Frequently Asked Questions
What is SSL/TLS inspection and why do I need it?
SSL/TLS inspection decrypts and inspects encrypted web traffic to identify threats, enforce content policies, and maintain visibility into user activity. The Cisco Secure URL subscription provides the URL categorization data needed to make intelligent filtering decisions on encrypted traffic, protecting your network from malware, phishing, and policy violations hidden within HTTPS connections.
Is this subscription compatible with my existing Cisco Secure Firewall?
Yes, the L-RD-SURL-6K-1Y subscription is specifically designed for the RD-5424-SLI hardware appliance and integrates directly with Cisco Secure Firewall deployments. It provides the URL reputation and categorization data required for outbound SSL inspection within your existing security infrastructure.
What does the 6 Gbps throughput mean for my organization?
The 6 Gbps performance tier supports entry-level SSL inspection workloads suitable for branch offices, smaller data centers, or organizations with moderate encrypted traffic volumes. If your organization requires higher throughput for SSL/TLS inspection, Cisco offers higher-performance subscription tiers.
How often are URL categorization databases updated?
The subscription includes automatic updates to URL databases and threat intelligence feeds, ensuring your organization benefits from the latest threat intelligence and categorization data throughout the 1-year subscription period without manual intervention.
