Secure Your Branch and Remote Offices
Enterprise-level risks in today’s branch offices require enterprise-level security. While you deal with BYOD, compliance requirements, and the increasing use of direct Internet access (DIA) in your distributed sites, you also have to defend them against advanced persistent threats.
You can do that by using Cisco’s industry-leading threat protection capabilities, which now run on an additional platform: Cisco Integrated Services Routers (ISRs). Cisco FirePOWER Threat Defense for ISR extends enterprise-level threat protection beyond traditional network edge and data center deployments to help protect your DIA traffic.
Now you can capitalize on the cost savings and improved user experiences of branch DIA, while better protecting devices and hosts against advanced threats wherever they reside: in branches, partner locations, and other remote sites.
Benefits

Aim for ‘Security Everywhere’
Cisco FirePOWER Threat Defense for ISR is a component of the Cisco “security everywhere” strategy. The goal is to give you the continuous visibility and control you need to defeat advanced threats across your environment. A integrated set of security features work together to help keep your remote operations secure:
FirePOWER Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System (NGIPS) sets the standard for advanced threat protection, integrating realtime contextual awareness, intelligent security automation, and industry leading threat prevention.
Application Visibility and Control shrinks the potential attack surface through precise control of thousands of applications and by enforcing mobile app, social media app, and acceptable use policies.
Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for Networks protects against highly sophisticated, targeted, zero-day attacks and persistent advanced malware threats.
Reputation-based URL Filtering mitigates sophisticated client-side attacks by controlling access to more than 280 million URLs in more than 80 categories, minimizing risks associated with suspicious and unacceptable domains.
