Firewalls as we know them just changed with major announcements from Cisco. 

A very big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring this video. 

Cisco have announced both an AI Assistant and EVE (Encrypted Visibility Engine) to scan encrypted traffic. 

// Cisco news detail //
AI Assistant for Firewall Policy: The Cisco AI Assistant for Security is first going live within the Cisco Cloud-delivered Firewall Management Center and Cisco Defense Orchestrator to solve the big challenge of setting and maintaining complex policies and firewall rules. Administrators can now use natural language to discover policies and get rule recommendations, eliminating duplicate rules, misconfigured policies, and complex workflows with increased visibility as well as accelerated troubleshooting and configuration tasks.

AI-powered Encrypted Visibility Engine for All Firewall Models: Most datacenter traffic today is encrypted-and the inability to inspect encrypted traffic is a key security concern. Decrypting traffic for inspection is resource-intensive and fraught with operational, privacy, and compliance issues. With the 7.4.1 Operating System now available across the entire Cisco Secure Firewall family, customers see AI go even further via the Encrypted Visibility Engine. The Encrypted Visibility Engine leverages billions of samples, including sandboxed malware samples, to determine if the encrypted traffic is transporting malware. It can tell which operating system the traffic is coming from and what client application is generating that - all without the need for decryption.

#453: Is AI the future of Cybersecurity?

Is this the beginning of a new type of firewall that will replace or augment traditional firewalls? Is AI now eating firewalls; and will we still be using them in future? 

Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring this video and my trip to McLaren.

#466: The new AI Cyber Defense you need to know about

Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live and this video!

Cisco’s $28B acquisition of Splunk made them one of the largest and most influential security companies in the world, with the broadest set of telemetry and visibility. At Cisco Live, Cisco announced that they are integrating the Cisco Security Cloud with Splunk to change the game for threat detection and incident response.

Security Operations teams can fully leverage the telemetry and alerts from the Cisco Security Cloud as part of a unified threat detection, investigation, and response workflow in Splunk. The new Cisco Security Cloud Technology Add-on (TA) for Splunk is a simple, reliable way to get a broad range of Cisco Security Cloud telemetry and analytics outcomes into Splunk. Cisco Duo and Secure Malware Analytics are available now, with additional sources to be added in the coming months.
