Re-Imagining Zero Trust With an In-Office Experience, Everywhere

Let’s be honest. Most people don’t trust zero trust. For users, when they hear the words ‘zero trust’, it sounds like it might take longer to log into work. And if you’re in IT or IT security, you may have more products to buy and integrate into your existing — already complicated — security stack. And of course, then there are the audits. Maybe that’s why so many zero trust projects are stalled. No matter…

Cisco Secure Access Accelerates SSE Innovation with AI, User Experience Monitoring, and Identity Intelligence

In a blog post last December, I said that the business and IT leaders with whom I meet always ask: How can I secure my highly distributed workforce, who gets more varied and decentralized all the time? How do I provide tight security without burdening them or impeding business?  That hasn’t changed. This still drives conversations early and often. Yet this is never in isolation.

Staying Connected and Protected in a Highly Distributed World with Cisco Secure Networking

We live in an increasingly digital world where the number of connections—driven by a highly distributed and diverse web of applications, devices, and users—continues to grow exponentially. This level of complexity increases as organizations rely more heavily on multicloud services, software-as-a-service (SaaS), and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS), with technologies like generative artificial intelligence (AI). There are billions of interdependencies that can suffer outages or other degradation, touchpoints that bad actors can exploit, and many more things to…
