Fortifying Our Mobile Frontier
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Cisco SASE from other similar products?
Cisco Umbrella is great at keeping users and locations safe. It's great that you can define security policies by identities, not locations. The Umbrella global backbone ensures consistent protection for internet activity.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Securing our mobile apps is crucial. Umbrella stops threats before they reach users by enforcing security at the DNS and IP layers. It can block bad sites before they reach users.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Umbrella's cloud-delivered model could add latency for mobile users in regions without global backbone peering points. Some apps need to be filtered on-site if they are very sensitive to latency.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Today's employees demand seamless mobile access to digital products and services. But this makes our risk much bigger. Securing traditional office infrastructure is difficult enough. Mobile threats like risky WiFi, device compromises, and data leakage make it harder. Cisco Umbrella showed us a new way to provide security without affecting the mobile experience. Its smart proxy checks traffic for hidden threats, while dynamic filters block inappropriate content. Finally, we have the protection we need for our mobile-cloud transition.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
