Cisco customers achieve increased visibility and control for iOS devices San Jose, Calif., – December 14, 2017– Today, Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) announces the availability of Cisco® Security Connector, the first security app designed to give enterprises the deepest visibility and control over network activity on iOS devices, now in the App Store. Apple has designed iOS to be secure from the ground up and to be simple, intuitive, and powerful for users. By using iPhones and iPads with iOS 11 and Cisco Security Connector, customers can view and control network activity and gain insight into traffic generated by users, applications and devices. Several key Cisco customers trialed the Cisco Security Connector app. They reported benefits such as:
Workers and organizations are embracing the mobile workplace, with more than 70 percent[1] of organizations providing enterprise-issued tablets and smartphones. Organizations require visibility into what is happening with the corporate data on their devices to meet risk and compliance needs. Cisco developed the Cisco Security Connector app on iOS 11 to offer organizations fine-grained visibility into network access on enterprise-supervised iOS devices. It offers security functionality from Cisco Umbrella™ and Cisco Clarity in a single app. It can be deployed on enterprise-supervised iOS devices using a mobile device management (MDM) solution such as the Cisco Meraki™ Systems Manager. “Ransomware and malware are spreading across the Internet and increasingly targeting mobile devices. Together with Apple, we are helping enterprises become the most connected, collaborative, and secure businesses in the world,” said David Ulevitch, senior vice president and general manager of Cisco’s Security Business Group. “With this app, we want to provide businesses with tools to meet their security, risk, and compliance requirements.” Supporting quotes from Cisco beta customers:
