Re: Cisco Security
I passed the MCNS before 2001 for my Security cert, so that's all I can advise on. I basically had hands on CBACS (IOS Firewall) & PIX experience.

Re: Cisco Security
I took the Pix exam and I felt the format was more difficult than any of the CCNP 2.0 exams or the MCNS exam. There were a lot of type in questions, some of which were particularly vague. There were serveral drag-and-drop task questions which were pretty easy. If there were four slots to fill, you only had four options. All multiple choice questions told you how many selections to make. Some of the multiple choice questions were of the "choose the best answer" variety which can be tough. If you look at the course outline from global knowledge, you'll see what they want you to know for the exam. All in all, it's not terribly difficult if you know the material, but I still didn't find it particularly easy.

Re: Cisco security books [7:31393]
The MCNS book is very good for introducing Cisco security. The Designing Network Security book is ok, but it will put you to sleep if you have a security background. I definitely would say it's not imperative that you have it. If you plan on pursuing the CSS1 certification the IDS book from Cisco Press is pretty good too.

RE: Cisco Security Exam [7:19249]
Hi Steven To do the full Cisco Security thing you must take 5 exams as follows and preferably in this order MCNS Pix Firewall Fundamentals Pix Firewall Advanced Cisco Secure VPN Cisco Intrusion Detection The reason for this approach as I always tell my staff & students is that the MCNS is comprehensive and gives you a great deal of material in the other exams, especially the area of IKE, IPsec, ISAKMP etc. Books Cisco Press Managing Cisco Network Security Designing Network Security Cisco IOS 12.0 Network Security Cisco Secure Internet Security Solutions There is also the McGraw Hill Implementing Cisco Secure VPN's but that is so full of holes and errors I would not bother. There is a book from cisco Press on VPN's due late 2001 written by Andrew Mason & Terri Smith and if it is half as good as Terri is as a VPN course instructor then it will be well worth the money. The odd one out is CSIDS which requires a deal of Unix knowledge especially Solaris, plus some Openview stuff. The key to all the exams is understand fully IKE, ISAkmp and the security process of why & how. If you have not done CCNP or the BCRAN part of CCNPO then i wopuld recommend you take a look at it as background to the IOS side of security. Good luck and if you need any further specific info email me direct.

Re: Books for Cisco Security Specialist [7:4668]
You can find the requirements at the the Cisco web site under training & certs, also I found the below that might help. =>NETWORK SECURITY TRAINING ON CD-ROM The Learning Store carries three new CDs to help students prepare for the Cisco Security Specialist 1 designation. CDs are available for the following courses: -Cisco Secure PIX Firewall Fundamentals (CSPFF) -Cisco Secure PIX Firewall Advanced (CSPFA) -Cisco Secure Virtual Private Networks (CSVPN) Computer-based training modules that include graphics, interactive syntax labs, and written labs, these CDs allow you to complete practice lab situations without having access to the equipment.

Re: Books for Cisco Security Specialist [7:4668]
MCNS gets you most of the way, even on the PIX topics. At that point, if you have a copy of the main PIX configuration guide, and the IPSec configuration guide, that's all you need (both of which can be read through straight off of cisco.com). We got a 515 in the other day that had both books with it. They were even current version documentation, which is rare.. heh. -Brad McConnell.

FYI - From the SANS / Cisco Security Tool [7:35960]
Note for users of Cisco routers concerned about security: A router security audit tool will be announced today, the result of cooperative efforts by experts at the US National Security Agency, UUNET, and Cable & Wireless, and tested and validated by many of the 170 member organizations of the Center for Internet Security. The Router Audit Tool performs an impressively comprehensive check of Cisco router security, gives an overall score, and points the user to the specific corrections for problems found. The tool's authors will conduct a web briefing today at 1:00 PM (1800 UTC). Both the tool and the briefing are free.

RE: Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Interface B [7:73738]
Check out: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20030717-blocked.shtml Everything you need to know about it on one page. It lists the versions vulnerable and what version for the same train that it's fixed in. If you stay in the same train (12.1.5 and 12.1.19 are the same train, as are 12.1.5T and 12.1.15T5), you shouldn't have any problems with hardware compatibility. Always check the hardware compatibility matrix before choosing a URL. I couldn't find it on CCO, but it's there somewhere. It's a tool where you put a check mark next to all the parts of your router - chassis itself, NMs, PAs, WICs, VICs, etc. Then it'll tell you what software is compatible with everything. I might add that the vulnerability is easy to do, using Linux or even Windows. Locked up my home router last night using NMAP.

RE: Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or [7:54767]
Clearly, you cannot do DMZ scenarios, or get a real feel for multiple security levels. Also hot standby is not allowed. However, that said, it is completely compatible with the larger units' IOS, allowing you to use the current version and get hands-on feel for how it differs from the conventional IOS (and how it is evolving to minimize those differences, for that matter). It also supports VPN, the standard gui config tool and other goodies. It was enough for me. Another option might be the FrankenPIX, although I have never personally attempted that.

Re: Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Interface Blocked by [7:73474]
Piyush, the answer to your question is YES. you better implement this fix before your router gets attacked. the access list implementation consists in blocking protocols 53(swipe), 55 (IP Mobility), 77 (Sun ND), and 103 (PIM) from cloging up you interface queues. the advisory was pretty straight forward. >From: "Mr piyush shah" >Reply-To: "Mr piyush shah" >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Interface Blocked by IPv4 >[7:73470] >Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2003 11:50:57 GMT > >Dear all >Recently there was an article on Cisco Security >Advisory which stated that all Cisco routers/switches >having IOS as their operating system,their Interfaces >will be blocked by IPv4 Packets.In this regard,i have >a querry. >Is it that all the router having IOS will be blocked >or certain specific IOS ? >Also they have given fixes at the bottom of that >article which states about access-list,do one need to >go ahead with implementation of these Acess-lists? >Kindly help. >Thanks in advance. > > Piyush > > > > >Send free SMS using the Yahoo!

