Cisco Secure Firewall implement deep inspection without decryption what is a very important solution to detect some kind of attack without compromise performance and other management like certificate operations and renewal processes what it is usually complex and very time consuming. Thus extra security detection gives an upper level of protection.
Cisco services and tac always respond in a quick manner and provides deep analysis and solutions. Interaction can be complex in order to be able to know our existing environment and its specific design what cause in a delay of the solution. But can be solved with additional layer of services that of course has an extra cost
Yes once infrastructure is in place it starts a journey to operate and maintain what imply a very important tasks to understand security incidents and be able to analyse and correlate this information is basic to security. It is not enough to send all log to a lake but analysis and detection is a mandatory step
