Cisco Secure IPS

Visibility

With Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center, you can see more contextual data from your network and fine-tune your security. View applications, signs of compromise, host profiles, file trajectory, sandboxing, vulnerability information, and device-level OS visibility. Use these data inputs to optimize security through policy recommendations or Snort customizations.

Efficacy

Secure IPS receives new policy rules and signatures every two hours, so your security is always up to date. Cisco Talos leverages the world’s largest threat detection network to bring security effectiveness to every Cisco security product. This industry-leading threat intelligence works as an early-warning system that constantly updates with new threats.

Operational cost

Use Secure IPS automation to increase operational efficiency and reduce overhead by separating actionable events from noise. Prioritize threats for your staff and improve your security through policy recommendations based on network vulnerabilities. Stay informed on what rules to activate and deactivate, and filter events pertinent for the devices on your network.

Flexibility

Secure IPS flexible deployment options meet the needs of the enterprise. It can be deployed at the perimeter, at the data center distribution/core, or behind the firewall to protect mission-critical assets, guest access, and WAN connections. Secure IPS can be deployed for inline inspection or passive detection.

Integration

Secure IPS plugs into your network without major hardware changes or significant time to implement. Enable and manage several security applications from a single pane with Firewall Management Center. Seamlessly navigate between Secure IPS, Secure Firewall and Secure Endpoint to optimize your security and ingest third-party data through Cisco Threat Intelligence Director.
