Cisco Cisco Identity Services Engine 1.0.4 Guía De Introducción
At-a-Glance
Gain Early Insight into Botnet Threats and Contain Them
If you can’t see what’s happening on your network, how can you
protect it? Cisco® Identity Services Engine (ISE) provides a wealth
of user identity, endpoint device, and network context information
used by many IT management and security platforms. To bring greater
insight to risky network user activities and take mitigation actions on
those events, Cisco ISE uses Cisco Platform Exchange Grid (pxGrid)
technology to share this contextual data with Infoblox, a Cisco partner
with premier solutions for DNS, DHCP and IP address management
(DDI) and DNS-based botnet detection.

For Infoblox DDI deployments, integration with ISE simplifies and
expedites association of an IP address ― in real time or in the past ― with a
specific user. This simplifies the often time-consuming task of answering
legal or human resources questions regarding which user held a specific
IP address at a specific point in time. ISE user identity information is also
integrated in Infoblox Network Insight monitoring and reporting to give
IPAM administrators easy real-time and historical access to user-to-IP
associations for standard network planning and reporting.

For the Infoblox DNS Firewall platform, integration with ISE also
associates user identity and network-privilege level with IP addresses
to aid in early detection and response to botnet activity. The Infoblox
DNS Firewall analyzes domain name resolution behavior to identify
botnet command-and-control servers. Once they’re identified, the DNS
Firewall also identifies what internal endpoints are currently accessing
or have accessed these command-and-control servers and which
ones have potentially been infected by the botnet. If an infection has
occurred, the user identity and network-privilege level from Cisco ISE
are used by Infoblox to help determine which clients are the highest
priority for potential malware remediation.
