    • Exam objectives covered in this chapter include Domain 4.0 Content Security:
      • Implement traffic redirection and capture methods
      • Describe web proxy identity and authentication, including transparent user identification
      • Compare the components, capabilities, and benefits of local and cloud-based email and web solutions (ESA, CES, WSA)
      • Configure and verify web and email security deployment methods
      • Configure and verify email security features such as SPAM filtering, anti-malware filtering, DLP, blacklisting, and email encryption
      • Configure and verify secure Internet gateway and web security features
    • "Do I Know This Already?" quiz assesses if the chapter should be read thoroughly or to jump to the "Exam Preparation Tasks" section
    • Table 10-1 maps major headings to quiz questions for quick review
    • AsyncOS is the underlying operating system for Cisco Secure Web Appliance, Cisco Secure Email, and Cisco SMA
    • AVC engine analyzes and categorizes unknown URLs, blocks websites, and determines risk levels
    • Deployment modes for Cisco Secure Web Appliance include transparent and explicit forward modes
    • Mail transfer agent (MTA), mail delivery agent (MDA), mail user agent (MUA), and mail submission agent (MSA) are components of email systems
    • Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) operates as the mail server
    • Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) components such as the Mail Delivery Agent (MDA) deliver emails to recipient mailboxes
    • Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) components such as the Mail Submission Agent (MSA) receive email messages from email clients
    • Mail User Agent (MUA) acts as the user's email client or reader
    • A secure web appliance can detect and stop threats in cloud applications by working with cloud access security brokers (CASBs)

    Cisco Secure Web Appliance

    • Appliance includes web proxy, threat analytics engine, anti-malware engine, policy management, and reporting
    • Protects users from malicious websites and malware
    • Organizations can restrict access to specific websites (e.g., for work)
    • Web Reputation Engine analyzes URLs, categorizes them, and blocks high-risk sites
    • Reputation scores range from -10 to +10
    • Supports typical web filtering
    • Provides application visibility and control (AVC) to inspect and block unauthorized applications
    • Supports antivirus scanning (e.g., McAfee, Sophos, Webroot)
    • Features file reputation (updated every 3-5 minutes)
    • Supports DLP to inspect web content and prevent data loss
    • Supports file sandboxing for analysis of suspicious files

    Cisco Secure Web Appliance Modes

    • Explicit forward mode: Client traffic is explicitly directed to the proxy, bypassing standard DNS resolution
    • Transparent mode: Client is unaware of the proxy, which handles requests transparently; often uses protocol like WCCP for traffic redirection

    Cisco Secure Web Appliance Interfaces

    • M1 (management): Used for managing the appliance
    • P1/P2 (data/proxy interfaces): Required when utilizing two interfaces for web proxy traffic on different subnets. Can be combined with M1 interface.
    • T1/T2 (Layer 4 traffic monitoring): Used for promiscuous monitoring of Layer 4 traffic (TCP and UDP). Either used separately or together.

    Cisco Secure Email

    • Deployed in various forms (physical, virtual, or cloud)
    • Acts as the email gateway, controlling all email connections
    • Uses SMTP for email transactions
    • Email components include MTA, MDA, MSA, MUA
