keep your internal network secure from malware, sensitive data loss, productivity loss, and other 
internet-based threats. 
What’s New
What’s New in Cisco AsyncOS 9.0
Feature
Description
Secure ICAP
You can now secure the channel between the appliance and an external 
DLP (ICAP) server.
TLS/SSL Configuration
For enhanced security, you can now enable and disable SSL v3 and 
various versions of TLS for several services. Disabling SSL v3 for all 
services is recommended for best security. You also can enable a 
protocol fallback option.
Note
Cisco’s Update servers do not support SSL v3, therefore TLS 
1.0 or above must be enabled for the Cisco Update service. 
However, SSL v3 can still be used with a local update server, if 
it is so configured—you must determine which versions of 
SSL/TLS are supported on that server.
