More than ever modern cybersecurity leaders need to strengthen their protection for their remote users with advanced cloud security.
Cisco Umbrella provides always-on security on and off the corporate network.
If you're an existing Cisco Umbrella customer, you're already familiar with the robust protection it provides.
We are excited to announce updates to our roaming protection experience.
We've heard your feedback on the Umbrella Roaming Client and we've developed the Umbrella Roaming Security Module as part of Cisco Secure Client to address these needs.
If you haven't already done so, now is the time to prepare to migrate from the stand-alone Umbrella Roaming Client to Cisco Secure Client for a significantly better roaming experience.
The strong Domain Name System-layer security you've come to expect from Umbrella, plus even more capabilities in a single agent, like Umbrella Secure Web Gateway protection, depending upon the Umbrella subscription purchased.
Improved third-party software VPN and DNS compatibility.
With Cisco Secure Client, you'll get a simplified experience and improved security capabilities such an enhanced VPN interoperability, and an efficient pathway to ZTNA/VPNaaS, with evolution to Cisco Secure Access, if you are on an SSE journey.
We recommend that you schedule and plan your migration to Cisco Secure Client now and take advantage of significant improvements in your user and support experience.
Please note that Cisco will provide new features and innovations in Cisco Secure Client only moving forward.
All customers with valid licenses and active Umbrella support contracts are eligible to migrate to Cisco Secure Client for entitlement to the Umbrella Roaming Security Module, which includes all the Umbrella Roaming Client capability, at no charge.
Strengthen your security posture with extended capabilities.
Secure Client is a single installer, providing an efficient path to integrated multifunction security - encompassing DNS, SWG, VPN, ZTNA, and EDR. Thus, the transition is not simply an update; it's an upgrade to superior security capabilities and a platform security approach.
When you have need for Zero Trust Network Access meet it with Cisco Secure Access, the evolution of Umbrella featuring differentiated ZTNA, and VPN capability.
Umbrella technology powers secure connectivity to the internet for all Cisco SSE solutions.
If you're an existing Umbrella SIG customer requiring ZTNA, stay tuned for a special upgrade program that will be announced shortly.
Please review our early announcement for further details about the Umbrella Roaming Client end of life.
