Cisco SecureX will be included in all Cisco Security products to simplify and improve the user experience.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cisco Live Digital \u2014<\/strong>\u00a0Cisco, a company specializing in enterprise security, announced that it will make Cisco SecureX, the most comprehensive and integrated cloud-based cybersecurity platform, available worldwide starting June 30, 2020, across all Cisco Security products to simplify and improve how customers manage their security. SecureX emerges at a time when organizations are juggling administrative and security challenges on an unprecedented scale, driven by the acceleration of Digital Transformation and the growing number of people working remotely. Cisco has long been committed to connecting and protecting its customers, regardless of where and on what device they work, and continues its mission to unify and optimize its security portfolio.<\/p>\n Managing an organization's security is a complex task.<\/strong>\u00a0It involves keeping up with new company processes, tracking ongoing threats, and navigating diverse environments from various vendors. Data obtained from CEOs corroborates this reality. According to the CIO Perspectives 2020 survey, conducted by Cisco with 1,300 global CIOs, the two biggest challenges they face are security and complexity, in that order. More than two-thirds of CIOs feel they are at their breaking point. Vendor consolidation is one way to combat this complexity that security leaders are encountering. Data recently released by Cisco in the 2020 CISO Benchmark Report revealed that, when dealing with a cyberattack, organizations with more security vendors experienced longer downtime, higher costs, and more data breaches.<\/p>\n To address current and future security challenges, SecureX connects Cisco's complete integrated security portfolio with customers' entire security infrastructure, resulting in a consistent and simplified experience. It unifies visibility, enables automation, and strengthens end-to-end security, including network, devices, cloud, and applications. With SecureX, all customers, current and new, will benefit from these and other features at no additional cost.<\/p>\n Unified visibility \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0SecureX provides crucial threat and operational metrics related to networks, devices, cloud, and applications. With SecureX APIs, the platform is integrated into each and every Cisco Security technology, giving customers full access to the platform's capabilities across all products.<\/p>\n Automation to increase operational efficiency \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0Customers can automate workflows across all Cisco Security and third-party products, allowing them to focus their efforts on more relevant tasks. SecureX can save hours of manual work by automating the investigation process with threat intelligence from Cisco Talos and other sources.<\/p>\n Enhanced security \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0SecureX's threat response system enables security experts to quickly identify impacted targets and remediate threats in minutes by correlating intelligence data from multiple information sources with network, device, email, cloud, and third-party product telemetry.<\/p>\n Since SecureX was launched, the response from customers and partners has been exceptional: \u201cOne of the most important aspects for me, as CISO, is ensuring I provide intelligence to other departments,\u201d says Mick Jenkins, Executive Director of Information Security at Brunel University. \u201cThe platform approach gives us excellent, magnificent coordination of forensic investigations.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHarmonized network security and a collaborative platform are essential for all teams to be able to work together to solve a problem. You become more vulnerable when you have silos,\u201d says Collin John, Global Security Manager at Alvarez & Marsal. \u201cThis platform unifies visibility and leverages DevOps, SecOps, and even infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe are seeing our customers consolidating a variety of security vendors they work with and wanting solutions that are simple to manage and integrate with their existing security investments. Cisco has built a broad and strong portfolio of security solutions, and with Cisco SecureX, it\u2019s now easier to demonstrate the value of multiple products working together,\u201d says Bob Cagnazzi, CEO of Presidio. \u201cWe are also excited about the opportunity this creates for Presidio to add services based on the SecureX platform and further enhance our customers\u201d experience.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWith SecureX, we seek to reimagine our customers\u201d security experience, making it simple and automated,\u201c explains Gee Rittenhouse, senior vice president and general manager of Cisco\u2019s Security Business group. \u201dWe knew this would be transformative for the market, but we could never have predicted how important it would be for security and IT professionals right now. In this new and dynamic world, customers need a security platform that can protect employees wherever they work and that addresses current and future challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to the simplified experience that SecureX provides, Cisco Security is also launching new enhancements and integrations to further protect the remote workforce, including:<\/p>\n Enhanced unified protection for users and devices, with integration between endpoint security and MFA. <\/p>\n SOURCE:<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>\u201cThe approach of a platform like SecureX is the future of security at Mohawk Industries,\u201d says Michael Degroote, Infrastructure Consultant at Mohawk Industries. \u201cIt will make things easier and faster, and we will see far more change than ever before in our environment. The automation and customization playbooks we\u2019ve seen in SecureX will make a difference in a zero-trust environment and further improve security across our company. We are excited about what SecureX will bring us.\u201d<\/p>\n
