With our return to the workplace, organizations are finding an outdated and unsupported network infrastructure. Your customers are also returning to a reality, where the only thing more distributed than the data and applications that power organizational outcomes, are the users trying to access them.

The firewall has always been a critical part of protecting the integrity of the business from the unpredictable, so we are pleased to announce that Secure Firewall 3105 joins the 3100 Series family, making hybrid work efficient for more environments. Cisco's Secure Firewall 3105 can protect users and networks without sacrificing speed, performance or convivence.
