In an increasingly hybrid and cloud-centric work environment, traditional network security is no longer sufficient. Organizations require secure, flexible access along with end-to-end visibility into the digital user experience—spanning everything from endpoints and corporate networks to cloud and SaaS applications. This session explores how Cisco Secure Access, Meraki, and Catalyst work together to simplify and secure modern network and security architectures. Additionally, we will demonstrate how ThousandEyes Network Assurance provides critical insights into performance, availability, and dependencies across both internal and external networks. We will focus on current customer challenges, the roadmap to an integrated Secure Networking approach, and practical examples for achieving greater transparency and control. Through a live demo, you will see how organizations can detect disruptions faster, isolate root causes more effectively, and sustainably elevate the digital experience for their users.
