The expanded platform gives enterprises an alternative to deploying and managing separate Cisco products for secure access, internet security, AI security and remote connectivity. Enterprise security has reached a point of diminishing returns. Every new threat produces another product, policy layer, license and console. AI security threatens to make that sprawl worse. Cloudbrink is taking the opposite approach by extending one policy and enforcement architecture to people and machines instead of adding another security silo. “Cisco has spent years asking customers to solve secure access by adding another product,” said Prakash Mana, CEO of Cloudbrink. “Umbrella, AnyConnect, Secure Access and now AI Defense may all carry the Cisco logo, but enterprises still have to think about multiple technologies, policies and operating models. We took the opposite approach: one software platform, one policy framework, and one experience for the user. OnGuard now extends that model beyond the user to the machine. We believe a single Cloudbrink platform can eliminate a significant portion of the Cisco secure-access stack.” Cloudbrink OnGuard allows enterprises to manage security, visibility, and user connectivity experience with one platform. Traditional remote-access security typically begins with a user session. OnGuard allows Cloudbrink policy enforcement to begin when the device itself comes online—even before a user logs in—and continue independently of the user session. Now Cloudbrink customers can apply a single configuration for all use cases of ZTNA, QOE, SWG, AI Security, multi-cloud connectivity, and digital experience monitoring. Cloudbrink high-performance QOE and all security controls now extend to all devices, machines, and apps, alongside users, enabling customers to secure and improve performance uniformly for all corporate assets. Cloudbrink OnGuard features include: <ul type="disc"><li>Instant OnGuard Availability and Policy Enforcement: Cloudbrink secure overlay tunnels are now available separate from user context tunnels, ensuring that a Cloudbrink secure tunnel is available as soon as the machine comes online. No user intervention is necessary to start security policy enforcement.</li><li>Admin Authorization: Admin authorization can be required before any policy is enforced.</li><li>Admin Session Termination: Similarly, admins can block or terminate machine tunnels as needed.</li><li>Centralized Visibility: Visibility into user and machine activity on a single console so customers can correlate and triage any issues very quickly.</li><li>Selective Policy Control: Flexibility to enforce multiple policies for machine tunnels including Internet Security, AI Security, ZTNA access controls as well as Cloudbrink QOE. </li></ul> In addition to securing assets, minimizing cost, and increasing ROI, consolidating security policy enforcement for users and machines on a single Cloudbrink platform means customers can ensure consistent policy enforcement across users and machines, and meet regulatory compliance requirements. The expansion builds on Cloudbrink deployments already replacing legacy Cisco remote-access infrastructure. At one U.S. insurance company, Cloudbrink replaced an environment that included Cisco AnyConnect and Fortinet. The organization moved 300 employees on the first day and more than 600 during the first week, while remote-connectivity support calls subsequently “pretty much disappeared,” according to its VP of IT. About Cloudbrink Cloudbrink delivers a high-performance secure connectivity solution that significantly enhances productivity for the work-from-anywhere generation. The Personal SASE service (which includes high-performance ZTNA) offers up to a 30-fold increase in network performance and ensures a secure, seamless, in-office experience for employees, no matter where they are. With a focus on speed, simplicity, security, and savings, Cloudbrink streamlines management and support while providing edge-native zero-trust access for users and devices for simplified operations, reduced complexity, and fewer support calls.
