CAM & CAS Licensing

CCA is licensed in two manners:

CAM Licensing
The CAM is licensed on the basis of how many CASs it can manage.
1 CAS Failover Bundle = 1 Server Count
CAM comes in 3 Flavors: Lite(manages up to 3 Servers), Standard(manages up to 20 Servers), & Super(manages up to 40 Servers)

CAS Licensing
The CAS is licensed on the basis of how many users are logged in. The easiest way to understand this is to think about how many Online Users show up int the IB/OOB OU List. The only caveat to this is that if you are using Device Filters that are marked as "Check" you need to include them in the CAS User Count.
CAS comes in many flavors ranging from 100 users to 2500 users

Cisco Zero Trust Architecture

As a follow up to the previous post around Zero Trust Architecture , Cisco has been delivering zero trust architectures for customers for many years. With the platform approach provided by Cisco Zero Trust organizations gain better visibility across users, devices, containers, networks, and applications, verifying their security states with every access request. Adopting this model provides a balance between security and usability. Security teams can make it harder for attackers to collect what they need (user credentials, network access, and the ability to move laterally), and users can get a consistent and more productive security experience, regardless of where they’re located, what endpoints they’re using, or whether their applications are on-premises or in the cloud. Cisco Zero Trust provides a comprehensive approach to securing all access across applications and environment, from any user, device and location. It protects the workforce , workloads and workplac...

Intrusion Prevention Best Practice - IPS Placement

Background In today's organizations, attacks come from everywhere. As cliche as it sounds, networks are borderless and because of this organizations face more sophisticated threats. As networks evolve, many organizations struggle to have intrusion prevention or other security architecture evolve at the same pace. Visibility is everything: you must be able to detect and respond to threats before they cause significant damage. The following entry is all about how to gain visibility at the different areas of the network. IPS Overview Wikipedia defines Intusion Prevention Systems as a "network security appliance that monitor network and/or system activities for malicious activity. The main functions of intrusion prevention systems are to identify malicious activity, log information about said activity, attempt to block/stop activity, and report activity." By deploying IPS, organizations are able to identify, classify, and stop malicious traffic, including worms, spyware ...
