Cisco MARS

The Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (Cisco Security MARS) is an appliance-based, all-inclusive solution that provides superior insight into and control of your existing security deployment. Part of Cisco's security management lifecycle, Cisco Security MARS empowers your security and network organizations to identify, manage, and counter security threats. It works with your existing network and security investments to identify, isolate, and recommend precise removal of offending elements. It also helps maintain internal policy compliance and can be an integral part of your overall regulatory compliance solution

Other features and benefits of Cisco Security MARS:

• "Learns" the topology, configuration and behaviour of your environment
• Automatically updates knowledge of new Cisco IPS signatures, for up to the minute reporting on your environment
• Promotes awareness of environmental anomalies with network behaviour analysis using NetFlow and syslog
• Provides simple access to audit compliance reports with more than 150 ready-to-use customisable reports
• Makes precise recommendations for threat mitigation, including the ability to visualise the attack path and identify the source of the threat with detailed topological graphs that simplify security response at Layer 2 and Layer 3
• Integrates with the Cisco Security Manager to correlate security events with the configured firewall rules and intrusion prevention system (IPS) signatures that can affect the security event.
