Cisco Umbrella: Security Grabs Service Provider Attention

Service providers (SPs) are building security into their services to provide added-value to their end customers and to grow SP revenue. Ken Davidson, Director of Cisco Cloud Security for SPs, highlights three trends that influence how SPs build in security: reliance on big data and machine learning, evolution toward Secure Internet Gateway (SIG), and convergence of security with the network. Cisco Umbrella is a cloud security service that enables SPs to provide secure internet and mobile services—“clean pipe”—protecting their customers from malware, phishing, ransomware and more.
