Overview
As you migrate your workloads from physical appliance to public cloud infrastructure, you need the same kind of secure web as offered by physical appliances.
With Cisco's Secure Web Appliance (aka Web Security Appliance) on AWS, you can safeguard your business through broad threat intelligence, multiple layers of malware defense, and vital data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities across the attack continuum.
Secure Web Appliance plays an important role in overall Cisco security solution architecture.
With existing integrations with Advanced Malware Protection, SecureX, Identity Service Engine, Umbrella it eases out the tasks for network and security admins to deploy and operate these solutions in the network.
Highlights
- With Secure Web Appliance, you can assess files using the latest threat information from Cisco Talos. Cisco Secure Web captures a fingerprint of each file as it traverses the gateway and sends it to Cisco's cloud based threat intelligence network for a reputation verdict.
- You can identify malware and breaches as they affect your system. When malware is detected, AMP gets precise details about a file's behavior and combines that data with detailed human and machine analysis to determine the file's threat level in a sandbox
- Centralized management and reporting is also available via SMA. You can deploy SMA along with WSA on the AWS environment. There is no additional license for SMA or WSA on AWS. You can use the existing licenses from your physical appliances and deploy any number of instances

Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
