From a security perspective, our organization is much stronger in the email domain. We have effectively monitored spam patterns, and with the rise of phishing in recent years, our capabilities have further improved. This has been beneficial for our organization since we can identify and prevent specific types of phishing emails. We have the ability to customize certain aspects ourselves, which has also aided our organization. Additionally, relying solely on users to make secure decisions regarding phishing emails is not always reliable. Asking non-security personnel to make security-related choices can be risky. Therefore, Cisco Secure Email has been instrumental in relieving users of this responsibility. By implementing specific metrics and criteria, we can intercept and block such emails, allowing the system to handle the workload. Although the process requires some manual intervention on our part, it is acceptable considering our large user base of 9,000 individuals. Cisco Secure Email has played a crucial role in shouldering this burden and has greatly benefited our organization

A lot of our customers use another Cisco product already, so they have confidence in Cisco products. The firewalls they are currently deploying and using have evolved from their older ASA products. They are now moving to the new Firepower Threat Defense, which incorporates many more features and allows them to get the latest ALOFT download and feeds for any security vulnerabilities and they're able to react very quickly to any vulnerabilities that have been highlighted.
