Cisco Hybrid Mesh Firewall Overview

With unified cloud management that streamlines workflows and enhances security, Cisco gives you the ability to scale your security fabric without having to rip and replace existing infrastructure. Bolstering productivity, you can now leverage AI-native capabilities to simplify troubleshooting and optimize performance across your enforcement tools.

Cisco's Hybrid Mesh Firewall Components

• Hypershield: AI-native distributed security architecture for AI-scale
• Secure Firewall: Industry-leading firewalls that see through encryption, at scale
• Secure Workload: Gain visibility and apply segmentation policies to applications across hybrid environments with or without agents
• Multicloud Defense: Cloud-native orchestration and automation simplifies deploying, networking, and scaling firewalls in the public cloud
• AI Defense: Safeguards for the development and deployment of AI applications
• Isovalent Enterprise Platform: Discover microservice interactions and enforce policies in Kubernetes environments
• Security Cloud Control: Centrally manage all enforcement points across the security fabric

Benefits

• Simplify security management: Access and manage all your enforcement capabilities across your hybrid environment and gain AI-driven insights from one centralized interface.
• Protect against modern threats: Safeguard environments at key boundaries while protecting against zero-days and threats hidden within encrypted traffic.
• Stop unauthorized lateral movement: Reduce the attack surface and contain the blast radius with coarse and fine-grained segmentation for both traditional and Kubernetes workloads.
• Secure your AI transformation: Detect and defend against dynamic threats introduced through the development and deployment of AI applications.
• Close the exploit gap: Protect against exploits in minutes with an AI-native rule engine that prioritizes vulnerabilities and automatically recommends a surgical mitigating control.
