What is Cisco Secure Endpoint?

Cisco Secure Endpoint is a comprehensive, cloud-managed endpoint security solution designed to protect devices from advanced malware and cyber threats throughout the entire attack lifecycle—before, during, and after an attack.

The solution provides deep visibility and advanced detection through Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and integrated Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities, enabling rapid threat hunting, investigation, and response with enriched global threat intelligence from Cisco Talos.

Cisco Secure Endpoint supports a wide range of devices including laptops, desktops, servers, mobile devices, and virtual workloads. It is a core component of Cisco’s broader security architecture, including the Breach Protection Suite and User Protection Suite, and is designed to simplify security operations while improving efficacy and resilience against evolving threats.
