We are excited to announce the new "Deployment Keys" feature in Secure Access for the Umbrella Roaming Security module providing an effective way to manage device registration within organizations while mitigating unauthorized access. This feature introduces the concept of a deployment key that can be activated and deactivated, as well as revoked. By utilizing deployment keys, administrators gain control over the credentials used by devices during registration for Secure Access protection. This feature has been designed for backward compatibility, ensuring organizations can adopt the new deployment key feature at their own pace without disrupting existing workflows or functionality.

This feature is available with Cisco Secure Client 5.1.8 or later (Win and macOS), Cisco Security Connecter for iOS 1.7.4 or later, Cisco Secure Client for Android 5.1.9.115 or later, and Cisco Security for Chromebook 2.2.1 or later

 

Benefits

1. Enhanced Access Control: The deployment keys offer an effective method for managing device registration, ensuring that only authorized devices can be enrolled. This feature helps organizations effectively prevent the creation of unauthorized "ghost" devices, thereby maintaining control over access within the network. Seamless integration with existing practices ensures that deployment methods remain largely unchanged, allowing organizations to maintain efficiency and continuity without significant operational adjustments.

2. Streamlined Device Management: Administrators can quickly deactivate deployment keys if necessary, allowing existing devices to function while preventing new unauthorized registrations. The ability to remove suspect devices from the dashboard enhances management capabilities, ensuring efficient oversight of device access.

3. Reduced IT Burden: The feature simplifies administrative tasks by enabling straightforward activation, deactivation, and revocation of deployment keys. This ease of management allows IT teams to focus on strategic initiatives, improving productivity and resource allocation throughout the organization.
