Throughout your security journey,
as you are learning about hardening
your entire infrastructure, you've
been focusing on the network, right?
And that's a great thing to do.
We need to be able to harden our focus on the network.
That way, we don't have any gaps in layer two technologies.
We don't have any gaps as traffic
goes over the WAN links.
We want to make sure that things are encrypted and secure
and there's the principle of least privilege
applied everywhere.
But what is one thing that we haven't talked enough about up
until this point? WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
until this point?
That's our endpoints themselves, the devices
and the people that connect to our network.
These are our servers.
These are our desktops.
Or these are bring-your-own devices
like tablets or cell phones.
These are going to be ways that hackers can get in
because we've already talked about things
like social engineering and phishing.
A hacker can get in because somebody clicks
on an email or a link.
And then they get in through that endpoint.
So it's going to be critical for us to understand
how to harden and secure the endpoints too WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
how to harden and secure the endpoints too
on top of the network.
We're really talking about data in transit versus data at rest.
That's kind of a big deal.
And this is where we set up how to protect
our endpoints particularly with the Cisco AMP product.
Get ready.
In this skill, we're going to be talking about what it means
and why we should secure our endpoints, as well as the Cisco
AMP for Endpoints product.
Let's get going.
