- Abstract
- This document will be an overview to " Cisco SAFE: "A Security Blueprint for Enterprise Networks" (Convery). The purpose of Cisco SAFE is to give network designers a guide to designing and implementing secure networks. SAFE assumes you have a security policy in place and does not recommend deploying security technologies without such a policy. While SAFE is a guide for Enterprise networks, its information can certainly be used for smaller networks. Remember there are no hard and fast rules, not all the recommendations in SAFE are viable options for all networks. Depending on your budget constraints, personnel, geographic location, etc. you may need to make changes accordingly.
