In today’s fast-evolving, AI-driven hybrid and multi-cloud landscape, protecting sensitive data across channels is a critical concern for enterprises everywhere. Security isn’t just about adding new tools—it’s about making them work seamlessly together, reducing complexity, and delivering results.

Many organizations rely on Microsoft Purview as the foundation for data classification and data loss prevention policies. But as they deploy Cisco Secure Access to protect web and cloud traffic, they face a familiar challenge: policy fragmentation. Security teams need to manually duplicate policies across platforms, resulting in inconsistent enforcement, increased operational burden, and heightened risk.

We believe security should empower, not encumber, your teams.

Cisco is excited to announce a new phase in our collaboration with Microsoft—bringing Purview’s robust data classification and data loss prevention capabilities directly into Cisco Secure Access. As one of the early partners in this Purview ecosystem initiative, Cisco Secure Access will extend the enforcement of Purview data loss prevention policies to web traffic.

  • Unified Policy Enforcement: Apply  trusted policies from Purview to web traffic managed by Cisco Secure Access, ensuring consistent protection across email, endpoints, cloud apps, and the web.
  • Effortless Onboarding: No more re-building complex rules. Cisco Secure Access syncs with your Purview environment, streamlining deployment and accelerating your zero-trust journey.
  • High Performance for Seamless User Experience: The Cisco Secure Access and Purview integration is purpose-built to deliver fast, reliable protection with minimal latency—ensuring security measures operate efficiently in the background without disrupting user productivity.

This integration goes beyond technical innovation—it reflects a shared vision for open, interoperable security ecosystems. By combining Cisco’s Security Service Edge (SSE) platform with Microsoft’s  data security, we help customers minimize complexity, enhance visibility, and strengthen defenses against evolving threats.

Stop by the Security Showcase: Future-proof Workplaces zone – Safeguard GenAI Usage/Secure Access station (FPW-41) to get more information on this integration.
