So how we use it in our organization is we mainly demonstrate the product. We do have it integrated with other products, be it Cisco or other third parties. My main thing with this product is I demonstrate it to other partners and I demonstrate to other end users of those partners showing them the value that it can add to the Cisco and third-party security environments.
  • So the product enables end users to get visibility into their security environment, not only across the Cisco products but across the third-party products as well. The product also automates detection and response. So the product really offers end-user efficiency in the security operations center.
  • More third-party integration. It's got quite a bit, but more is always better. I know that the product is being superseded by the new Cisco XDR R and XDR has a lot more integration out of the box. So it's really hard to talk about enrichment for this product because the enrichment is coming with a new product in Cisco XDR, which they're promoting quite a bit here at Cisco Live.
It's well suited with any security operation center. So if someone is doing anything with security, whether it be firewalling, endpoint security whether it be email security, it's certainly suited to any type of security that can roll up security events. So this is a single pane of glass where you can view all your security events. So what it's doing is it's taking all your security silos that have historically been very difficult to manage and it's rolling everything up into one dashboard, so it makes it much easier to manage.

We use Cisco SecureX in our organization to unify all Cisco security solutions in the same dashboard, which allows us to have an overview of the behavior of each solution in the first instance and provide a more agile response to any incident. Which translates into better response times and operational simplicity.
  • Organization
  • response to threats
  • Device information
  • reports
  • Greater automation
  • Integration with Meraki
Cisco SecureX, in our experience, is recommended in scenarios where it is planned to have various Cisco security solutions, since they can be integrated into SecureX to have better administration and organization when solving problems, and it is less recommended in situations where there are security solutions with different providers or different deployments.

Cisco SecureX enables our customers to gain additional insights from the products they are already utilizing at no additional cost. Especially for companies using several security solutions across their environment, SecureX offers a variety of invaluable features, strengthening their security posture. The way it just ties in with both the Cisco Security portfolio and best of breed 3rd party products makes it really easy to move from deployment to active usage and even customers not actively handling their own incidents have enjoyed the easy to do investigations that are possible through SecureX. And it just gets better with every type of telemetry offering its data to it. I'm looking forward to see what Cisco has in store for SecureX in the next couple of years, especially looking at XDR.
  • Easy implementation
  • No-code playbooks/workflows enabling automation
  • Enriched visualization through a wide range of data sources
  • More niche vendor support
  • Extended automation capabilities
  • Design
If you're already utilizing any kind of Cisco Secure product, implementing Cisco SecureX is a no brainer. It's easily implemented, popular data sources are comfortable to add and you gain an additional tool to get a better view at your environment. Seeing as how SecureX comes free with all eligible Security products, there really is no downside.

Cisco SecureX is a valuable solution for our company because since we use it it is easier to visualize all our infrastructure and its security, that is why we use said software at the level of all our infrastructure because it not only helps us to have better visibility of its security, but it also guarantees us analysis and automation in the presence of suspicious movements, giving us the advantage of high detection and quick and precise responses in the event of a threat.
  • It provides high visibility of the entire business infrastructure, thus being able to maintain a more enhanced security.
  • It makes the workflow much less burdensome for the enterprise security team, as it performs analytics that help detect known and unknown threats.
  • It allows the automation of the workflow, which gives us the advantage of responding and detecting threats faster.
  • It quickly and accurately identifies what caused the attack and what its scope has been so that carrying out a remediation is simpler.
  • Of course, many companies prefer to obtain security from the cloud; however, not all of them prefer it, which is why having a local implementation would allow these companies to also use said software as their ally for their security.
  • Working with this software can be simple, that is, any threat can be visualized with greater precision, but when it comes to managing its orchestration, it is a bit complex.
  • Its integration with other software can be simple but with others it is not, that is why it would be ideal if all of them could be carried out in the same way.
  • Integrating with a larger number of third party software would be of great help, to further enhance the analysis and detection of threats.
Cisco SecureX is a very useful solution when it comes to having high visibility of business security, since this visibility covers both the network and the cloud, it also allows workflow automation, that is, it is possible to automate tasks most common and even design our own workflow, it is also ideal for detection, response and remediation, this is because it performs analyzes that give us knowledge about who carried out the attack and how far it went, so that remediation can run faster, this means saving time and money.

In our company, we have been using Cisco SecureX to manage and protect each site in Argentina and Brazil (+160 locations) for more than 2 years and in more than 2500 roaming clients. The management of this environment (more than one thousand devices) is so complex and we need a tool to unify the observability.
  • Unified visibility
  • Managed threat hunting
  • User interface could be more intuitive
I consider it possible to use Cisco SecureX in any scenario, mainly in large infrastructures with a lot of devices, sites, and users. Without a doubt, the best use case is when you have multiple sites and many users who work remotely and you need to have a single point of view of all related information.

