What is Cisco Umbrella?
Cisco Umbrella, a key component of Cisco's secure access service edge (SASE) architecture, integrates multiple security services in a single, centrally managed, cloud-native solution to secure access to the internet and control cloud app usage. By unifying secure web gateway, firewall, DNS-layer security, threat intelligence, and cloud access security broker (CASB) solutions, Cisco Umbrella helps reduce the resources required for deployment, configuration,
and integration. And, by delivering this functionality from the cloud, you can scale
to meet the needs of a remote and roaming workforce, shifting network perimeter,
and multi-cloud environment — all while simplifying security. Umbrella can be integrated with an SD-WAN implementation to provide a combination of performance, security, and flexibility to delight both end users and a security team.
