Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE)
So the identity service engine is the NAC, network access control, and we configure it to make sure that unauthorized people cannot get into the network, whether it's wireless or wired connections.
Pros
- I'm happy with the dynamic. The Dynamic Access Control Lists where we have multiple departments, people, or users from different departments. Whenever they plug their laptops in different sockets, they still get the same correct VLAN. And this is one of the features that we heavily use. So people can roam into the building and if I work for HR, for example, I plug in my laptop, I still be part of the HR VLAN for security.
Cons
- I would say with the logging, I'm not happy with the logging, right? It's not clear. And sending also the logs to a central SIEM box is not quite easy. I faced all those issues with the logging. The logging of the box is not that good.
- Well, definitely securing the network, which is part of my job, and making sure that unauthorized personnel don't access unauthorized data. So definitely this is something that we work on hard.
I've always used the Cisco ISE. I can't remember using other products.
