There's always something new in the market to protect the network. And last week, Cisco announced its new technology called Trusted Security that combines identity and role-based security measures for enterprise networks. "Customers are demanding a highly secure way to expand their businesses and compliance policies," said Jayshree Ullal, senior vice president of the Data Center, Switching, and Security Technology Group at Cisco. The next generation of security software has an increasingly complex job as computers go mobile and global. Cisco's new software will provide a more secure arena for users. And it comes not a moment too soon. Zeus Kerravala, an analyst at Yankee Group, called Cisco TrustSec the evolution of self-protecting networks that's needed for the global and mobile world. "Identity is important not only from a security standpoint, but it will also be used to define a user's context, which includes presence and other information," Kerravala said.
