Fortifying Cybersecurity: An Unbreakable Path

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Cisco Umbrella from other similar products?

Cisco Umbrella can be considered as operating under a different model than other programs. Umbrella goes further and employs the internet’s architecture to apply security at the cloud periphery thus stopping the undesirable activity before the connection is made. So, based on the capability of its processing more than 700 billion Internet requests per day and machine learning, new threats are identified and stopped in the process of their formation.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Umbrella also stands out for its integration with Cisco SD-WAN, so there is constant defense against net threats at branches and with remote users. It tracks the same policy across all the endpoints and their specific configuration to enforce internet usage policies as configured from the central management console. Also, Umbrella contains detailed reporting and analysis tools to flag the security risks, so that corrective action can be taken in advance.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Overall it can be concluded that Cisco Umbrella is an effective piece of software with the few drawbacks. Increasing compatibility of the software with old generation computers and specific operating conditions could extend the number of people, organizations, colleges, etc. using the software. Moreover, expanding the management settings with more detailed policies of data encryption like file type or user type of policy might improve the protection in data.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Implementing Cisco Umbrella, the company has demonstrated itself as a loyal defender of the Market Specialist team’s online environment. This comprehensiveness, together with the tight monitoring and control facilities and the good threats’ detection and prevention, gives the team the necessary confidence while acting on the World Wide Web. When the user employs Umbrella, he will avoid dangerous sites along with inappropriate content, keeping the internet environment efficient and safe, while the client's team will be protected and their assets safely guarded.
