Cisco Got Serious About PQC at Cisco Live 2026
Cisco got serious about Post-Quantum Cryptography at Cisco Live US. With Cisco IQ, the 8000 Series Secure Router, and a PQC-safe full stack architecture, Cisco is making sure their product lineup is secure today for tomorrow's threats.
Cisco Secure Firewall TLS Decryption
Cisco Secure Firewall's TLS inspection offers powerful security but often leaves gaps due to misconfigurations and broad bypass rules. This article explores the challenges of encrypted traffic, the importance of strategic decryption, and the role of Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE) in enhancing visibility without full decryption, urging a tiered, thoughtful approach.
Cisco's Intent to Acquire Splunk and the Evolution of Data-Driven Security
Cisco has revealed its potentially largest acquisition to date with the strategic intent to reshape the security information and event management (SIEM) sector by acquiring Splunk in an all-cash transaction valued at $28 billion.
Cisco Mesh Policy Engine From Firewall Rules to Firewalling Intent
Firewall policy sprawl isn't accidental—it's the compounding cost of every acquisition, migration, and vendor mismatch. Mesh Policy Engine reframes firewall management around intent, not syntax: describe the desired outcome, let topology-aware compilation handle placement, normalization, and translation across every platform.
ThousandEyes: Five Important Things You Need to Know
The complexity of the application landscape is continuing to change, segmenting the path from our users to our applications. Monitoring the performance of that landscape has become equally complex with the number of Application Performance Monitoring and Management (APM) tools growing by the year. A large part of that issue is the visibility in segments that we don't control. ThousandEyes offers options that largely haven't been available before, and that makes this product awesome and exciting. In this article, I'm going to provide five reasons why you should consider ThousandEyes.
Part 1- Bridging Kubernetes, Cilium, & eBPF to Networking Concepts for Network Engineers
As cloud-native technologies continue to converge with traditional networking in the data center and enterprise, understanding how Kubernetes, Cilium and eBPF work is crucial for network engineers. Hybrid mesh firewalls are the latest trend, and distributed firewalls (like Cisco's Hypershield) are emerging in the market.
Securing the Era of AI: How Cisco AI Defense Protects the Entire AI Lifecycle
AI's rapid adoption outpaces governance, creating unmanaged risks. Cisco's AI Defense addresses vulnerabilities in third-party tools and enterprise applications, offering automated red-teaming, runtime protection and AI supply chain management. This framework ensures the secure deployment of AI, striking a balance between innovation and accountability, and provides a blueprint for responsible AI adoption.
Part 2- Bridging Kubernetes, Cilium & eBPF to Networking Concepts for Network Engineers
As cloud-native technologies continue to converge with traditional networking in the data center and enterprise, understanding how Kubernetes, Cilium and eBPF works is crucial for network engineers. With hybrid mesh firewalls being the latest trend, and distributed firewalls (like Cisco's Hypershield) emerging in the market. Understanding how Kubernetes transforms traditional IP networking concepts into a dynamic, software-defined environment is crucial. This article demystifies Kubernetes security, making it accessible for network engineers familiar with ACLs and VLANs. You may think this doesn't apply to you, but if you're planning a firewall refresh anytime soon, then these concepts will need to be part of your vernacular going forward.
