Cisco ASA 5500-X Series Next-Generation Firewalls

Next-generation network security demands newer, more powerful breed of firewalls

Corporate networks are encountering the highest levels of change in history. The number and variety of mobile devices has surged, and applications have evolved to be highly dynamic and multifaceted. Combined with the increasing velocity of Internet-based threats, these trends of device proliferation, dynamic access use, and cloud have broken the legacy models of security.

This demands a new approach – one that unifies the network with security, ensures consistent protection across the enterprise, accelerates business innovation, and proactively protects months before new threats impact the business.

Introducing the Cisco ASA 5500-X Series Next-Generation Firewalls – ASA 5512-X, 5515-X, 5525-X, 5545-X and 5555-X. This smart, robust firewall series provides next-generation security capabilities and the largest threat-intelligence footprint in the industry, without requiring additional hardware modules.

An end-to-end, scalable solution

The Cisco ASA 5500-X Series appliances support services such as application visibility and control, web security essentials, intrusion prevention, remote access and cloud web security, to provide an end-to-end scalable security solution.

By integrating with Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine) and Cisco AnyConnect Mobility solution, ASA 5500-X Series firewalls deliver a comprehensive BYOD solution for high-end enterprises and small businesses alike.

What's new in the 5500-X series:

  • Website, app usage restricted based on reputation: Services such as application visibility and control and Web Security Essentials restrict web and web application usage based on reputation of the site. Through Cisco Security Intelligence Operations, these services provide web reputation that protects against zero-day threats.
  • Device awareness and user ID drive decisions: Cisco Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) is the only context-aware IPS that uses device awareness, network reputation of the source, target value, and user identity to drive mitigation decisions, and provides a proactive protection against threats. Cisco IPS for ASA also provides HIPAA, PCI and NERC CIP compliance.
  • Firewall throughput scales: A four-fold increase in firewall throughput protects users as their current and future data-consumption demands increase.
  • Protection from power outages: Redundant power supplies (on the ASA 5545-X and 5555-X appliances) protect against power outages.
  • Increased performance: Multicore enterprise-class CPUs deliver better performance.
  • More flexibility: Additional copper and small form-factor, pluggable Gigabit Ethernet ports provide greater flexibility for network configuration.
  • Unmatched web security: Cisco Cloud Web Security provides unmatched web security and application visibility and control for organizations of all sizes through a network of global and redundant data centers.
  • Seamless, secure remote access: Cisco AnyConnect enables seamless, secure remote access by providing an always-on, secure connectivity experience.