Currently the people security market it’s suffering from a lack of trained people. On the other side, we’re seeing robots hacking globally. Cisco SecureX came to resolve some of those issues by helping the automatization of many playbooks, which are daily activities that used to consume a lot of hours from analysts. The product has also a single pane of glass to bring visibility for the team, so they don’t need to look into multiple sources to have the information from each Security product. Recently in Cisco SecureX, we’re using device insights and now we know what computers are compliant or not and it’s helping more and more visibility. The analysts share cases using the Cisco SecureX ribbon, so they can contribute to each other all incidents and cases.
  • Management
  • Automation
  • Visibility
  • Control
  • Monitor the orchestrations runs health
  • Courses
  • Cerifications
The Cisco SecureX automation it’s the best part, however, I believe Cisco should invest more with more people spreading the Cisco Orchestration knowledge because this is the hardest part of new people learning how it works. Devnet it’s great, a good job for beginners, Matt it’s doing a great job with videos as well, but people needs to talk with instructors for having their doubts resolved and start to use them on their own.

We use Cisco SecureX as a key system both internally and for our MSSP customers. The entire platform, especially with its Threat Response and Orbital modules, helps us get a grip on threats faster and has really helped us reduce response times. Getting everything up and running needs a bit of planning, and you need to familiarise yourself with the different modules, but once you do, you really get the most out of the platform. For example, we can detect a threat in one customer environment and then query our other environments for the same threat.

The real hidden gem in the platform, however, is the orchestration element. We use it to not only alert our engineers of threats but also inform our customers via integrations with collaboration tools such as Webex that we are responding to it. Our integrations with Secure Endpoint, Duo, Umbrella, etc., also make our response actions more streamlined. One example is blocking a user in Duo if we detect a threat on their endpoint as part of our Zero Trust setup.

The platform is constantly evolving, and hopefully, the new ‘Cisco Secure’ branding will help with messaging about their XDR offering.
  • Orchestration
  • Response
  • Visibility
  • Automation
  • Third party integrations
  • Better messaging from Cisco
  • Easier movement into the Orbital and Threat Response modules
  • Sort out the Cisco SecureX SSO process
This is perfect for organisations with small or limited security teams who want to get more from their Cisco and third-party investments. With Secure Endpoint makes detecting and responding to threats much easier.

Any organisation looking to overhaul its security infrastructure or even wrap around its cloud-first strategy with solutions such as Intune should seriously look at Cisco’s suite of products. I’ve implemented Secure Endpoint, Umbrella, and Duo for customers primarily using Intune for device management, and the cool new insight features in Cisco SecureX really help with visibility over their estate.

End-to-end security with support to existing infrastructure. Highly professional team with robust backing during and after the migration cycle. All queries handled with min TAT. I'm using it it has let me access my secure work files both in the office and remotely from my home office, It assesses your environment and maps your business requirement with Cisco Security products. Efficient day-to-day threat monitoring operation operations created a burden on the security team, adaptive with the new technologies, very detailed reporting devices performance, and security analysis report. An industrial standard security operations centre with stability and trusted by the board manager of my work.
  • Easy to use the interface.
  • Easy to config and using any connect VPN client.
  • Very stable you can trust the network.
  • Limitation with using IPS.
  • That is all no more difficulty I find in this.
Accelerate incident management and threat investigation by aggregating global intelligence and local context into one view. Automate routine tasks with pre-built workflows that are compatible with common use cases I can also create my own workflows using drag-and-drop, low-code canvas. Secure comes with all secure products, integrating our existing ecosystem with third-party solutions, and getting an open platform that simplifies it all.

I find it quite Confusing to look at the UIUX experience is not the best. However, I’ve witnessed a lot of peers and the people that I consulted for find it very useful once they had a good grasp of the product and practised using it but from my first instinct, it was quite difficult.
  • Allows our team communication to streamline.
  • Less time talking and communication outside. The dashboard is informative for collaboration.
  • Everything is jumbled up.
To be honest I’m not a fan of the product but I have full trust and transparency and data privacy and collection that is probably by far the best selling point for you guys is that I feel trusted giving you my data and information.

We use [Cisco SecureX (formerly Threat Response)] to aggregate all the data across all of our security products and automate logins. It is a huge time saver and is being used in the it department only, but provides reports to upper management.
  • Brings all data to one central point.
  • Shows data connections
  • Integration with case books very well
  • Allows third party enrichments
  • It is so slow
  • There is no good way to export data for a report or Managment
  • The interface is clunky
  • Wish there was an AI to intelligently add related events
  • Automation is very hard to use
You can really use [Cisco SecureX (formerly Threat Response)] for any threat big or small. It helps to drive you towards which product you need to be looking at. It does not allow you to easily drill down into the info you need to make a good decision. It is also not a reporting tool.
