This move is in line with trends we have seen emphasizing data and application protection and less about protecting the overall network. However, to achieve this, network operators need to have to have better visibility and ability to proactively identify security threats, especially as more devices and resources become connected. Further complicating this, IoT inherently poses a security and governance risk - devices manufacturers do not understand network security, and most network service providers do not understand end-point device security. OpenDNS will help Cisco bridge several gaps in IoT security.
