The application visibility and control are pretty good. It seems to do everything we've ever needed it to do.

The application visibility and control with Cisco Secure Firewall is pretty great. We have the FTD, the firewall threat defense, and FMC, the management console we use, and we have great visibility using that product.

I like the application visibility and control with Cisco Secure Firewall. My only complaint is that the changes made in the GUI sometimes do not reflect in the command line.

The visibility with FMC is excellent. Being able to have, for instance, a data center core firewall, an internet edge firewall, and a VPN concentrator device managed by the same FMC and being able to take all of that information and see it in one place is very beneficial from the security posture standpoint. It's a time saver because it makes things easy. I can log in and very easily see what my detected threats are, what's been happening over the last 24 hours, or if there's anything I need to be concerned about. Being able to see who's logging into the VPN, but also what traffic are they sending, what are they bringing back, and being able to have all that in one place is really nice. The integration between the FMC and endpoints is a nice feature and a big time saver in terms of remediating threats and remediating malware and other malicious software.

Cisco Secure Firewalls' application visibility and control are beneficial because they provide a management console that allows us to view logging and sessions.

Cisco Secure Firewall is a Layer 7 next-generation firewall, providing us with a significant amount of visibility into our traffic patterns and the traffic passing through the firewall. It informs us about the zones that facilitate a smooth data flow, where the data is being directed, and covers ingress and egress all the way up to layer seven. Therefore, I believe the visibility it offers is excellent.
