Wenceslao Lada, VP & Americas GM and Andre Kindness, both from ProCurve Networking by HP join the Lippis Report podcast to announce major product and organizational additions to their ProActive Defense strategy. ProActive defense claims to deliver a trusted network infrastructure that is immune to threats,

controllable for appropriate use and able to protect data and integrity for users. This podcast dives into the technical aspects of the ProCurve announcement. We address NAC, NAP, supplicants and more. Listen in as the internal network security market just changed.

This white paper addresses the concept of Network Access Control (NAC), which provides organizations with the ability to control access to networks and the information available on those networks. It also describes the access control solution provided by ProCurve Networking by HP. ProCurve Networking is dedicated to providing networking solutions that enable organizations to increase productivity, fortify security, and reduce complexity.

ProCurve Network Immunity Manager is a plug-in module for ProCurve Manager Plus that provides a rich toolset to manage internal network threat detection and response. Together, ProCurve Manager Plus and the Network Immunity Manager plug-in constitute the ProCurve Network Immunity Solution. ProCurve Network Immunity Manager monitors access points and switch ports vs. sFlow and Virus Throttle across the network for internal network threats and allows administrators to set detection and response security policies. ProCurve Network Immunity Manager performs NBAD (Network Behavior Anomaly Detection) to detect and respond to internal threats in both wired and wireless networks.

ProCurve Networking by HP has an infrastructure-based NAC approach that is far simpler to configure, administer and acquire than other solutions in the industry. ProCurve leverages 802.1x clients and identity management to provide identity driven access control. They have development hooks into NAP/NPS which will provide integration with Microsoft in the late 2007/2008 time frame. To explain ProCurve´s ProActive Defense strategy, we offer a video of Paul Congdon, Chief Technology Officer and HP Fellow from ProCurve Networking by HP.

Traditional core-centric network architectures are not up to the task for today´s more frequent and potentially destructive assaults and challenges. These networks lack the scalability and dynamic capabilities required to handle current network security needs or meet rapidly changing business and technological requirements. This paper describes a better alternative for network security: a comprehensive security vision and strategy that arises directly from the revolutionary ProCurve Adaptive EDGE Architecture® (AEA), which embraces distributed intelligence at the network edge and takes a holistic approach to networking. The new security vision, called ProCurve ProActive Defense, is the first approach that combines proactive security offense techniques with steadfast traditional defense security techniques, simultaneously, at the edge of the network where users connect. As such, ProCurve ProActive Defense is expected to dramatically change how network security is deployed from now on. To find out how, download this paper.

In establishing their information technology (IT) networks, companies have traditionally focused on the connection between user devices and the corporate infrastructure, ignoring the unique needs of individuals and groups using the network. Not only does this emphasis hinder workforce productivity, it also creates problems for network security, management and performance.

A new strategy is to implement identity driven management (IDM) functionality that is able to automatically configure the network edge through security and performance policies defined on a centrally administered management server. These IDM solutions facilitate business-driven networks that behave uniquely and appropriately for every user. This paper describes traditional network access management strategies and defines ProCurve Networking by ProCurve´s approach to a new, identity driven methodology. It also highlights the benefits that can be attained by deploying ProCurve IDM solutions.
