Overview
The Cisco Content Security Management Appliance (SMA) centralizes management and reporting functions across multiple Cisco web security appliances. It simplifies administration and planning, improves compliance monitoring, helps to enable consistent enforcement of policy, and enhances threat protection. Additionally, Cisco SMA simplifies administration by publishing configurations from a single management console to multiple Cisco web security appliances. You can manage updates and settings centrally on the Cisco SMA console rather than on the individual appliances.
Highlights
- With Cisco SMA, you can record individual web transactions such as IP address, username, domain name, time, and more. It also allows you to track usage of Web 2.0 applications like Facebook, YouTube, and IM. SMA can do all this, while aggregating web tracking information in real time
- There is no additional license for SMA or WSA on AWS. You can use the existing licenses from your current physical appliances or virtual appliance and deploy any number of AWS instances.
