    A proud moment for my team today. The Duo AI Assistant, built by my AI Assistant and AI Identity group at Cisco Duo, is now expanding to IT and security teams across Asia Pacific. Our goal from day one has been to make identity security simpler, faster, and smarter for administrators and to be a trusted partner for them along the way. Today, the Assistant does much more than troubleshoot access issues. It can interpret natural language questions to explain why authentication was denied, summarize logs, surface policy conflicts, and provide configuration guidance directly within the Duo Admin Panel. These are just a few of the capabilities available now, and they continue to grow as we expand the Assistant’s reach and intelligence. These advancements are transforming how security and IT teams work, helping them move from reactive to proactive and from data overload to clear, confident action. I’m incredibly proud of the people behind this work. They’ve built technology that strengthens human decision-making, keeps trust at the center, and sets the standard for what responsible AI should look like in security. This milestone shows what’s possible when innovation meets trust. I’m proud of how far we’ve come and even more excited for what’s next as we continue earning the confidence of our users and partners worldwide. #Cisco #DuoSecurity #AI #Cybersecurity #Leadership #Innovation #AsiaPacific

    [JUST ANNOUNCED] 📣 Cisco Reimagines Security for the Agentic Workforce. With end-to-end security across Al actions, Cisco is helping organizations confidently deploy Al agents at scale. Three key pillars build security into the foundation of the AI economy: 1. Protect the world from agents: We extended Zero Trust to AI agents through Duo Security and Secure Access. Every agent gets an identity, an owner, and only the access it needs. 2. Protect agents from the world: We launched AI Defense Explorer so developers can stress test their models against real attacks before they ship. 3. Detect and respond to AI incidents at machine speed and scale: Splunk introduced AI agents that automate detection, triage, and response in the SOC. Shout out to the teams who brought this together!

    We are announcing Duo Agentic Identity this week at RSAC! Part of the broader Cisco Zero Trust for Agents architecture to help organizations accelerate the adoption of Agentic AI without worrying about the massive risk. We've added a nice set of capabilities (some in alpha so reach out if you want to try them!). Three easy steps.... 1. Add MCP servers as protected applications 🔐 in the app catalog! You can add an MCP server just like you would any other application in Duo like SSH, RDP, OAuth, SAML resources that we already protect today. 2. Register types of MCP clients 🤖 that you expect to show up (e.g. Claude Code) and let them use those MCP servers, setting policy as you go for the tools they need, but now protected by Duo for authorization. 3. Gain visibility 🔍 in Cisco Identity Intelligence to see all your agent identities from third-party providers. Agents are everywhere from laptops to servers to virtual machines to running in AI providers, clouds, and SaaS. And oh by the way you if you don't trust your MCP servers to enforce security all on their own (you shouldn't), we support AI gateway integrations. More on that soon but your best enterprise option will be Cisco AI Defense or Cisco Secure Access which provides a built-in MCP API gateway as part of it is distributed edge architecture. Very cool. Amazing work by Duo Security and a big shout out to Colin Medfisch, Cindy Qu, Weston Andros Adamson, Jamie Pringle, Alan Pinkert and many many more folks in Duo and Cisco R&D. 🙌

  • Seeing your identity environment clearly is the first step to defending it. That's why we're partnering with SpecterOps to bring BloodHound Enterprise's attack path management approach together with Duo's comprehensive IAM platform, giving organizations a seamless, proactive defense against threats.

    ICYMI: We announced a new partnership with Duo Security, bringing BloodHound Enterprise to the Cisco Solutions Plus Marketplace. The news was underscored this week at Cisco Live! Amsterdam along with Cisco Duo's announcements. With new capabilities delivering greater visibility, insights, and protection for on-premises identity infrastructure, organizations can better close the legacy gap—especially where modern controls and MFA are difficult to apply.

    Celebrating the launch 🚀 of Duo Security AD Defense this week from #CiscoLiveEMEA in Amsterdam! Including... 1) Deep visibility into Active Directory from inside Identity Intelligence 2) Auth flow interception for protocols like LDAP, NTLM, and Kerberos 3) Our newly minted partnership with Cisco Investments company SpecterOps Auth interception is a game changer. Duo today has about 15,000 customers 🤯 who use us with protocols like LDAP and RADIUS. That requires setting up something called the authproxy and reconfiguring your applications to use the authproxy instead of AD directly. The problem? Most IT/Security teams don't know or control all their applications. The solution? Don't change the apps at all. Intercept auth flows transparently and directly on the domain controllers and insert Duo MFA ✅ right in the middle to prevent account takeover. Combine this with the visibility we get from SpecterOps Bloodhound Enterprise product and the goodness of account collection and correlation in Cisco Identity Intelligence and now you've got a robust solution for securing your Active Directory that can be deployed in minutes. ⏱️ Shout out to Iryna (Ira) Piven and Christopher Murray for leading much of this innovation and to everyone else on the team who made it happen!

  • Identity security works best when authentication and authorization work as one. That's why we're partnering with Britive to connect Duo's trusted verification at login with intelligent access control throughout your infrastructure. One identity framework. Zero compromise.

    We are proud to announce our strategic integration with Cisco Duo Security. For innovation to be limitless, security must be invisible. Legacy security tools have long been a natural bottleneck, forcing architects to choose between development velocity and structural safety. By connecting Duo’s world-class identity assurance at the front door with Britive’s Runtime Authorization, we have architected identity-related risks out of the modern enterprise. This natively unified approach allows organizations to: 🟣 Mint Ephemeral Access: Move beyond static provisioning to dynamic, task-scoped permissions that vanish the moment a task is complete. 🟣 Govern Agentic AI: Extend Zero Trust to autonomous AI actors and non-human identities across cloud, SaaS, and hybrid environments. 🟣 Eliminate the "Integration Tax": Replace disconnected security silos with a single, natively unified identity security control plane. As CEO Artyom Poghosyan notes, this is the foundation for innovation, not a bottleneck to access.

  • We love seeing comments like this one from Leonard Lee 💚 It truly reinforces our belief (as Martin Lee says): "...if just one person can learn something and maybe think slightly differently about their security posture, then we've made the world a slightly more secure and a slightly better place." If you're reading this and weren't able to attend our panel on agentic AI, the full session is available on demand here: https://lnkd.in/g_CmpnVX

    I signed up for a webinar this week by Cisco Duo regarding the challenges of securing agentic AI. I thought it may be a session hyping agentic AI and touting how easy it is to configure and deploy enterprise-grade, secure, safe, and trustworthy agentic AI. Total opposite! This is a fantastic, grounded conversation about the challenges enteprises have and will face securing their agentic AI, and the importance of not only identity management but fine-grained human and agentic RBAC, which is something I have highlighted in neXt Curve research as a major gap in security to my clients over two years now. It's still a challenge. The session is moderated by Martin Lee, Technical Lead of Security Research & Talos Lead, EMEA, featuring panelists: 👉 Matt Caulfield, VP of Product for Duo and Identity at Cisco 👉 Bilal Sheikh, Director, Corporate Information Systems, TELUS 👉 Kevin F. Fielder, CISO, NatWest Boxed & Mettle Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gy2pzdpH It's really good stuff. You need to know the problems and gaps before you start your journey toward the solution. This session gives you a great sense of the problems, gaps, and what the solutions will look like. Well done, gentlemen! #agenticai #nextcurve #cisco #safeai #trustworthyai #responsibleai #oversharing #overreliance
