Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Umbrella

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

My
organization uses Cisco Umbrella as a layer of protection for users accessing
Internet. We used the native embedded classification of malicious URLs but also
to monitor who is attempting to connect to theses URLs. In addition, we use our
internal threat Intel feeds to enrich the umbrella URL classification. To identify
affected endpoints and users. The solution is integrated with our AD solution
and our DDI platform

Pros and Cons

Pros

URL classification
Integration with DDI and AD
blacklisting/whitelisting

Cons

Better integration with non Cisco Products

Return on Investment

Avoid Operational cost of deploying, a administering and patching a scalable High available platform
