Discover how a unified platform approach to SASE can help organizations simplify IT and deliver better user experiences that are simple, secure, and predictable.
Cisco Plus Secure Connect aims to provide secure interconnectivity across various systems. They offer a dedicated support team and a new Service Edge architecture that promotes sustainability, efficiency, and an enhanced user experience. To address the challenge of configuring policies across multiple branch networks, Cisco proposes a unified policy management solution. This solution encompasses both the secure connect and Meraki SD-WAN branch, offering centralized management and distributed enforcement. The system automatically selects the appropriate enforcement point based on policy intent, but manual enforcement and exceptions are also possible. Additional features include a policy object page for easy management and auditing capabilities through logs and events tracking.
