What is Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense?

Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense provides protection against email threats that compromise an organization’s brand and operations. Its advanced threat detection capabilities uncover known, emerging and targeted threats. And it expands the scope of organizations' defenses to detect dangerous threats and rapidly search for and remediate threats across security controls.


Secure Email Threat Defense's Artificial Intelligence and machine learning models include Natural Language Processing to identify malicious techniques used in attacks targeting organizations, derive context for specific business risks, provide searchable threat telemetry, and categorize threats to understand which parts of the organization are most vulnerable to attack. Threat intelligence from Talosâ„¢ provides broader and deeper threat data that informs better and faster decision making.


Search capabilities provide access to message details that empower more informed responses. Remediating threats directly in Threat Response streamlines processes and saves time.


As part of a larger Extended Detection and Response (XDR) strategy, Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense defends against critical threats with threat intelligence, advanced threat detection capabilities and vital telemetry that informs strategic threat protection. In combination with numerous third-party integration partners and the larger Cisco Secure portfolio of products, this provides visibility, efficiency, simplicity, and telemetry to security operations.


The ability to orchestrate workflows in Cisco’s XDR solution simplifies processes reduces the burden on organizations' team so they can focus on more strategic initiatives.

  • Content filter: we can do whatever we want
  • Management with SMA
  • Possibility of producing interesting statistics from a functional but also security point of view
Cons
  • We had some problems with the antispam
  • The API part: Too few things that we can achieve whether on the esa or on the SMA
  • Let the customer decide if he wants to upgrade the antivirus & antispam engine
