Flexible cloud security for your users on and off the network
Enterprise security and networking are facing a significant transformation as organization embrace SASE, a Secure Access Service Edge. Wide-scale adoption of cloud applications, an increase in remote workers, and expansion of branch offices has rendered the centralized, on-premises security model impractical.
The convenience, cost savings, and performance benefits of going direct to the internet is driving a new decentralized approach to networking. Yet with change comes risk and a new set of security challenges. Organizations require a broader set of protection that not only improves security, but simplifies management.
Umbrella is the cloud-native, multi-function security service at the core of Cisco’s SASE architecture.
It unifies firewall, secure web gateway, DNS-layer security, cloud access security broker (CASB), and threat intelligence solutions into a single cloud service to help businesses of all sizes secure their network. As more organizations embrace direct internet access, Umbrella makes it easy to extend protection to roaming users and branch offices.
Domain name servers (DNS) are at the heart of connecting every internet request. Securing the DNS layer means blocking malicious domains, IP addresses, and cloud applications before a connection is ever established. Join the more than 24,000 organizations that use Umbrella to deliver a fast, safe, and reliable internet experience.
Cybersecurity is evolving toward a SASE future. By consolidating formerly disparate features like secure web gateway, cloud-delivered firewall, cloud access security broker, and DNS security into one cloud-based architecture, organizations can streamline their cybersecurity and improve their security resilience.
