Overview:

Most next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) focus heavily on enabling application control, but little on their threat defense capabilities. To compensate, some NGFW’s will try to supplement their first-generation intrusion prevention with a series of non-integrated add-on products. However, this approach does little to protect your business against the risks posed by sophisticated attackers and advanced malware. Further, once you do get infected, they offer no assistance in scoping the infection, containing it, and remediating quickly.

What you need is an integrated, threat-centric next-generation firewall. One that not only delivers granular application control, but also provides effective security against the threats posed by sophisticated and evasive malware attacks.

The Cisco Firepower Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) is the industry’s first fully integrated, threat-focused NGFW. It delivers comprehensive, unified policy management of firewall functions, application control, threat prevention, and advanced malware protection from the network to the endpoint.

It can be deployed on Cisco Firepower 2100 Series, 4100 Series, and 9300 appliances to provide a performance and density optimized NGFW security platform for Internet edge and other high-performance environments.

Protect Your Organization Before, During, and After an Attack

The Cisco Firepower NGFW includes the industry’s most widely deployed stateful firewall and provides granular control over more than 4,000 commercial applications. Its single management interface delivers unified visibility from the network to the endpoint. Firepower NGFW enables comprehensive policy management that controls access, stops attacks, defends against malware and provides integrated tools to track, contain and recover from attacks that do get through.

The Cisco Firepower NGFW is unique in the industry because it is the only next-generation firewall that:

  • Provides a next-generation intrusion prevention system (NGIPS) to deliver industry-leading threat protection
  • Includes a fully integrated advanced malware protection (AMP) solution that addresses both known and unknown threats, along with an integrated sandbox
  • Gives you the ability to track and contain malware infections
  • Automatically correlates threat events with your network’s vulnerabilities so you can focus your resources on the threats that matter most
  • Analyzes your network’s weaknesses and recommends the best security policies to put in place
  • Integrates with a number of Cisco network security products to take advantage of your previous investments and provide stronger security

Benefits

  • Stop more threats - both known and unknown - with the industry’s most effective threat protection
  • Gain more insight into and control over the users, applications, devices, threats, and vulnerabilities in your network
  • Detect earlier and act faster by shrinking malware time to detection from months down to hours and enable quicker remediation
  • Reduce Complexity and simplify your operations by consolidating all security functions into a single management interface
  • Get more from your network by integrating with other Cisco security and network solutions

Features:

  • Stop more threats
    Contain known and unknown malware with leading Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) and sandboxing.
  • Gain more insight
    Gain superior visibility into your environment with Cisco Firepower next-gen IPS. Automated risk rankings and impact flags identify priorities for your team.
  • Detect earlier, act faster
    The Cisco Annual Security Report identifies a 100-day median time from infection to detection, across enterprises. Reduce this time to less than a day.
  • Reduce complexity
    Get unified management and automated threat correlation across tightly integrated security functions, including application firewalling, NGIPS, and AMP.
  • Get more from your network
    Enhance security, and take advantage of your existing investments, with optional integration of other Cisco and third-party networking and security solutions.

The Cisco Firepower NGFW includes Application Visibility and Control (AVC), optional Next-Gen IPS (NGIPS), Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for Networks, and URL Filtering. The Cisco Firepower 4100 Series appliances use the Cisco Firepower Threat Defense software image. Alternatively, Cisco Firepower 4100 Series appliances can support the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) software image.

Management Options

Cisco Firepower NGFWs may be managed in a variety of ways depending on the way you work, your environment, and your needs.

The Cisco Firepower Management Center (formerly FireSIGHT) provides centralized management of the Cisco Firepower NGFW, the Cisco Firepower NGIPS, and Cisco AMP for Networks. It also provides threat correlation for network sensors and Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for Endpoints.

The Cisco Firepower Device Manager is available for local management of 2100 Series and select 5500-X Series devices running the Cisco Firepower Threat Defense software image.

The Cisco Adaptive Security Device Manager is available for local management of the Cisco Firepower 2100 Series, 4100 Series, Cisco Firepower 9300 Series, and Cisco ASA 5500-X Series devices running the ASA software image.

Cisco Defense Orchestrator cloud-based management is also available for consistent policy management across Cisco security devices running the ASA software image, enabling greater management efficiency for the distributed enterprise.

Firepower DDoS Mitigation

The Cisco Firepower 9300 is a scalable (beyond 1 Tbps when clustered), carrier-grade, modular platform designed for service providers, high-performance computing centers, large data centers, campuses, high-frequency trading environments, and other environments that require low (less than 5-microsecond offload) latency and exceptional throughput. Cisco Firepower 9300 supports flow-offloading, programmatic orchestration, and the management of security services with RESTful APIs. It is also available in Network Equipment Building Standards (NEBS)-compliant configurations.

Cisco Firepower NGFW Virtual (NGFWv) Appliances

The Cisco Firepower 9300 Series is a family of four threat-focused NGFW security platforms. Their throughput range addresses data center and internet edge use cases. They deliver superior threat defense, at faster speeds, with a smaller footprint. Cisco Firepower 4100 Series supports flow-offloading, programmatic orchestration, and the management of security services with RESTful APIs. Network Equipment Building Standards (NEBS)-compliance is supported by the Cisco Firepower 4120 platform.

Cisco Trust Anchor Technologies

Cisco Trust Anchor Technologies provide a highly secure foundation for certain Cisco products. They enable hardware and software authenticity assurance for supply chain trust and strong mitigation against a man-in-the-middle compromise of software and firmware.

Trust Anchor capabilities include:

  • Image signing: Cryptographically signed images provide assurance that the firmware, BIOS, and other software are authentic and unmodified. As the system boots, the system’s software signatures are checked for integrity.
  • Secure Boot: Secure Boot anchors the boot sequence chain of trust to immutable hardware, mitigating threats against a system’s foundational state and the software that is to be loaded, regardless of a user’s privilege level. It provides layered protection against the persistence of illicitly modified firmware.
  • Trust Anchor module: A tamper-resistant, strong-cryptographic, single-chip solution provides hardware authenticity assurance to uniquely identify the product so that its origin can be confirmed to Cisco, providing assurance that the product is genuine.
