—The Cisco ASA 5500 Series offers businesses strong, 

adaptive protection from the fast-evolving threat environment through its unique combination of hardware 

and software extensibility and its powerful Modular Policy Framework (MPF). The innovative extensible 

multiprocessor design and software architecture of the Cisco ASA 5500 Series enables businesses to easily 

install additional high-performance security services through security services modules (SSMs) and security 

services cards (SSCs). This provides businesses with outstanding investment protection, while enabling 

them to expand the security services profile of their Cisco ASA 5500 Series, as their security and 

performance needs grow. All these services are easily managed through the powerful Cisco Modular Policy 

Framework, which allows businesses to create highly customized security policies while making it simple to 

add new security and networking services into their existing policies.

—The Cisco ASA 5500 Series enables standardization on a 

single platform to reduce the overall operational cost of security. A common environment for configuration 

simplifies management and reduces training costs for staff, while the common hardware platform of the 

series reduces sparing costs. Additional efficiencies are realized by deploying integrated capabilities, 

obviating the need for the complex designs required to connect standalone solutions. 

● 

—The graphical Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager 

(ASDM), a comprehensive command line interface (CLI), verbose syslog, and Simple Network Management 

Protocol (SNMP) support round out a rich complement of management options. Multi-unit deployments 

benefit greatly from Cisco Security Manager, a platform capable of managing distributed deployments of 5 

to 5000 devices. The award-winning Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (Cisco 

Security MARS) recognizes and correlates real network attacks and then rapidly defines how to stop them, 

thereby decreasing administrative overhead by reducing false positives and simplifying audit compliance.  

The Cisco ASA 5500 Series 

The Cisco ASA 5500 Series includes the Cisco ASA 5505, 5510, 5520, 5540, 5550, and 5580 Adaptive Security 

Appliances

—purpose-built, high-performance security solutions that take advantage of Cisco’s expertise in 

developing industry-leading, award-winning security and VPN solutions. Through the Cisco MPF, the Cisco ASA 

5500 Series brings a new level of security and policy control to applications and networks. MPF enables highly 

customizable, flow-specific security policies that have been tailored to application requirements. The performance 

and extensibility of the Cisco ASA 5500 Series are enhanced through user-installable SSMs. This adaptable 

architecture enables businesses to rapidly deploy security services when and where they are needed, such as 

tailoring inspection techniques to specific application and user needs or adding additional intrusion prevention and 

content security services such as those delivered by the Adaptive Inspection and Prevention (AIP) and Content 

Security and Control (CSC) SSMs. Furthermore, the modular hardware architecture of the Cisco ASA 5500 Series, 

along with the powerful MPF, provides the flexibility to meet future network and security requirements, extending 

the outstanding investment protection provided by the Cisco ASA 5500 Series, and allowing businesses to adapt 

their network defenses to new threats as they arise.
