Secure Firewall helps you plan and prioritize your approach to security, close gaps in your architecture, and recover from security breaches, stronger.

Environmental complexity, resource constraints, and a sophisticated threat landscape heighten the need for security tool convergence, indicates John Grady, Principal Analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). Standalone, detection-only security solutions are simply not enough to keep up.

What’s needed, instead, are fully integrated solutions that encompass detection, response, and remediation. But within this unrelenting tidal wave of unpredictable, creative, and aggressive threats, a core question arises: how do companies achieve this more connected ecosystem? 

Grady joins two industry experts from Cisco in this Fireside Chat to discuss this topic and provide an independent assessment of the benefits Cisco Secure Firewall brings to the table. Tune in for 3 essential takeaways and a Q&A on:
1. What roadblocks do teams run into when upgrading or adding firewalls?
2. How does Cisco Secure Firewall address emerging security challenges?
3. Real customer benefits & successes using Cisco Secure Firewall and networking solutions.

Cisco Secure Firewall: The foundation for secure, intelligent networks

Organizations always have the option of decrypting traffic to scan for threats, but certificate management can be a complex process when decryption is required across a distributed enterprise. 

Moreover, as the amount of encrypted traffic increases, attackers utilize it to stealthily deliver malware, obfuscate command and control traffic, and hide data exfiltration. According to ESG, 24% of recent survey respondents fell victim to an encrypted attack once; 45% did so multiple times.

The main takeaway from this context is this: your security teams need a multi-pronged approach for detecting encrypted threats. Tune into this custom Fireside Chat to glean best practices for detecting—and improving visibility into—these threats as told by ESG Analyst John Grady. You’ll also learn how: 
• Cisco Secure Firewall’s encrypted visibility engine uses AI/ML to block encrypted threats 
• Cisco’s 4200 series appliance accelerates TLS decryption without compromising performance

Defending Against Encrypted Threats

Learn key industry trends for securing applications and data; the evolution of traditional firewall into “firewalling”; and Cisco Secure Firewall’s Return on Investment of 195 percent.

The Total Economic Impact of Cisco Secure Firewall

ESG research indicates that 63% of employees now work remotely or in a hybrid manner, which means effectively and efficiently providing secure connectivity to remote workers and branches is a mainstay concern. 

Companies in this situation, too, are often bogged down with myriad point tools in use, resource and staffing constraints, and security gaps that allow attackers to move laterally with ease. 

However, with simpler branch routing from Cisco’s Secure Firewalls and Zero Trust Application Access, for instance, you can dissolve these pain points. 

Register for the following webcast to hear ESG Analyst John Grady’s perspective on VPN replacement and zero trust network access (ZTNA) adoption for remote sites and users. You’ll also gain insight from Cisco experts on how their solutions help organizations improve their security posture while promoting operational efficiency.
