Cisco Secure Firewall is your cornerstone for driving Security Resilience across your hybrid and multicloud environment.

The firewall is more than a box. It is the advanced capabilities and outcomes that can be applied anywhere, on-prem or in the cloud, protecting your data and applications wherever they live.

The flexibility of Secure Firewall makes it a fundamental building block for network security.

It can easily be inserted into any environment to protect your data in even the most complex and distributed hybrid environments.

And for critical cloud operations, Secure Firewall can be consumed as a service, enabling rapid deployment and lower cost of ownership.

With Secure Firewall, you can see more and detect threats faster.

Only Secure Firewall gives you the visibility to identify potentially malicious applications in encrypted traffic flows with an Encrypted Visibility Engine. It also receives hourly threat intelligence updates from Cisco Talos® – one of the largest commercial threat intelligence teams in the world.

Combined with URL filtering, malware defense, and Snort 3 IPS, Secure Firewall delivers robust protection against even the most sophisticated threats.

Actionable intelligence enables you to prioritize and share critical information so you can rapidly respond – the right way.

To accelerate detection, response, and recovery, Secure Firewall includes a license entitlement to Cisco SecureX, our cloud-native platform with XDR capabilities.

Together, Secure Firewall and SecureX can cut investigation and response time up to 75% by sharing global intelligence and local context.¹

Unifying security controls reduces risk and streamlines operations.

Cloud-delivered Firewall Management Center (FMC), brings firewall management into one easily accessible application, allowing you to control your firewalls from anywhere in real time.

Updates are applied automatically, reducing potential risks and simplifying operations. A SaaS application, it contains the same functionality and look as its on-prem sibling, eliminating the need for new training.

And like the on-prem version, cloud-delivered FMC includes a ribbon to access Cisco SecureX,
accelerating response and remediation from one place.

Promote stronger security and greater collaboration.

In keeping with the principle of unifying security controls, Secure Firewall dynamically shares policies driven by intelligence from Secure Workload, which protects your applications and data by segmenting workloads to prevent unauthorized lateral movement.

This enables your NetOps team to run at DevOps speed, closing gaps to increase security efficacy and driving collaboration across teams.
