Advantex is proud to announce that we have achieved the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Specialisation. This significant milestone demonstrates our exceptional proficiency in deploying, managing, and optimising Cisco’s Identity Services Engine, a leading secure access control platform trusted by over 17,000 organisations worldwide.
Cisco ISE is designed to ensure that only authorised users and devices can access a network’s infrastructure. The platform’s robust capabilities extend beyond basic access control, providing detailed insights into user and device activities. This information is crucial for delivering context-aware security measures that can be integrated with other network and security solutions.
By gathering and analysing user and device details, Cisco ISE enables organisations to implement precise segmentation policies. These policies, enforced through Cisco TrustSec’s software-defined segmentation, enhance the security posture of network environments, reducing the risk of unauthorised access and potential breaches.
A recent independent analysis by Forrester Consulting examined five organisations using Cisco ISE. The commissioned study, “The Total Economic Impact™ of Cisco Identity Service Engine (ISE),” highlighted that ISE delivered a 50% reduction in access-related security events, a 191% return on investment (ROI), and an 11-month payback period.
The benefits of Cisco ISE also include enhanced network security, streamlined access management, improved compliance, increased operational efficiency, and advanced visibility into network activity.
With its new specialisation, Advantex is poised to deliver unparalleled secure access solutions to its clients. The company has invested heavily in training and certifying its team to ensure they can leverage the full capabilities of Cisco ISE. This dedication ensures that Advantex’s partners benefit from the most advanced security protocols available.
“Our achievement of the Cisco ISE Specialisation is a testament to our team’s hard work and our commitment to providing top-tier security solutions,” said Steve O’Connell, Director of Advantex. “As cyber threats continue to evolve, it is crucial that we equip our clients with the best tools to protect their networks. Cisco ISE is a cornerstone of our security strategy, allowing us to deliver comprehensive, context-aware security solutions.”
