Solution: Cisco Security
Intelligence Operations
Traditional security, which relies on layering of products and
the use of multiple filters, is not enough to defend against
the latest generation of malware, which spreads quickly, has
global targets, and uses multiple vectors to propagate.
Cisco stays ahead of the latest threats using real-time threat
intelligence from Cisco Security Intelligence Operations (SIO),
the world’s largest cloud-based security ecosystem. Cisco
SIO uses SensorBase data from almost one million live data
feeds from deployed Cisco email, web, firewall, and intrusion
prevention solutions.
Cisco SIO weighs and processes the data, automatically
categorizing threats and creating rules using more than 200
parameters. Security researchers also collect and supply

information about security events that have the potential for
widespread impact on networks, applications, and devices.
Rules are dynamically delivered to deployed Cisco security
devices every three to five minutes. The Cisco SIO team also
publishes security best practice recommendations and tactical
guidance for thwarting threats.
Cisco is committed to providing complete security solutions
that are integrated, timely, comprehensive, and effective—
enabling holistic security for organizations worldwide. With
