ISE (Identity Services Engine)

Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) is a security platform that manages access to network resources. It verifies user identities and devices trying to connect, ensuring only authorized individuals and compliant devices gain access. ISE enforces security policies, such as specific permissions or restrictions, based on user roles or device type. It also continuously monitors network activity for unusual behavior, helping organizations maintain a secure and efficient network environment. In essence, ISE acts as a centralized gatekeeper that enforces security policies and authenticates users and devices accessing a corporate network.
