implemented with specialized hardware built for that purpose. With the advent of x86 server virtualization and the need for more power. Businesses are deploying their computing, storage, and network infrastructure with virtualization for the benefits they gain. These include deployment flexibility, increased server utilization, and ease of management. The Cisco Adaptive Security Virtual Appliance runs as a VM inside a hypervisor in a virtual host.

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure Security

The appliance has been fully and transparently integrated into the fabric of the next-gen Cisco ACI data center architecture. For those deployments, the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller provides a single point of control for both network and security management. It can provision the appliance’s security as a service, manage policy, and monitor the entire network and security environment for a unified view. This approach removes the limitations of traditional network oriented security solutions, allowing for significantly streamlined provisioning. In the Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure topology independent environment, Cisco ASAv services are managed as a pool of security resources. These resources can be selected and attached to specific applications or transactions to provide dynamic, scalable, policy based security. It supports both traditional and next-gen software SDN and Cisco ACI environments to provide policy enforcement and threat inspection across multi site environments.

Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller

The Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller is the unifying point of automation and management for the Application Centric Infrastructure fabric. The Cisco APIC provides centralized access to all fabric information, optimizes the application life cycle for scale and performance, and supports flexible application provisioning across physical and virtual resources. Centralized application-level policy engine for physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. Detailed visibility, telemetry, and health scores by application and by tenant. Designed around open standards and open APIs. Robust implementation of multi-tenant security, Quality of Service (QoS), and high availability. Integration with management systems such as VMware, Microsoft, and OpenStack. Designed for automation, programmability, and centralized management, the Cisco APIC itself exposes northbound APIs through XML and JSON. It provides both a command-line interface (CLI) and GUI which utilize the APIs to manage the fabric holistically.

Cisco Adaptive Security Virtual Appliance

Purpose built for data center security. The Cisco Adaptive Security Virtual Appliance brings full Cisco ASA firewall and VPN capabilities to virtualized environments. To help safeguard traffic and multi tenant architectures. Optimized for data center deployments, it’s designed to work in multiple hypervisor environments, reduce administrative overhead, and increase operational efficiency. The Cisco Adaptive Security Virtual Appliance runs as a VM inside a hypervisor in a virtual host. Virtual switch independent, it may be deployed in Cisco, hybrid, and non Cisco based data centers. VMware, KVM, Microsoft Hyper-V, Amazon Web Services, and other cloud platforms offer flexibility and choice. Predetermined configurations accelerate and simplify security service provisioning to match the speed of application deployment. These configurations provide the appliance with critical security functions that dynamically scale to protect assets as business demands change.
