Cisco Web Security:
Protection, Control, and Value
The World Wide Web is a wonderful thing. It’s also insecure.
But how do you protect your devices and resources while also
using social media and web applications?
We believe that one solution isn’t enough. You need a variety of protections against today’s fast-
evolving cyberthreats. But that introduces complexity and bigger operational workloads to your
IT environment, right? Not with the Cisco® Web Security Appliance (WSA) (see Figure 1). Cisco
WSA is an all-in-one highly secure web gateway that brings you strong protection, complete
control, and investment value. It also offers an array of competitive web security deployment
options, each of which includes Cisco’s market-leading global threat intelligence infrastructure.
