Cisco has revealed its plans for integrating Splunk technology into its security products following the completion of their $28 billion acquisition of the analytics giant. The integration will focus on AI, security, network management, observability, and tool consolidation. One key integration is the addition of XDR capabilities from Cisco's XDR product into Splunk Enterprise Security (ES), allowing XDR alerts and detections to enhance customers' investigation and remediation efforts. Cisco also highlighted advancements in AI and machine learning across their products, launched an AI assistant for security analysts, and introduced new features for their zero-trust security product Cisco Duo. The integration marks a significant milestone in Cisco's efforts to enhance AI capabilities and provide comprehensive security solutions.
