As cloud adoption continues to grow – buoyed by the explosion of new technology like AI – security teams must find a way to keep pace with the industry’s rapid rate of change, minimizing risk without hindering innovation. The solution is to embrace a new operating model that promotes collaboration, builds shared context, and democratizes security across teams. The result: no more siloes, just holistic security that moves at the pace of cloud.

Those principles are the foundation for the latest development in our strategic collaboration with Cisco, which will be enhanced thanks to deeper integrations between our product offerings. Customers will benefit from Cisco’s renowned network security leadership and Wiz’s cloud security capabilities, ultimately improving overall security for enterprises that are contending with an evolving threat landscape.

“This collaboration combines the best of both worlds,” said Raj Chopra, SVP and Chief Product officer of Cisco Security. “Wiz innovations like the Security Graph provide straightforward, context-driven insights into critical exposure. Cisco’s Hybrid Mesh Firewall provides a fabric of optimal enforcement points that makes it easy for organizations to reduce attack surface, prevent compromise, and stop lateral movement in the data center, campus, and cloud environments. Together, we are helping to enable security teams for the cloud era.”

Wiz is driven by a desire to help customers prioritize and resolve issues where it matters most. Cisco’s commitment to protecting applications in real-time and guarding AI systems against emerging threats fit perfectly into our mission of creating a robust security ecosystem that swiftly identifies and mitigates risks in cloud applications. Our unified vision will leverage each company’s strengths to make it even easier to stay secure in the digital age.
