Mergers and Acquisitions

Cisco announces its intent to acquire Smartlook Inc, s.r.o. It represents a big step forward in delivering even more value for Cisco AppDynamics and the Full-Stack Observability Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM) solution, with new application and user experience insights, analytics, and troubleshooting capabilities.

Cisco Emerging Technologies & Incubation (ET&I) intends to bolster its cloud-native portfolio with Lightspin focused on end-to-end security and observability.

Through decades of acquisitions, Cisco has gained the expertise and experience to make M&A seamless and successful by making cybersecurity a priority throughout the integration process.

Part of the secret to Cisco’s success is its ability to acquire companies that strengthen its technology portfolio and securely integrate them into the larger organization.

One of the key considerations, when an organization acquires a company, is ensuring that the security posture of their solutions and infrastructure meet the necessary security standards.

Why risk management, assessment, and assurance are vital to establishing cybersecurity confidence during the M&A process.

Cisco IT’s C-Bridge product provides a quicker, more secure network transition for acquired companies. It allows Cisco’s internal IT and InfoSec teams to improve time to access for new employees, maintain a stringent security posture, and reduce the cost of integration for acquisitions.
