SUMMARY:DevNet Ignite Security Workshop - London
DESCRIPTION:
 
 DevNet Ignite Security Workshop Overview
 In today’s 
 rapidly evolving digital landscape\, security teams are challenged to prot
 ect complex\, hybrid environments against sophisticated threats—while ma
 intaining efficiency and agility. This workshop is designed to provide bot
 h foundational knowledge and hands-on experience in leveraging automation 
 to strengthen security operations across multiple domains. Through five de
 dicated tracks—Introduction to Security Automation\, Network Security\,
  Breach Protection\, User Protection\, and Cloud Protection—attendees wi
 ll learn how to implement\, orchestrate\, and optimize security solutions 
 using Cisco’s advanced tools and APIs.
 Each track focuses on real-worl
 d use cases\, demonstrating how automation can accelerate threat detection
  and response\, reduce manual workload\, and ensure consistent enforcement
  of security policies. Participants will leave equipped with practical ski
 lls and strategies to integrate security automation into their organizatio
 ns\, improving accuracy\, speed\, and resilience in the face of today’s 
 most pressing cybersecurity challenges.
 Agenda
 
  
 
 1. Introduc
 tion to Security Automation
 This learning module provides a comprehensi
 ve introduction to the principles and practicalities of security automat
 ion\, covering the use of scripts\, APIs\, and industry-standard tools lik
 e Python\, Terraform\, and Ansible. Participants will discover how to au
 tomate well-defined\, repeatable security processes to reduce errors and a
 ccelerate response times\, with a special focus on Cisco’s XDR Automate 
 and the role of prompt engineering in leveraging generative AI for aut
 omation workflows. The session highlights the integration of Cisco securit
 y solutions\, showing how APIs enable seamless orchestration and managemen
 t of complex security environments.
 
  
 
 2. Network Security
 The
  Network Security module introduces participants to automated deployment a
 nd configuration of network security controls using Cisco Firepower Threat
  Defense (FTD) within AWS. Through a hands-on lab\, attendees will learn 
 how to use Terraform for deterministic\, repeatable firewall deployment\
 , implement autoscaling solutions\, and leverage Ansible scripts for str
 eamlined configuration management. This track demonstrates how automation 
 improves repeatability\, consistency\, and operational efficiency in secur
 ing modern network infrastructures.
 
 3. Breach Protection
 This sessi
 on delves into Cisco’s Breach Protection Suite\, which unifies threat de
 tection\, investigation\, mitigation\, and hunting across endpoints\, emai
 l\, network\, identity\, firewall\, and cloud environments. Participants w
 ill explore how Cisco XDR acts as an integrated threat hunting and respons
 e platform—leveraging APIs\, advanced analytics\, and automation to corr
 elate data from Cisco and third-party solutions. The track shows how autom
 ated workflows can rebuild attack chains\, prioritize incidents\, and enab
 le swift\, coordinated response actions to mitigate breaches and reduce bu
 siness impact.
 
 4. User Protection
 Focused on the critical importanc
 e of identity and device security\, the User Protection track equips parti
 cipants with the skills to automate user and device management using Cisco
 ’s User Protection Suite APIs. Attendees will explore practical use case
 s for Cisco Duo and Secure Access\, learning to orchestrate authentication
  flows\, enforce zero trust policies\, and streamline user protection in r
 emote and hybrid workforces. The session demonstrates how automation reduc
 es risk from user-targeted attacks and ensures consistent\, policy-driven 
 access controls.
 
 5. Cloud Protection
 
 The Cloud Protection module
  addresses the unique challenges of securing cloud and hybrid environments
  with Cisco’s Cloud Protection Suite. Participants will gain hands-on ex
 perience configuring and managing integrated\, cloud-native security contr
 ols that provide unified visibility\, reduce attack surfaces\, and automat
 e threat response. The lab emphasizes automation’s benefits—faster inc
 ident response\, reduced manual overhead\, and consistent policy enforceme
 nt across diverse cloud ecosystems—empowering organizations to scale sec
 urity with agility and confidence.
