Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense Virtual (FTDv) is a virtual version of the Cisco Firepower Next Generation Firewall.

Advanced security
Advanced threat defense options include next-generation IPS, advanced malware protection, URL filtering, and application visibility and control. Use Amazon Route 53 for remote access VPN. Integrate with Amazon Transit Gateway for scalable inter-VPC communication. Automatically adapts to expansion and provides high reliability.
Cisco Talos provides industry-leading visibility to detect and block advanced threats.

Consistent security
Get consistent policies, enforcement, and threat protection across your entire environment. Inspecting encrypted traffic while automating risk ranking and impact tagging reduces the number of incidents to prioritize threats. Microsegmentation technology protects east-west traffic.

Unified management
FTDv devices can be managed uniformly by API, Firepower Device Manager, Cisco Defense Orchestrator, or Firepower Management Center (FMC). FMC for Amazon Web Services can be installed locally or on Amazon Web Services. REST APIs are supported, providing an HTTP-based interface for management, policy, and monitoring.

Unified security platform
Cisco SecureX is a cloud-native, built-in platform in our product portfolio that enables simplicity, visibility, and increased efficiency. Respond quickly to security incidents and coordinate the configuration of Amazon Web Services VPCs manually or automatically.
