NANOG Meeting Presentation Abstract

Tutorial: L2 Attacks & Mitigation Techniques
Meeting:	NANOG42
Date / Time:	2008-02-17 2:00pm - 3:30pm
Room:	Gold Room, B Level
Presenters:	Speakers: Yusuf Bhaiji, Cisco Systems Yusuf Bhaiji, CCIE #9305 (R&S and Security), has been with Cisco Systems for 7 years and is currently the Program Manager for the Cisco CCIE Security Certification and CCIE Proctor in Cisco Dubai Lab. Yusuf\'s passion for Security technologies and solutions has played dominant role in his 17 years of industry experience, from as far back as his initial Masters Degree in Computer Science, and since reflected in his numerous certifications. Yusuf is advisory board member of several non-profit organizations for the dissemination of technologies and promoting indigenous excellence in the field of internetworking. Yusuf has authored two Cisco Press publications and written several articles, white papers, and presentations on various security technologies. He is a frequent lecturer and well-known speaker presenting in several Conferences and Seminars worldwide.
Abstract:	Layer 2 Attacks and Mitigation Techniques session focuses on the security issues surrounding Layer 2, the data-link layer. With a significant percentage of network attacks originating inside the corporate firewall, exploring this soft underbelly of data networking is critical for any secure network design. Security issues addressed in this session include ARP spoofing, MAC flooding, VLAN hopping, DHCP attacks, and Spanning Tree Protocol concerns. Common myths about Ethernet switch security are confirmed or debunked, and specific security lockdown recommendations are given. Attack mitigation options include the new DHCP snooping and Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI) functionality. Attendees can expect to learn Layer 2 design considerations from a security perspective and mitigation techniques for Layer 2 attacks. This session is for network designers, administrators, and engineers in all areas of data networking.
