Cisco announces
latest software for its
Tetration Analytics
C
isco has announced
that Cisco Tetration
Analytics now automates
policy enforcement, enabling
organisations to build secure
environments for their business
applications and also expands
Tetration with new deployment
options. Building on Tetration’s
original discovery and visibility
capabilities, Cisco’s latest software
for Tetration Analytics now provides
the industry’s first consistent
security policy enforcement applied
holistically across each application.
Policy is enforced regardless of
where the application resides:

virtual, bare metal, physical servers,
or in private or public clouds, across
any vendor’s infrastructure. This
new enforcement model binds
policies to workload characteristics
and behaviours while ensuring that
the policy stays intact even as the
workload moves.
“Enterprises worldwide are
adopting multi-cloud strategies to
realise their objectives for digital
transformation, but these present
ongoing challenges related to
visibility and security. Although
80% of security spending is
focused on the perimeter, only
20% of the breaches occur
there. IT organisations are
often under siege by a mix of
elevated expectations and a
rising tide of security threats,
not to mention the need to
show ongoing improvements in
operational efficiencies,” said
Osama Al-Zoubi, Chief Technology
Officer, Cisco Middle East. “Cisco
Tetration Analytics addresses
these challenges through
pervasive visibility and application
segmentation, which is designed to
bolster security-policy enforcement
across hybrid application
environments.”
