In my discussions with security executives who gathered at the recent Gartner Security Summit they recognized that unsecured access to the network is a critical threat vector.   However, when leveraged properly,the networkitself also provides a significant platform that offers comprehensive protection to close those gaps. What does this mean?

The network uniformly sees and participates in everything across the threat continuum, whether before, during or after an attack. If we can leverage the insights and inherent control the network provides, IT organizations can truly augment their overall end-to-end security across this continuum. If done correctly, this augmentation can happen without investing a large amount of time, energy, and resources.  Learn more about the unique security woven into Cisco's Unified Access solution in the recent blog  The Expanding Burden of Security
