Cisco and the Always Evolving Security Portfolio of Solutions - Fire Jumper

Last week I had the pleasure to attend a Fire Jumper Achievement classes, and it was a great eye opener for me. Security products have changed and evolved tremendously over the past few years, this evolution is due to the constant changing Attack vectors users and companies experience out there in the wild. The Attack Continuum Cisco has a good strategy to address Security threats into different phases that could be possible in an attack. Understanding that there is not one “Perfect Solution” is part of the play. They do a great job to explain the different aspects of a security attack by breaking it down into 3 phases: Before, During and After. I also think that Cisco understands that there are very advanced and sophisticated attacks, which can bypass IPS systems, Firewall Rules and other security measures you may have at the edge, along with the security that you can deploy at the core of your infrastructure, on services such as DNS, Web and Email traffic among others.
