Cisco SecureX Information Reviews & Insights

Cisco SecureX is a valuable solution for our company because since we use it it is easier to visualize all our infrastructure and its security, that is why we use said software at the level of all our infrastructure because it not only helps us to have better visibility of its security, but it also guarantees us analysis and automation in the presence of suspicious movements, giving us the advantage of high detection and quick and precise responses in the event of a threat.

Cisco SecureX is a very useful solution when it comes to having high visibility of business security, since this visibility covers both the network and the cloud, it also allows workflow automation, that is, it is possible to automate tasks most common and even design our own workflow, it is also ideal for detection, response and remediation, this is because it performs analyzes that give us knowledge about who carried out the attack and how far it went, so that remediation can run faster, this means saving time and money.

We use Cisco SecureX as a key system both internally and for our MSSP customers. The entire platform, especially with its Threat Response and Orbital modules, helps us get a grip on threats faster and has really helped us reduce response times. Getting everything up and running needs a bit of planning, and you need to familiarise yourself with the different modules, but once you do, you really get the most out of the platform. For example, we can detect a threat in one customer environment and then query our other environments for the same threat.

The real hidden gem in the platform, however, is the orchestration element. We use it to not only alert our engineers of threats but also inform our customers via integrations with collaboration tools such as Webex that we are responding to it. Our integrations with Secure Endpoint, Duo, Umbrella, etc., also make our response actions more streamlined. One example is blocking a user in Duo if we detect a threat on their endpoint as part of our Zero Trust setup.

The platform is constantly evolving, and hopefully, the new ‘Cisco Secure’ branding will help with messaging about their XDR offering.

This is perfect for organisations with small or limited security teams who want to get more from their Cisco and third-party investments. With Secure Endpoint makes detecting and responding to threats much easier.

Any organisation looking to overhaul its security infrastructure or even wrap around its cloud-first strategy with solutions such as Intune should seriously look at Cisco’s suite of products. I’ve implemented Secure Endpoint, Umbrella, and Duo for customers primarily using Intune for device management, and the cool new insight features in Cisco SecureX really help with visibility over their estate.
