But that’s not to say Cisco has been sitting still by any means. The company has expanded and refreshed its core Catalyst, Nexus and Silicon One networking gear and…

Much has been written about the convergence of security and networking. Often the focus is on one side or the other. Networks need to be more secure. And security needs to take the network into account. But what’s often ignored is that the convergence of security and networking is driven by the needs of a hybrid and distributed workforce. And networks and security need to evolve—and converge—to meet those needs. Case in point: because of…

As a second-generation Cisconian, I grew up watching my dad work from home for the past 20 years. This work-life balance and flexibility, for the longest time, has been part of Cisco’s DNA.

Insights from Cisco VP/GM of Zero Trust and Duo, Ash Devata  I recently had a conversation with Cisco’s VP/GM of Zero Trust and Duo, Ash Devata, who knows more than a thing or two about zero trust. Ash joined Cisco in 2018 via Cisco’s acquisition of Duo Security. Duo is the leading provider of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and zero trust for the workforce, combining security expertise with a user-centered philosophy to provide two-factor authentication, endpoint remediation and secure single sign-on tools for the modern era. Prior to Cisco’s Duo acquisition, Ash led Duo’s Product Management, Product Marketing, Technology Partnerships, and Advisory…
