Security Problems of Open Networks
Critical data at risk
As Access Increases
Sensitive information,
mission-critical network
Mobile and remote
devices and users
Unmanaged or
ill-managed endpoints
Network can become
unreliable
Perimeter security
ineffective
Endpoint infections
may proliferate
Network Security Decreases

Sample Network Access Control Policy
To Access the Production Network...
1. User Must Be Authenticated
•
With Identity Management System
2. Endpoint Must Be Healthy
•
•
•
•
Anti-Virus software running and properly configured
Recent scan shows no malware
Personal Firewall running and properly configured
Patches up-to-date
3. Behavior Must Be Acceptable
•
No port scanning, sending spam

State of Network Access Control
 Many products and open source implementations
 Several approaches
•
•
•
•
•
MAC registration – accountability
Identity – block unauthorized users
Endpoint health – detect and fix unhealthy endpoints
Behavior – track and block unauthorized behavior
Combination of the above
 Convergence on one architecture and standards
• TNC = Trusted Network Connect

Foiling Root Kits with TPM and TNC
 Solves the critical “lying endpoint problem”
• User or rootkit causes endpoint to lie about health
 TPM Measures Software in Boot Sequence
• Hash software into PCR before running it
• PCR value cannot be reset except via hard reboot
 During TNC Handshake...
•
•
•
•
PTS-IMV engages in crypto handshake with TPM
TPM securely sends PCR value to PTS-IMV
PTS-IMV compares to good configs
If not listed, endpoint is quarantined and remediated

Why TNC?
 Open standards
• Supports multi-vendor compatibility
• Enables customer choice
• Allows open technical review for better security
 Supports Existing Networks
• wired and wireless, 802.1X and non-802.1X, firewalls,
IPsec and SSL VPNs, dialup, etc.
 Supports Optional Trusted Platform Module
• Basis for trusted endpoint
• Solves critical problem with existing products: root kits

TNC/NAP Interoperability
IF-TNCCS-SOH
NAP or TNC
Client
Switches, APs, Appliances, Servers, etc.
NAP or TNC
Server
 IF-TNCCS-SOH Standard Enables Client-Server Interoperability between NAP and TNC
• NAP servers can health check TNC clients without extra software
• NAP clients can be health checked by TNC servers without extra software
• As long as all parties implement the open IF-TNCCS-SOH standard
 Availability
• Built into Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows XP SP 3
• Unix clients shipping from Avenda Systems and UNETsystem
• Other TNC vendors planning to ship support in 1H 2008
 Implications
• Finally, an agreed-upon open standard client-server NAC protocol
• True client-server interoperability (like web browsers and servers) is here
• Industry (except Cisco) has agreed on TNC standards for NAC

IETF and TNC
 IETF NEA WG
• Goal: Universal Agreement on NAC Protocols
• Co-Chaired by Cisco rep and TNC-WG Chair
• Adopted TNC specs as WG drafts
• PA-TNC and PB-TNC
• Equivalent to IF-M 1.0 and IF-TNCCS 2.0
• Cisco Engineer will Co-Edit

(FHH)
• http://tnc.inform.fh-hannover.de
• libtnc
• https://sourceforge.net/projects/libtnc
• OpenSEA 802.1X supplicant
• http://www.openseaalliance.org
• FreeRADIUS
• http://www.freeradius.org
 TCG support for these efforts
• Free Liaison Memberships

Moving Beyond NAC – Future Vision
 Trusted Devices
• Trusted hardware and secure software provide trustworthy clients
 Access Control
• Secure and reliable access to any service from any device across
any network (in accordance with policy)
 Coordinated Security
• Security systems cooperate through open standards to provide
strong, autonomic, and efficient security at lower cost and
complexity
 Policy
• Security policies defined in business terms apply across all
security systems
• Good tools for defining and analyzing policies

TCG – Working Toward The Future
 Trusted Devices
• TPM – open standards for trusted hardware
• TSS and PTS – open standards for secure software (not enough)
 Access Control
• TNC – working on broader access control standards
 Coordinated Security
• New IF-MAP standard addresses this directly (see next slide)
 Policy
• Important area for future work

IF-MAP – Problems to Be Solved
 Manage unresponsive endpoints
• Printers, phones, other embedded devices
• Guest, student, and other systems with no NAC
capability
 Monitor endpoint behavior
• Detect and respond to unacceptable use
 Integrate Security Systems
• Enable coordinated and automatic response
• Share information to improve security

IF-MAP Use Cases
 PDP publishes info on new user & device to IF-MAP server
• IDS and NBAD use this info to adjust their settings (e.g. P2P allowed)
• Flow controller (e.g. interior firewall) uses info to adjust access controls
• PDP and flow controller subscribe to updates on user or device
 IDS publishes event to an IF-MAP server
• Device X is attacking device Y
• PDP and/or flow controller receive notification of event
• They can respond by quarantining device X, warning user, etc.
 PDP detects new unknown clientless device Z
• PDP posts info to IF-MAP server, subscribes to updates
• DHCP server, endpoint profiler, etc. publish info on device
• PDP receives notification, grants appropriate access

• Fewer false alarms since policies are tuned
 Reduced deployment and operating complexity
• Standards based integration
• Automated responses
 Stronger security
•
•
•
•
Responses to both managed and unmanaged endpoints
Management of the complete lifecycle of a network endpoint
Coordinated response across many products
Policies tuned per user or group
