ASA 5525-x Next Generation Firewall
Cisco ASA 5500-X Series Next Generation Firewalls
The Cisco ASA 5512-X, 5515-X, 5525-X, 5545-X, and 5555-X are next-generation firewalls that combine the most widely deployed stateful inspection firewall in the industry with a comprehensive suite of next-generation network security services - for comprehensive security without compromise. They provide multiple security services and redundant power supplies and enable consistent security enforcement throughout the organization. In addition to comprehensive stateful inspection firewall capabilities, optional features include integrated cloud- and software-based security services - Cisco Application Visibility and Control (AVC), Cisco Web Security Essentials (WSE), Cisco Cloud Web Security (CWS), and IPS. Cisco Next-Generation Firewalls are managed by Cisco Prime Security Manger. These models range in their performance and throughput capabilities not only in the hardware platforms but also in the services and number of users that can be supported on each model. Depending on the customer requirements and performance needs, they can be deployed at small office, Internet edge, and even data center locations.
This series of next-generation firewalls is built on the same proven security platform as the rest of the ASA Family of firewalls and delivers exceptional application visibility and control along with superior performance and operational efficiency. These firewalls provide next-generation services that make it possible to take advantage of new applications and devices without compromising security. Unlike other firewalls, the Cisco ASA 5500-X Series keeps pace with rapidly evolving needs by offering end-to-end network intelligence gained from combining the visibility of local traffic with in-depth global network intelligence. The Cisco ASA 5500-X Series is supported by:
● Cisco AnyConnect® Secure Mobility Solution for unique mobile client insight
● Cisco SIO for near-real-time threat information and proactive protection
