In 2025, cyber threats will only continue to become more sophisticated and frequent, making proactive security a necessity rather than a choice. Businesses of all sizes need end-to-end security visibility to mitigate risks. Dicker Data can provide you with the tools and expertise to deliver robust security solutions and in turn, capitalise on new revenue opportunities with Cisco.
From ransomware and phishing to AI-driven attacks and supply chain vulnerabilities, cyber threats are coming from all directions and increasing in frequency. If you don't protect your customers from all angles, you'll both suffer the consequences of financial loss, reputational damage, and regulatory penalties. Cisco provides solutions that will mitigate all of the above threats, and more.
Cisco Security is Cisco’s comprehensive security product portfolio, all of which is available at Dicker Data. Cisco Security products offer unmatched efficacy in data protection, providing security that’s not only agile and adaptable, but also incredibly easy to use. Achieve security resilience and protect your customers' business amidst unpredictable threats or change. Cisco Security’s emphasis on resilience helps businesses close security gaps, see more, anticipate what’s next and take the right action, strengthening companies’ institution-wide investments in other types of resilience. Here are some of their world-class solutions:
Cisco Extended Detection & Response (XDR): Unified security visibility across networks, endpoints, and cloud environments.
Cisco Secure Firewall: Next-gen threat protection with deep network segmentation.
Cisco Duo: Strong MFA and Zero Trust access controls to prevent unauthorised access.
Cisco Umbrella: Cloud security at the DNS-layer, blocking malicious traffic before it reaches the network.
Cisco Secure Access: Secure hybrid work solutions with seamless authentication and threat prevention.
Case Study: Melbourne Global Systems
The Challenge:
As our customers embraced hybrid work, cloud apps, and distributed infrastructure, their environments became increasingly complex and difficult to secure. We noticed a growing lack of unified visibility and control, making real-time threat monitoring and response more challenging than ever. Small and mid-sized businesses, in particular, struggled with fragmented security toolsets, stretched internal resources, and expanding attack surfaces. Combined with compliance demands and limited budgets, these issues created a clear need for simplified, integrated security solutions, backed by expert guidance and proactive support.
The Outcome:
By leveraging Cisco’s integrated security portfolio through Dicker Data, we transformed our approach to customer protection. Solutions like Cisco XDR, Duo, Secure Firewall, and Umbrella enabled us to deliver unified visibility, enforce Zero Trust access, and secure users across hybrid environments. The $7,500 Cisco Security Assessment cashback became a powerful catalyst for engaging customers early, identifying vulnerabilities, and delivering measurable value. With the ongoing support and enablement from Dicker Data’s Cisco Security Centre of Excellence, we enhanced our technical capabilities, strengthened customer relationships, and unlocked new revenue streams.
