Cisco Unveils Frontier AI Red Teaming and Agent Observability to Secure the Agentic Enterprise

Jeetu Patel, President and Chief Product Officer of Cisco

“You cannot scale what you cannot secure, govern, or observe. By uniting frontier-level AI runtime protections with machine-speed agent quality controls, we are building a continuous trust loop: protecting agents from compromise while ensuring every token spent delivers measurable business value.”

Michael Moore, Cybersecurity Lead at Anthropic

“Enterprises are increasingly building AI agents into their core operations and want to test those agents thoroughly before putting them into production. By bringing Claude Mythos to Cisco AI Defense, Cisco can help security teams red team their agents with advanced reasoning that plans tests and generates attack ideas for each system.”

Liz Centoni, Cisco EVP and Chief Customer Experience Officer

“AI is shrinking the time organizations have to respond to threats, and knowing where you're exposed only matters if you can act on it. Bringing Cisco IQ vulnerability insights into Cisco Data Fabric powered by the Splunk Platform gives analysts that context in the middle of an investigation, so they can decide what to do next. With our partners and Professional Services teams, we're helping customers move from identifying risk to actually reducing it.”
