ASA hardening

[hank]

I am looking for a document on ASA hardening/tuning/locking-down.

Sort of a template similar in style to the Secure IOS template that can be found here:

Much thanks,

Hank

Hi Sandeep

Thanks for putting the link out there. I looked through Cisco Polices and Processes, and it didn't show the Firewall Best Practices. (https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/securityResources.x)

Do you know if there is an extended library somewhere on cisco.com, with more best practices? I only know of CVD documents for specific technologies.

Thanks
