Cisco Secure Network Analytics, formerly known as Stealthwatch, is a network security analytics and visibility solution that uses ML for:
- Threat Detection: Detects and responds to threats by analyzing network traffic patterns.
- Anomaly Detection: ML algorithms identify unusual behaviors that could indicate a security breach or network issue.
- Network Monitoring: Provides comprehensive visibility into network traffic and performance.
Cisco Secure Workload
![Secure-Workload.png Secure-Workload.png](https://community.cisco.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/223568i3EB08871D9020B2D/image-dimensions/105x105?v=v2)
Cisco Secure Workload, formerly known as Cisco Tetration, is a data center and cloud workload protection platform that uses ML for:
- Workload Behavior Analysis: Understands and monitors normal behavior of workloads to detect deviations that could indicate a security issue.
- Policy Recommendations: Provides micro-segmentation policy recommendations to improve security based on ML analysis of application dependencies.
- Compliance Monitoring: Uses ML to continuously monitor and ensure compliance with security policies.
Cisco Umbrella
![Umbrella.png Umbrella.png](https://community.cisco.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/223570i41FC9518FB6E9E9B/image-dimensions/111x112?v=v2)
Cisco Umbrella is a cloud-delivered security service that uses ML for:
- DNS Layer Security: Uses ML to analyze and predict which domains are likely to be malicious and block access to those sites.
- Secure Web Gateway: Uses ML to inspect web traffic and enforce security policies.
- Threat Intelligence: Continuously updates its threat intelligence database using ML to identify and categorize new threats.
Cisco XDR
![XDR.png XDR.png](https://community.cisco.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/223571i39215F11774238E3/image-dimensions/102x102?v=v2)
Cisco XDR (Extended Detection and Response) enhances security operations by unifying security data, detecting sophisticated threats, and automating responses to mitigate potential risks effectively. XDR uses ML to:
- Unify Security Data: Integrate data from multiple sources to provide a comprehensive view of threats.
- Detect Advanced Threats: Identify sophisticated threats that may evade traditional security measures.
- Automate Response: Provide coordinated and automated responses to detected threats.
