Bias-Free Language
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.

Modernize security management with an agentic workforce
Security teams are not struggling because they lack tools. They are struggling because security work is fragmented across too many consoles, too much data, and too little shared context.
Cisco Cloud Control unifies Cisco domains into one governed operations platform with shared inventory, topology, alerts, identity, and AI-powered workflows. Inside it, AI Canvas gives operators and AI agents a shared workspace to troubleshoot across domains while preserving evidence, timelines, and context.
Security in Cloud Control
Security in Cloud Control gives teams one environment to manage enforcement points, correlate alerts across Cisco domains, and connect policy decisions to broader operational context. Organizations can leverage the following Cisco security technologies to implement scalable solutions such as Hybrid Mesh Firewall and Zero Trust Access:
● Cisco Secure Router (Catalyst SD-WAN and NGFW)
One investigation. Every domain
Built-in is an agentic workforce of autonomous AI agents engaged through conversational LLM prompts, helping teams work with the speed and expertise of highly skilled network and security admins. Agents continuously monitor to identify issues, recommend ready-to-execute configurations, and generate tested, production-ready rules mapped to relevant objects, groups, and baselines while administrators remain in control.
Unify security operations from policy to action
Security in Cloud Control helps teams simplify policy management, accelerate investigation, and improve operational confidence. With AI Canvas and an agentic workforce for security, teams can define policy once, enforce where needed, and act with full context.
Define once, enforce anywhere
Mesh Policy Engine translates security intent into tailored rules across Cisco and selected third-party firewalls.
Investigate faster
AI Canvas lets agents gather evidence across security, identity, network, observability, and application data.
Act with confidence
Pre-change simulation and validation help admins review impact before deploying policy updates.
Keep admins in control
Approval workflows, RBAC, and audit trails keep important security actions governed.
Reduce policy complexity
Policy analyzer and optimizer identify risky, redundant, shadowed, or unused rules.
Preserve policy knowledge
Policy lifecycle automation captures business intent, reasoning, approvals, and change history.
Modernize without rip-and-replace
Security in Cloud Control supports existing Cisco and selected third-party enforcement points.
Streamline SASE operations
Unified management across networking and security domains simplifies policy and enforcement from branch to cloud edge.
Get the full picture
Cisco Cloud Control unifies inventory, topology, alerts, and telemetry across domains.
Accelerate onboarding
Natural-language policy authoring and plain-English explanations guide less experienced admins.
Optimize continuously
Telemetry-driven recommendations flag drift and suggest safer policy improvements over time.
Lower operational friction
Unified AI Assistant and AI Canvas reduce console switching and manual cross-team coordination.
Security in Cisco Cloud Control with AI Canvas gives security teams a new operating model for the AI era: unified context, governed action, and an agentic workforce that helps teams move faster without giving up control.
Define policy once. Enforce where needed. Investigate with full context. Act with confidence.
