Features and benefits
See and share rich user and device details
Users and devices are shown in a simple, flexible interface. ISE shares details through the Cisco Platform Exchange Grid (pxGrid) with partner platforms to make them user, device, and network aware. (1:51 mins.)
Control all access from one place
Simplify access across wired, wireless, and VPN connections. Policies are cascaded across all types of access points and enforced by Cisco TrustSec software-defined segmentation.
Stop and contain threats
Reduce risks and contain threats by dynamically controlling network access. ISE can assess vulnerabilities and apply threat intelligence. It can also contain a suspicious device for remediation. We call this Cisco Rapid Threat Containment.
THE NETWORK. INTUITIVE.
Our open, software-driven approach leverages Cisco ISE. Constantly adapts. Constantly protects.
