Who we are?

Cisco Next Generation FirePower Threat Defence (FTD) is the flagship product from Security Business Group (SBG). FTD integrates award-winning ASA Firewall services and world's best & well known IPS engine SNORT into a high-performance appliance. FirePower Management Center (FMC) and Cloud FMC (aka cdFMC : SAAS avatar of FMC) provides the management capability for the FTDs, which makes customers life much easier.
