Cisco Systems Nigeria has unveiled intent-based networking
solutions that represent one of the most significant breakthroughs in
enterprise networking, reports ITRealms.
The introduction, ITRealms
reports culminates with Cisco’s vision to create an intuitive system that
anticipates actions, stops security threats in their tracks, and continues to
evolve and learn. It will help businesses to unlock new opportunities and solve
previously unsolvable challenges in an era of increasing connectivity and
distributed technology.
This new network is the result of years of research and development
by Cisco to reinvent networking for an age where network engineers managing
hundreds of devices today will be expected to manage 1 million by 2020.
“The network has never been more critical to business
success, but it’s also never been under more pressure,” said Chuck Robbins,
chief executive officer for Cisco. “By building a more intuitive network, we
are creating an intelligent platform with unmatched security for today and for
the future that propels businesses forward and creates new opportunities for
people and organizations everywhere.”
Today companies are managing their networks through traditional
IT processes that are not sustainable in this new age. Cisco’s approach creates
an intuitive system that constantly learns, adapts, automates and protects, to
optimize network operations and defend against today’s evolving threat
landscape.
“Cisco’s Encrypted Traffic Analytics solves a network
security challenge previously thought to be unsolvable,” said Olakunle
Oloruntimehin, General Manager of Cisco Nigeria. “ETA uses Cisco’s Talos cyber
intelligence to detect known attack signatures even in encrypted traffic,
helping to ensure security while maintaining privacy.”
With the vast majority of the world’s internet traffic
running on Cisco networks, the company has used its unique position to capture
and analyze this immensely valuable data by providing IT with insights to spot
anomalies and anticipate issues in real time, without compromising privacy. By
automating the edge of the network and embedding machine learning and analytics
at a foundational level, Cisco is making the unmanageable manageable and
allowing IT to focus on strategic business needs.
Already several leading global enterprises and organizations
are conducting field trials with these next-generation networking solutions,
including NASA and Accenture.
