How does Cisco Secure Cloud Analytics handle information about network traffic?

Cisco Secure Cloud Analytics ingests network flows and traffic telemetry, such as NetFlow and cloud flow logs, and applies behavioral modeling to that information. It establishes a baseline of normal activity for entities such as hosts, users, and workloads. New activity is compared with the baseline to identify anomalies, suspicious communication patterns, lateral movement, command-and-control traffic, and potential data exfiltration. The platform does not merely forward or archive the collected information. Although its analytics may incorporate statistical methods and machine learning, Cisco specifically describes the solution as using entity and behavioral modeling. This allows it to detect threats based on how an entity acts over time, including previously unknown threats that would not necessarily match a conventional signature. Cisco Secure Cloud Analytics
