Cisco has launched a new security product that it claims will use AI to help protect critical systems. Named ‘HyperShield,’ the enterprise technology firm describes the new service as capable of transforming multiple IT assets into security enforcement points, including virtual machines and Kubernetes clusters in public clouds. Deployment of the new product, Cisco added, would allow users to more easily block application exploits and hackers from laterally moving through systems to mount more extensive cyberattacks.

“The power of Cisco HyperShield is that it can put security anywhere you need it – in software, in a server, or in the future even in a network switch,” said Jeetu Patel, Cisco’s executive vice president and general manager for security and collaboration. “When you have a distributed system that could include hundreds of thousands of enforcement points, simplified management is mission critical.”
