The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The essential tool for securing your industrial operations
Visibility built into your industrial network
Cyber Vision embeds visibility capabilities into industrial network equipment. There’s no need to source dedicated security appliances and think about how to install them. There’s no need to build out-of-band networks to send industrial network flows to a central security platform. Network managers will appreciate the unique simplicity and lower costs of the Cyber Vision architecture.
Unmatched visibility on all connected assets
Cyber Vision identifies your assets, their characteristics, and their communication patterns by passively capturing and decoding industrial application flows. This ultra-safe approach can be enhanced with active discovery that sends requests in the semantics of the specific ICS protocol at play. These inquiries are sent by sensors embedded into network equipment, so that they are not blocked by firewalls or Network Address Translation (NAT) boundaries, helping ensure 100% visibility.
Operational insights for OT
Cyber Vision records all application flows within the industrial environment to provide insights into network issues, device misconfigurations, communication problems, unexpected changes to industrial processes, malicious traffic, and more. It helps you improve network performance, troubleshoot production issues, and take action to maintain system integrity and reduce downtime.
Security posture for IT
Cyber Vision combines protocol analysis, intrusion detection, vulnerability detection, and behavioral analysis to help you understand your security posture. It automatically calculates risk scores so you can prioritize what needs to be fixed. It also provides guidance on what should be done so you can proactively build an improvement process to address risks.
Extending IT security to OT
Cyber Vision’s asset inventory and visibility into OT events have value to both operations and security teams. Out-of-the-box integrations with Cisco’s cybersecurity portfolio, as well as with a broad set of third-party solutions, extend Cyber Vision’s insights to your existing tools. Security teams will have visibility across both IT and OT domains to manage risks and enforce security policies globally.
“We have firewalls, but little visibility of what is behind them. Cisco Cyber Vision shows us exactly what devices are connected, their profiles, how much traffic they generate, what they are communicating, and who has remote access to them.”
Pascal Pauwels
Infrastructure Director, Unilin Group
“Our OT team didn’t necessarily understand the nuances of cybersecurity, while we in IT were unfamiliar with the technologies they use every day. Cisco Cyber Vision helped bring us together—giving us visibility into exactly what devices we have and what they’re doing.”
Kristen Sanders
CISO, Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority
