Network visibility

Gain a comprehensive understanding of the traffic flows throughout the network. Top-level reports summarize traffic patterns related to users, applications, devices, and other contextual elements. Cisco Prime Security Manager also provides access to granular logs and information about the health and performance of security devices.

Granular application, user, and device control

Write and enforce granular policies based on a comprehensive set of contextual elements, including:

• Applications, micro-applications, and application behavior
• User and group identity
• Device and operating system
• Device location
• Threat profiles

Flexible Management Architecture

Use a consistent management interface for single- and multi-device management. When multiple devices are managed, all access requests are redirected to the primary manager to promote efficient centralized control. To serve a range of deployment needs, Cisco Prime Security Manager is available either as a physical appliance or as a virtual appliance based on VMware ESXi.
