Our Founding Managing Partner took a few moments at the Cisco Investments RSA Reception to share some thoughts on the exciting announcements from Cisco.
This year, RSA saw some exciting announcements by Cisco in the area of AI. Since software has "eaten the world," every company needs to think about AI not only for productivity but also for infrastructure, with security being an important component. Cisco is leading the way, and we are proud Plexo Capital is a partner with Cisco Investments. Here are some of the major announcements made by Cisco at the RSA Conference 2024: - Cisco XDR Integration with Splunk: Leveraging Splunk's broad security telemetry for enhanced threat detection after Cisco's acquisition of Splunk. - Hypershield Update: New capabilities to detect and stop attacks exploiting unknown vulnerabilities using AI to analyze process execution patterns. - Duo Security Authentication Improvements: Updates to reduce "MFA fatigue" by tracking sessions at the operating system level, eliminating the need for continual user re-authentication. - AI Assistant for Security in XDR: Introduction of an AI Assistant providing contextual insights and recommended actions within the Cisco XDR platform. - Splunk Asset and Risk Intelligence: A new offering to improve visibility into security risks by correlating data from various devices, tools, and environments. We look forward to more announcements and working with the team at Cisco Investments to find the next generation of startups for investment. #CiscoInvests #AspireFund #VentureCapital https://lnkd.in/gUrqAiPv
