Building a Secure and Agile Network for Your Modern Enterprise
The Foundation for Cisco's Intent-Based Network
Software-Defined Access is part of the DNA (Digital Network Architecture) platform.
Built on the principles of intent-based networking, SD-Access helps organizations enable policy-based automation from the edge to the cloud. It gives network architects the tools to orchestrate key business functions like onboarding, secure segmentation, IoT integration, and guest access.
SD-Access automates user and device policy for any application across the wireless and wired network via a single network fabric. It is a transformational shift. It allows IT to set network access in minutes for any user, device, or application, without compromising on security.
