Cisco Routers vs Darktrace

• Cisco routers offer networks for the WAN, the LAN and the cloud include advanced analytics, optimization security incorporated with them you can have a comprehensive and proven solution.
• They are well designed to support coherent optics to drive the convergence of optical layers, as well as systems that offer lower power consumption
• They are very reliable for networks that are constantly growing traffic with fixed or modular systems that allow handling large traffic flows
• They are quite friendly and easy-to-use computers on their different platforms, whether ios, ios xe, XR

• Monitors your network for unusual behaviour; as it learns what is normal for your network, you don't need to worry too much about things that are normal for your organisation, but might be considered odd in other places, triggering as alarms. It can also detect more subtle changes such as a device accessing a server but at an unusual time.
• There are a large number of models that are used to create the alerts, which can all be customised, and you can also create your own from scratch, to allow you to tailor it perfectly to your situation.

• Software-defined radios could be used so that both the radios could be converted into 5 GHz model to provide enhanced connectivity in network congestion scenarios.
• Support for low power IoT devices.
• Should provide more details about devices connected to the access points such as the risk score of the devices.
• Enhanced encryption algorithms and quick firmware upgrades.

• Really had a poor time of identifying devices and what the device's purpose was - a simple nmap scan did a better job. The problem is they expect you to fine-tune the results - which is exactly what you would expect - but day one it found over 2,000 servers (and I only have 112).
• Really had a hard time separating network traffic into locations - I use distinct subnets for my buildings, but there was no good way to create a logical map of my traffic internally. Did not garner a sense of trust that it was seeing everything.
• Sat through a few "analyst" reports - which showed me possible threats in my environment. I am already using a few open source tools, and they actually found more than the analyst reports. Also, there was no way to get the reports on your own - you had to work through their analysts to get the information.

• Darktrace is covering some lack of security issues.
• Darktrace helps the company to follow some compliance obligations.
• Darktrace can't solve all issues. It needs to work with other Security tools (e.g Splunk).
