In addition, the potential for online transactions and e-commerce will be realized only when a secure network infrastructure is in place and can be relied upon. As larger volumes of information are exchanged and as financial transactions begin to be conducted over these networks, a great deal needs to be secured. The loss of assets such as confidential company data is an obvious area of concern and needs protection with the help of technologies like RSM based firewall. For the purposes of security on networks of computers or computing devices, security can be defined more specifically by three basic concepts. These basic concepts transcend all the technologies, applications, and implementations related to network security and manifest themselves as corporate security policy.
Security is an area of extreme importance to corporate users.
Given the wide range of requirements, technologies, and implementations, as well as the ever changing nature of the complete security landscape on the Internet, enterprise network managers must implement a flexible but encompassing security infrastructure. Cisco Secure Integrated Software not only helps in designing a comprehensive security policy in protecting the valuable internal resources but can respond to the threats in real time. The major benefits of including firewall feature set in RSM entails the flexibility and robustness of the existing IOS feature sets along with the investment protection for the hardware. Cisco IOS Firewall as a software solution is ideal with its robust security features, low footprint requirement, and cost effectiveness. Intranet Security with Policy Enforcement Provides security infrastructure for enforcing a Enterprise-wide security policy for connections within an organization as well as between the organization and the rest of the corporate network.
