Cisco SIO iPhone application to hit the App Store soon

iPhone owners can now access global security information from anywhere by means of the latest Cisco SIO To Go app. The app also allows users to personalize alerts and show only those security threats which could impact their network.

The new Cisco SIO To Go iPhone application presents IT staff with efficient means to obtain alerts and reply to threats that can affect their operations. The app is driven by Cisco Security IntelliShield Alert Manager
Service and delivers early warning intelligence, threat vulnerability and proven Cisco mitigation solutions to users’ iPhones as they arise. The Cisco application also provides unique IP and URL address, e-mail and Web reputation look-up powered by the Cisco IronPort SenderBase Security Network and the Cisco SIO.

“Enabling borderless networks is critical for today’s business success. A key component of enabling individuals to connect to their business networks from anywhere is working to ensure that the network is protected regardless of the device used. Our new Cisco SIO To Go iPhone application is another important step in making this vision a reality. It improves the means by which IT departments are alerted to threats, and it provides added confidence and device flexibility as Cisco customers are shielded from these breaches”, remarked Marie Hattar, vice president, Network Systems Solutions Marketing, Cisco,

Cisco SIO is inclusive of Cisco SensorBase, Cisco Threat Operations Center and Dynamic Updates. The SensorBase, a threat-monitoring network captures global threat telemetry data from an extensive footprint of Cisco devices and services. The alerts delivered include Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) alerts, Cisco Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) Signatures, Cisco Applied Mitigation Bulletins, Cisco Threat Outbreak Alerts and others.

The Cisco SIO iPhone application will be made available for free at the Apple iTunes Store shortly.
