Today’s agenda • Why take a multi-layered approach? • Example multi-layer security architecture • Multi-layer application delivery controller security • Multi-layer SSL VPN security • About Array Networks Solutions • iSECURE & Array Networks Customer Reference • Q&A
Why a multi-layer approach? • A proven model for keepings things out and keeping things in • Banks, maximum security, fortifications, etc. • Delivers multiple advantages as a network security strategy… • Exponential increase in security– One attack vector or vulnerability may be intentionally or unintentionally compromised without exposing the network or compromising data • Early warning– In the event applications, networks or devices are attacked, multi-layer security stalls malicious activity and provides time for shoring up defenses • Scalable security – A first line of defense significantly reduces the burden on deeper-level inspection functions, enabling security that doesn’t compromise performance
Why a multi-layer approach? (cont.) • Encryption creates the need for at least two levels of security • SSL (HTTPS) traffic passes directly through traditional firewalls, bypassing rules, policies and inspection • SSL traffic on the rise, used for both remote and mobile access and for an ever increasing number of Web sites and applications SSL
Why a multi-layer approach? • Heartbleed • HTTPS sessions connect to servers, load balancers or ADCs • Understanding how products and vendors use OpenSSL is key to reducing exposure to Heartbleed and future vulnerabilities
Why a multi-layer approach? • Security Challenges Changing the way we view Network Access • Employees using personal devices present new challenges • Layer 3 is Not practical and presents network security challenges • Most users do not need full access to the network • Newer Access Gateways provides Multiple Access Methods • Limit Direct Network Access and Direct Access to Applications…
Multi-layer security architecture (cont.) • Firewall perimeter security • The first line of defense, rules-based network level packet filtering; no visibility to SSL • SSL termination and traffic inspection • Traffic from secure applications are terminated on ADCs, decrypted and inspected traffic may be sent to servers or to advanced security appliances for further inspection • Traffic from remote access users are terminated on SSL VPNs, decrypted and inspected traffic may be sent to servers or to advanced security appliances • Advanced security appliances • Further inspection of smaller volume of pre-screened traffic

Multi-layer security architecture (cont.) • Layer-3 stateful packet filtering • Per-customer interface (VLAN/MNET), ingress packet filtering (source/destination IP, port, protocol), 1000 ACLs, packet deny/drop log, dynamic access list, permit-only network access • Layer-4 TCP stateful inspection • TCP stateful inspection, L4 packet sanitization, reverse proxy (client packet does not touch server), syn-cookie protection against TCP syn floods and DOS attacks • Layer-7 content filtering, WAF & DDoS • URL filtering, configurable access control (limit connections per port to prevent DDoS attack), application session control, HTTP protocol validation and policy filtering, attack signature filtering, input validation, XSS prevention, virtual patching
Multi-layer security architecture (cont.) • Security • SSL encryption, WAF, Web proxy • Application-level data protection • Acceleration • SSL offloading, compression, caching, traffic shaping, etc. • 10x better server efficiency and application performance • High availability • Server load balancing, GSLB, link load balancing • 24/7 application uptime External Users Storage InternalUsers ApplicationServers

SSL VPN multi-layer security • End-point security • Scan for personal firewalls, anti-virus software, browsers, operating systems, service packs, patches – apply adaptable remediation options for non-compliant clients • Advanced authentication, authorization and auditing • LDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, RADIUS, RSA SecurID, LocalDB, SSL client certificates, multi-factor authentication including RSA, Duo, Swivel, Syferlock and others • Deep packet inspection and WRM • Buffer overflow protection, syn-flood protection, URL filtering, configurable access control (limit connections per port to prevent DDoS attack), Web resource mapping with payload inspection and HTTP NATing
Security-hardened OS and platform • Only exposes service ports – no backdoors • Secured network management – SSL and HTTPS • Explicit disallows Telnet due to security risk of account/password sniffing • Tested and hardened against a range of network attacks • Hacking tools from eEye (ncx.exe, iishack.exe) • Nessus scan • NMAP • Filters malformed packets such as Smurf attach and local broadcast attacks • High-availability and cluster capability
Proprietary secured SSL stack • Used for all production traffic, proven immune to Heartbleed, Bash, Shellshock and other recent vulnerabilities • Customers did not need to patch or remediate any Array products • Bought time for remediation and patching of backend servers asnecessary • Delivers both better security and higher levels of performance • Pared-back, buttoned-down design runs faster and presents fewer attack vectors • Cannot guarantee 100% immune for all potential vulnerabilities, but has proven provide a higher level of security and immunity vs. OpenSSL
Array multi-layer security protects against… Tear Drop Attack • DoS (Deny Of Service) • Security Exploitation (Port scan) High Bit Shellcode Protection • Cross Site Scripting Buffer Overflow Attack Unreachable Host Attack Land Attack • Back Doors • Web Exploitation& Defacing Ping Attack • Code Red • Flash Events Directory Traversal Attack • SQL Injection • Heartbleed Parser Evasion Attacks SynFlood Attack • Impersonation & Breach of Privacy
