Global technology conglomerate Cisco has a significant and continually expanding cybersecurity portfolio.
The company offers a holistic suite of security solutions that encompass network security, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), endpoint protection and cloud security.
A core component of Cisco‘s strategy is leveraging its profound networking expertise to seamlessly integrate security functionalities across the entire infrastructure. This approach is evident in its XDR solution, which “leverages AI to proactively find and combat threats across your network, endpoints, cloud, and applications”.
Cisco’s market strength is amplified by a vast global customer base and an extensive, well-established partner ecosystem.
“As AI transforms the enterprise, we are dealing with an entirely new class of risks at unprecedented scale — putting even more pressure on our infrastructure and those who defend it,” says Cisco Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel off the back of the company’s 2025 Cybersecurity Readiness Index.
“This year’s report continues to reveal alarming gaps in security readiness and a lack of urgency to address them.
“Organisations must rethink their strategies now or risk becoming irrelevant in the AI era.”
