We have worked closely with Cisco for many years in large complex environments and have developed integrations to support a variety of Cisco solutions for our joint customers. In recent years we have seen an increased interest in the use of Cisco Meraki devices by enterprises that are also AlgoSec customers. In this post , we will highlight some of the AlgoSec capabilities that can quickly add value for Meraki customers.
Enterprises often find themselves tethered to complex and inflexible network architectures that impede their journey towards business agility and operational efficiency. Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE, a term coined by Gartner in 2019, defines a newer framework that converges enterprise networking and security point solutions into a single, secure, cloud-native, and globally distributed solution that secures all edges.
Every time you deploy a new Cisco device, whether to handle network growth or as part of a product refresh cycle, someone needs to configure it to meet your unique needs. But configuring switches or routers is not a one-time event — support teams often need to add a new VLAN, change an access port to a trunk or add a new route to the routing table.
Cloud computing has become a cornerstone of business operations, with cloud security at the forefront of strategic concerns. A significant focus within this domain is the protection of containerized environments, which are increasingly targeted in cloud-based breaches. Embracing CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform) is crucial, particularly for its role in securing these versatile yet vulnerable container environments.
Compared to on-premises data storage, cloud computing comes with a lot of benefits. On-demand access to company data, flexibility, and fast collaboration are just a few. But along with these advantages come increased security risks. To manage them, companies should invest in regular cloud security assessments.
This week’s news of Cisco’s intent to acquire Isovalent sends an important message to the cloud security ecosystem: network security is no longer an afterthought in the cloud-native world. It’s now a critical component of any robust security posture for cloud-native applications. This move not only validates the work of the Isovalent team in evangelizing this essential category but also underscores the vision Tigera has pioneered since 2016 with Project Calico.
Today, IT networks are the backbone of nearly every business. Simply put, if your network isn’t performing at its best, the flow of data and services will be impeded, and your business operations will suffer. This modern reality makes effective server and network monitoring software not just a technical necessity but a business imperative.