RE: Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS Interface Blocked by [7:73707]
The Advisory affects *ALL* routers and switches running IOS versions below 12.3 The access-lists are a work-around / stop-gap measure until you upgrade your IOS to a release that has a fix for the vulnerability. However, with what I have seen and heard over the last few weeks, use the access-lists and *don't* upgrade your IOS without proper planning. I have seen some overzealous network engineers crash their routers by loading the wrong IOS for the hardware(DRAM/Flash) they currently have.

Code Red impact on Cisco products - FW: [I] Cisco Security [7:13162]
I received this email from one of the SE's in Cisco's Calgary office. Code Red may impact certain Cisco products. Both Cisco and Microsoft are advertising a fix (details are included below). -Original Message- Most of you have probably seen the Code Red worm affecting Microsoft IIS. As some Cisco software uses Microsoft IIS for the underlying Operating System, please read the field alert to see if you are running the following Cisco products listed below. Please contact your local Cisco SE for help. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-code-red-worm-pub.shtml Cisco Security Advisory: "Code Red" Worm - Customer Impact Revision 1.0 For Public Release 2001 July 20 12:00 Summary A malicious self-replicating program known as the "Code Red" worm is targeted at systems running the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS). Several Cisco products are installed or provided on targeted systems. Additionally, the behavior of the worm can cause problems for other network devices. The following Cisco products are vulnerable because they run affected versions of Microsoft IIS: Cisco CallManager Cisco Unity Server Cisco uOne Cisco ICS7750 Other Cisco products may also be adversely affected by the "Code Red" worm. Please see the Affected Products section for further details. The worm and its effects may be remedied by applying the Microsoft patch to affected servers: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/ bulletin/MS01-033.asp. This advisory is available at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-code-red-worm-pub.shtml. Affected Products The following Cisco products are directly vulnerable because they run affected versions of Microsoft IIS: Cisco CallManager Cisco Unity Server Cisco uOne Cisco ICS7750 Cisco Building Broadband Service Manager Other Cisco products may be indirectly affected by the IIS vulnerability (this is not an exhaustive list): Cisco 600 series of DSL routers that have not been patched per the Cisco Security Advisory, http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/CBOS-multiple.shtml, will stop forwarding traffic when scanned by a system infected by the "Code Red" worm. The power must be cycled to restore normal service. Cisco Network Management products are not directly affected, but they might be installed on a Microsoft platform running a vulnerable version of IIS. Details The "Code Red" worm exploits a known vulnerability in Microsoft IIS by passing a specially crafted Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to the default HTTP service, port 80, on a susceptible system. The URI consists of binary instructions which cause the infected host to either begin scanning other random IP addresses and pass the infection on to any other vulnerable systems it finds, or launch a denial of service attack targeted at the IP address 198.137.240.91 which, until very recently, was assigned to www.whitehouse.gov. In both cases, the worm replaces the web server's default web page with a defaced page at the time of initial infection. The worm does not check for pre-existing infection, so that any given system may be executing as many copies of the worm as have scanned it, with a compounding effect on system and network demand. As a side-effect, the URI used by the worm to infect other hosts causes Cisco 600 series DSL routers to stop forwarding traffic by triggering a previously-published vulnerability. Any 600 series routers scanned by the "Code Red" worm will not resume normal service until the power to the router has been cycled. The nature of the "Code Red" worm's scan of random IP addresses and the resulting sharp increase in network traffic can noticeably affect Cisco Content Service Switches and Cisco routers running Cisco IOS software, depending on the device and its configuration. Unusually high CPU utilization and memory starvation may occur. Impact The "Code Red" worm is causing widespread denial of service on the Internet and is compromising large numbers of vulnerable systems. Once infected, the management of a Cisco CallManager product is disabled or severely limited until the defaced web page is removed and the original management web page is restored. Software Versions and Fixes Microsoft has made a patch available for affected systems at . Cisco is providing the same patch at http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/Software/Tablebuild/doftp.pl?ftpfile=cisco/voi ce/callmgr/win-IIS-SecurityUpdate-2.exe&swtype=FCS&code=&size=246296.

Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or not to [7:54756]
I am interested in pursuing the CSS1 designation. Can anyone tell me if this cert is a bear without the necessary training. There is a slight chance I may be able to get my employer to spring for the classes but I need to find out more before I start 'pulling teeth'. I have self-studied up to the CCNP level but I'm not sure I'll be able to get to all gear I need for this cert. Any input is appreciated. Thanks Eric CCNP __ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or not [7:54756]
I completed this by self-study, and a moderate lab (3 routers at the time, a couple of PCs and the PIX 501). This sufficed for all but the IDS exam. For that, I built a FrankenIDS machine and created a Cisco Security Policy Manager to experiment/practice with. This allowed me to get a feel for that technology, although I would not recommend trying that exam without some sort of lab work.

RE: Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or not to [7:54767]
I've heard on this list that a PIX 501 should be enough for the CSS1 cert because all you need are two interfaces to learn what is needed. I believe this is correct, but double-check the archives to make sure.
