Cisco announces new service enhancements around XDR and SASE

Cisco, a provider of enterprise security solutions, has unveiled new security services to further its journey to radically simplify and deliver end-to-end security, across users, devices, networks, applications and data.

According to the vendor, the new services improve Extended Detection and Response (XDR) with greater visibility across corporate networks, endpoint and cloud. New innovations expand Cisco’s vision for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) with enhanced threat detection in the cloud and redefine, and simplify network security.

Cisco said it continues to simplify customers’ security, network and IT operations – empowering organisations to embark securely on Digital Transformation.

“Security has to be at the heart of everything in the new world we live in. We believe it needs to be done with a platform approach that is simple, comprehensive and based on intelligence,” said Fady Younes, Cybersecurity Director, Cisco Middle East and Africa. “There is really no perimeter in the enterprise to defend anymore. We need visibility across endpoints, users and applications as well as securing critical control points with continuous passwordless authentication.”

According to Cisco, the erosion of the network perimeter and transition to work-from-anywhere have conspired to expose endpoint devices, users and applications to advanced threats more so than ever before.
