Cisco News, Friday, September 8,2023
It's been a minute since my last update on our network security strategy, but we have been busy building some awesome capabilities to enable true new-normal firewalling. As we release Secure Firewall 4200 Series appliances and Threat Defense 7.4 software, let me bring you up to speed on how Cisco Secure elevates to protect your users, networks, and applications like never before.
Secure Firewall leverages inference-based traffic classification and cooperation across the broader Cisco portfoliowhich continues to resonate with cybersecurity practitioners. The reality of hybrid work remains a challenge to the insertion of traditional network security controls between roaming users and multi-cloud applications. The lack of visibility and blocking from a 95% encrypted traffic profileis a painful problem that hits more and more organizations; a few lucky ones get in front of it before the damage is done. Both network and cybersecurity operations teams look to consolidate multiple point products, reduce noise, and do more with less; Cisco Secure Firewall and Workload portfolio masterfully navigates all aspects of network insertion and threat visibility.
