Identity Services Engine (ISE)

Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) is a security platform that manages and controls device access to a network. It authenticates users and devices, ensuring only authorized individuals can connect. ISE evaluates security policies, enforces rules based on user roles or device types, and provides visibility into network activity. This helps organizations protect sensitive information, reduce security risks, and maintain a secure, compliant network environment. Essentially, ISE acts as a gatekeeper, verifying identities and applying appropriate access controls in a centralized, streamlined manner.
