Manage and Secure Consumer Cloud Apps alongside 
Corporate Apps
The enterprise network continues to evolve as organizations embrace 
cloud computing along with cloud-based and software-as-a-service 
(SaaS) applications. Employees are also demanding access to 
unauthorized consumer applications in the cloud, such as file-sharing 
apps, social media, and collaboration tools from the corporate network. 
The use of these applications reduces the ability of IT administrators 
to gain visibility into and control enterprise data, especially when it 
is accessed from unmanaged devices. Simply blocking access to 
unapproved cloud applications may lead an employee to find another, 
lesser-known, and potentially riskier service instead. These factors, 
combined with the rise in mobility and the increase in the number of 
connected devices on the network, mean that a different approach is 
required to manage and secure devices and their access to cloud-
based applications, whether corporate sanctioned or not. 
The Cisco® Identity Services Engine (ISE) integrates with leading 
cloud access security brokers (CASBs) to bring together a view of all 
cloud applications and services across the network as well as relevant 
user identity and device context to create precise access policies for 
highly secure usage. The Identity Services Engine uses Cisco Platform 
Exchange Grid (pxGrid) technology to share contextual data with leading 
CASB solutions to address security and compliance risks associated 
with cloud applications and services and to achieve greater visibility into, 
and control of, cloud application usage.
How Cisco ISE Works with CASB Integration
The Identity Services Engine, using pxGrid technology, provides its user 
identity and device contextual information to CASB partner platforms in 
the following ways:
•  Cisco ISE contextual data is appended to CASB partner systems and 
enhances their detailed auditing controls over user, content and data 
movement for cloud services and platforms by enabling detailed user 
information for the cloud applications being accessed.
•  This contextual user information enables CASB platforms to then 
create detailed policies around accessing cloud applications based 
on custom attributes such as not allowing access to certain cloud 
applications from specific devices or users.
