  4. 1 Introducing Safe NAC

  5. Trusted Dynamic Enterprise Safe Network Access Control Reference Customers • Gwinnett County Public Schools • Iona College (US) • Wolf Creek (Canada) • HanseatiCContor Key Features • Access Control for Guests, LAN & Wireless • Endpoint Malware Protection • Verify OS and End Point Configuration • Controls Automatic Remediation • Role-based Post Admission Control (MS AD Integration) • Audit Reports for Compliance Differentiation • Non Disruptive Multi-vendor Deployment • Support for Multi-authentication, Multi-endpoint environments • Integration with Multiple Network Elements Provides Reduced Cost • Centralized Management

  6. Comprehensive Enterprise NAC Solution • Integration with Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitches • Dynamic User Network Profiles for NAC Integrated Windows Login • Integration with VitalQIP • DNAC technology for 3rd Party switches LAN Users Wireless Users • Integration with Alcatel-Lucent WLAN Solution • CyberGatekeeper Remote in-line appliance 802.1x Users • CyberGatekeeper Policy Server VPN Users • CyberGatekeeper Remote in-line appliance Guests • On-demand Web agent - Windows, Linux& Mac Continuous Surveillance, Highly Available Solution

  7. Security with Authentication, HIC and Dynamic Access Control • MS Windows Login

  8. Authentication and Policy Enforcement with OmniSwitch 4 3 OmniSwitch redirects traffic to the CyberGatekeeper Policy Server and the remediation servers. CyberGatekeeper policy server receives HIC report from CyberGatekeeper Agent and informs the OnmiSwitch if the device has passed or failed. 2 CyberGatekeeper Policy Server OmniSwitch provides authentication and identifies user profile. It checks if HIC check is needed for this user. (802.1x, MAC, Captive Portal) Remediation Server(s) 1 802.1x User 5 Employee, contractor or guest connects to the network Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch If HIC Passed , OmniSwitch selectively allows device traffic to production network following policy in user profile. If HIC Failed, OmniSwitch restricts traffic to remediation network only Regular LAN User Production Network Guest Resident or On-demand Agent Continuous Surveillance

  9. Dynamic User Network Profiles #3 AuthServer queries domain to obtain groups #2 Endpoint is authenticated and audited… AuthServ #5 User granted access according to correct profile… HIC Server Domain X ü OmniSwitch #4 CyberGatekeeper resolves User/Group and updates UNP… #1 OmniSwitch admits new endpoint to network under default restricted UNP and registers new Mac address with HIC server A seamless NAC process that utilizes Windows Login and does not require 802.1x

  10. Redundant and Fail Open Architecture HIC Server #1 HIC Server cluster members are state aware of all connections registered by OmniSwitch. Fail-over does not interrupt user sessions. ? ü OmniSwitch HIC Server #2 OmniSwitch can be configured with primary and backup HIC servers as well as “fail open” parameters in case both HIC servers are unavailable.

  11. Authentication and Policy Enforcement with OmniAccess 4 3 OmniAccess restricts traffic to the CyberGatekeeper Policy Server and the remediation servers. CyberGatekeeper policy server receives HIC report from CyberGatekeeper Agent and informs the OmniAccess Controller if the device has passed or failed. 2 CyberGatekeeper Policy Server The OmniAccess Controller provides authentication and identifies user network profile. (802.1x, Captive Portal) Remediation Server(s) 1 802.1x User 5 Employee, contractor or guest connects to the wireless network Alcatel-Lucent OmniAccess Wireless Controller If HIC Passed, the OmniAccess controller allows device traffic to production network with the endpoint placed in the correct VLAN. If HIC Failed, OmniAccess restricts traffic to remediation network only Employee Production Network Guest Resident or On-demand Agent Continuous Surveillance

  12. Remediation Servers Authentication and Policy Enforcement with VitalQIP • DHCP discover/request packets are “intercepted” by the plug-in module in VitalQIP. • The plug-in queries the CyberGatekeeper policy server to check whether endpoint is compliant. • Depending on the results (pass/fail/unknown), the plug-in module inserts user class options into the DHCP discover/request packets. • If a security policy violation is detected the endpoint is quarantined with access to the remediation servers. • VitalQIP assigns access based on the assigned user class. • CyberGatekeeper integrates with VitalQIP using a plug-in module. • Deployment requires no significant network modifications • 1MB Agent for Windows, Mac, Linux • Management of the plug-in module is integrated into the VitalQIP user interface • Enforcement using standard DHCP options • Relies on standard DHCP attributes

  15. NAC Appliance Market Unit Shipment and Revenue Forecasts (World), 2005-2015 NAC Appliance market in 2008 was approximately $110M Compound Annual Growth Rate (2008-2015): 15.0% • Most Organizations Have Yet to Rollout NAC World Network Access Control Products Market, Frost & Sullivan, N69E-74, September 2009

  16. Market Distribution NAC Appliance Market: Revenue Distribution by Vertical Market (World), 2008 World Network Access Control Products Market, Frost & Sullivan, N69E-74, September 2009

  17. Market Segment Drivers • Education • Have thousands of concurrent users requiring different levels of network access • High percentage of unmanaged endpoints • Is more price sensitive • Compete on factors such as scalability, interoperability, endpoint coverage , strong on guest access. • Strong competition from Bradford and Cisco • Finance • Present the most lucrative targets for malware writers and cyber attacks • High security requirements that NAC was originally envisioned to enforce • Highly regulated, and NAC can enable demonstration of compliance • Also require guest networking capabilities • Most endpoints are managed, and standardized on the Windows • Long-standing relationships with large IT vendors such as Cisco and Symantec • Government • Smaller state and local government organizations have shown strong interest in NAC • Breadth of enforcement options (such as 802.1x and DHCP management, combined with inline enforcement) and strong quarantine abilities are very important • NAC vendors to achieve certain certifications • Developing partnerships with the correct distributors and IT resellers is crucial • Government organizations have very closed operations • Healthcare • Interest in NAC is primarily motivated by HIPAA, demonstration of compliance • Need to demonstrate ability to reduce help desk workload • high number of unmanaged endpoints • Myriad of endpoint types such as IP enabled healthcare-related technologies • Complex networks with numerous static IP address-based endpoints World Network Access Control Products Market, Frost & Sullivan, N69E-74, September 2009

  18. 3 Market Trends and Challenges

  19. Why Are Customers Buying • Guest Network Services • Isolating guests and visitors from corporate network • Providing guests with limited connectivity - Internet access only. • Commonly start with wireless guest then extend to the wired network. • Endpoint Baselining • Determining if endpoints are compliant with device • Providing support for remediation • Identity-aware Networking • Providing visibility and control over user behavior • Monitor user traffic and enforce access to critical resources • Monitoring & Containment • Monitoring endpoints or network traffic to detect and quickly contain endpoints that begin to exhibit dangerous behavior. • Monitoring/containment is a secondary driver for the other three usage cases. NAC market in 2008 was approximately $221M • Customers Will Look First to Their Current Infrastructure Vendor *Gartner MQ for Network Access Control, March 2009, G00166224
