Cisco Secure Firewall: Extend Your Network Security

In today's dynamic environment, where business-critical applications are a mix of cloud and on-premise solutions and users need secure access from anywhere, the traditional firewall approach is no longer sufficient. Our single network perimeter has evolved into multiple micro-perimeters. For many organizations, the application itself has become the new perimeter. Traditional firewall deployments have transitioned into a combination of physical, virtual, and cloud-native appliances. As a result, organizations face challenges in maintaining consistent visibility, enforcing policies, and ensuring uniform threat protection without exposing vulnerabilities.

At Cisco, we're shaping a network security vision—NetWORK—that enables a more agile, automated, and integrated approach for harmonizing policies and enforcement across modern dynamic applications and increasingly heterogeneous networks. Cisco Secure Firewall delivers the deepest integrations between core networking functions and network security, providing the most secure architecture available. This results in a comprehensive security portfolio that protects your applications and users everywhere.
