Cisco Security Manager 3.01 [Cisco Security Manager]

Product Bulletin No. 3215

Cisco Systems® announces the availability of Cisco® Security Manager 3.01

Cisco Security Manager is part of the Cisco Security Management Suite, which delivers comprehensive policy administration and enforcement for the Cisco Self-Defending Network. The suite also includes the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (Cisco Security MARS), which can be purchased separately. Unlike point security products from multiple vendors, which often do not work together and can leave vulnerable gaps, the Cisco Security Management Suite provides a comprehensive solution for provisioning, monitoring, and mitigation to keep networks safer, more resilient, and easier to operate.

Cisco Security Manager is an industry-leading enterprise-class application for managing security. Cisco Security Manager addresses configuration management of firewall, VPN, and intrusion prevention system (IPS) security services across Cisco routers, security appliances, and security services modules. For a summary of Cisco Security Manager features and benefits, refer to the Cisco Security Manager 3.01 data sheet at http://www.cisco.com/go/csmanager.

• Cisco Security Manager Enterprise Edition (Standard-5)

Migration Options from CiscoWorks VPN/Security Management Solution

Cisco is not adding support for new features and new devices in CiscoWorks VPN/Security Management Solution (CiscoWorks VMS) after the release of Cisco Security Manager. Furthermore, support for devices such as Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliances is only be available with Cisco Security Manager. Customers that require provisioning for Cisco firewalls, VPNs, and IPSs will want to plan their migration to take advantage of significant enhancements in the new software.

Customers with a current Cisco Software Application Support (SAS) service or Software Application Support plus Upgrades (SASU) service for CiscoWorks VMS are entitled to a defined device license for Cisco Security Manager at no additional charge. The value of the new license is higher than the cost of the original CiscoWorks VMS purchase. Customers with a current CiscoWorks VMS Basic license that have a Cisco SMARTnet® contract, or a Cisco Services for IPS contract with selected IPS hardware, can also upgrade to Cisco Security Manager. See Tables 2 to 4 for the upgrade licenses that can be requested at no additional cost from http://www.cisco.com/upgrade. The appropriate upgrade option will be visible on the Website if you have an eligible service contract with an existing CiscoWorks VMS license.

Note: All no charge and discounted offers to upgrade from CiscoWorks VMS to Cisco Security Manager will be discontinued after April 2, 2007.

• If provisioning for Cisco firewalls, VPNs, and network IPSs is also required, install Cisco Security Manager on a separate server. The Management Center for Cisco Security Agent software cannot coexist on the same server.

• Cisco Security Manager does not include security monitoring.

More product details can be found at http://www.cisco.com/go/mars. Customers may also consider the Cisco IPS Event Viewer tool, which is provided at no additional cost. The Cisco IPS Event Viewer will monitor up to five Cisco IPS devices. The software is easy to set up and use.
