I used to be a big fan of Cisco Secure Workload and Cisco Tetration Platform. I used to really like it. However, the product has undergone significant modifications since then. Certain pieces of it have been moved into Cisco SD-Access, and the original DVR of the network functionality has been moved. As a result, the product has changed a lot since I was most familiar with it.

Regarding features, it's quite similar to scanning tools as it catalogs vulnerabilities and identifies their locations on your endpoints within the network. It operates on an agent-based system and uses a catalog and scoring function to determine where known vulnerabilities exist.

The most valuable feature of this solution is security. We check processes on the different components of the virtual machines.

The product provides multiple-device integration.

The telemetry gives me the visibility on the particular path. It helps to analyze the whole fabric itself. I also get to know what condition we have and on which interfaces. We look at heavy traffic so we can share the particular load across to other interfaces as well.

The most valuable feature is micro-segmentation, which can be used to deploy endpoint security along with the visibility of application and connection matrix

This product is simple to deploy, and provides visibility of connectivity between the endpoints/application.

The most valuable feature is the auditing. They prove that we don't have out of scope conversations between servers that are not allowed.

The solution is very user-friendly, which clients appreciate. 

The UI and GUI are fine.

It's stable. 

We can scale the product.

Technical support is helpful and responsive. 

Secure Workload's best feature is that it's an end-to-end offering from Cisco.

The most valuable feature of the solution is that we don't have to do packet captures on the network. 

While automated micro-segmentation is in itself valuable, application dependency mapping is time-saving and efficient. 

The most valuable feature right now is to do with having visibility on the network — especially on our servers — and to be able to enforce some type of security measures. This is mostly to combat processes that shouldn't be running on the servers.

The data analytics and all the data that it gathers are very useful. It creates a fast turn around to improve the speed of decision making so we can decide what we need to do to remain secure.

Scalability is its most valuable feature.

The solution offers 100% telemetry coverage. The telemetry you collect is not sampled, it's not intermittent. It's complete. You see everything in it, including full visibility of all activities on your endpoints and in your network. 

Other valuable features include vast support for annotations, flexible user applications, machine learning, automatic classification, and hierarchical policies.
