Between constant national-security compliance updates, the increase in cybersecurity incidents, and the need for cleared personnel to remotely access network resources such as applications or sensitive data, there had to be a solution available that balances user accessibility with security and compliance. This prompted the creation of Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud (GCC) just a few years back — a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that securely runs Microsoft Office applications in the cloud that meets rigid compliance and security requirements set for government agencies and their contractors. Some of the GCC compliance frameworks include Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 7012, Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High, and the Department of Defense (DoD) Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) , and the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 . A short time later, however, to provide expanded compliance capabil...

The railway industry is increasingly embracing new systems and technologies to enhance operational efficiency, safety, and connectivity. As operators move on from their legacy systems, there is an ever-increasing number of connections and complexity to deal with from a security standpoint. Expanded connectivity means increased chances for cyber criminals to disrupt critical infrastructure and global economies. Threats have gone from simple hacks to sophisticated attacks for financial gain, disruption, and espionage. The world’s critical infrastructure – power grids, healthcare systems, food industries, and transportation – can and have been disrupted by cyberattacks. At Cisco, we’re listening and working alongside rail operators, governments, and our networks to map out a digital future with trust at its foundation. Enterprise Architecture Approach An enterprise architecture approach and zero trust framework is recommended to think more holistically about how components in a networ...

Did you ever want to run Cisco Modeling Labs but did not have the hardware or software to do so? Or have you wanted to run a topology on your local deployment—but couldn’t because you did not have enough memory available locally? What about integrating CML into a CI/CD pipeline , which includes the creation and destruction of the entire pipeline, including CML? You might think one answer to these problems would be to use CML in the cloud. And you’d be right. However, up until recently, the only supported platforms to run CML were either on bare metal servers or on VMware vSphere. We have heard requests to have CML Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) , and we’re working hard to make this a reality in the future. Our first step in this direction is to provide tooling and automation so you can deploy your CML instance into Amazon Web Services (AWS)! This tooling is available as of today on GitHub . Setting expectations With this first step of automation and tooling comes a few limitations, i...

This blog was written by Annika Mammen, former User Experience Engineer at Cisco There are so many areas to consider when dealing with protecting and detecting threats, unfortunately cognitive overload is one problem that is often overlooked. Remember when search engines had a million news articles, reading suggestions, and market analysis on the home page. Users had to sift through the mountain of information and decide what was the best source for them. This is a prime example of cognitive overload, and this is something most SOC analysts know too well. Too many options and complex steps make users feel frustrated and confused. Their brain is being given too much information to process and gets overwhelmed. When Google came on the scene with a single search bar, users flocked to it because it changed the game. It helped organize data and surfaced up the most relevant pieces of information. The single search bar on the page made it very easy for users to understand what they had to d...
