This is the definitive, up-to-date practitioner's guide to planning, deploying, and troubleshooting comprehensive security plans with Cisco ASA. 

Written by two experienced Cisco Security and VPN Solutions consultants who work closely with customers to solve security problems every day, the book brings together valuable insights and real-world deployment examples for both large and small network environments. Jazib Frahim and Omar Santos begin by introducing the newest ASA Firewall Solution and its capabilities.

Next, they walk through configuring and troubleshooting both site-to-site and remote access VPNs, and implementing Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) features supported by the ASA's Advanced Inspection and Prevention Security Services Module (AIP-SSM).
