Why Cisco’s Secure Firewall leads in Enterprise Security: Key Insights from Forrester

At ISN, we’re excited to share Cisco’s recent recognition as a Leader in Forrester’s Q4 2024 Enterprise Firewall Solutions Report.  Cisco’s Secure Firewall stands out for its ability to meet the challenges of today’s Software Defined world with hybrid and multi-cloud environments, delivering the flexibility and security businesses need to thrive.

With advanced capabilities like Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE), Cisco ensures that even encrypted traffic is monitored and secured, safeguarding your network without compromising on performance. Backed by Cisco Talos and AI-powered threat intelligence, Cisco’s firewall solutions offer real-time threat detection and a proactive approach to defending against advanced cyber threats.

Why Cisco Leads in Software Defined Network Security

Cisco’s firewall with embedded SD-WAN technology provides more than just basic security. For example, not only can you now construct a fully featured SD-WAN network using just Cisco Secure Firewalls additionally, the Snort 3 intrusion prevention system (IPS), an integral part of Cisco’s Secure Firewall, is enhanced by machine learning and is designed to detect and mitigate modern threats quickly and efficiently.

Cisco’s comprehensive, layered approach is aligned with Zero Trust and SASE models, ensuring that security is embedded within the network fabric, adaptable to any environment, and future-proofed for emerging threats. Cisco’s firewall solutions also integrate with Cisco’s traditional SD-WAN solutions to optimise performance and secure connectivity, offering a holistic approach that modern enterprises need to meet security, scalability, and performance requirements.
