ABSTRACT:
A network intrusion prevention solution typically consists of multiple sensors. Sensor placement within a network can greatly aid or hinder network security. This document gives general recommendations on sensor placement in a typical network. As each enterprise operates differently, there is no single optimal approach.
Nokia Intrusion Prevention Solution consists of Sourcefire Intrusion Sensor for Nokia, Sourcefire Real-Time Network Awareness (RNA) Sensor for Nokia and Sourcefire Defense Center for Nokia. Intrusion Sensors provide threat intelligence and RNA Sensors provide network/end-point intelligence. Defense Center provides enhanced security by combining information from Intrusion Sensors and RNA Sensors.
Intrusion and RNA Sensor location within a network directly affects the value of the information provided to the Defense Center.
