Intro to Cisco Secure Application in Splunk AppDynamics

Welcome to this in-depth introduction to Cisco Secure Application in Splunk AppDynamics. In this video, I’ll walk you through how Cisco Secure Application seamlessly integrates with your existing Splunk AppDynamics APM agents to provide real-time security monitoring.

We’ll first review the high-level architecture of Cisco Secure Application, and then I’ll show you how to use the Cisco Secure Application dashboard to monitor the security status of applications, business transactions, libraries, vulnerabilities, attacks, and observations.

If you’re ready to get started with Cisco Secure Application, you can first check out the requirements in the official docs here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/appd/24.x/latest/en/application-security-monitoring/cisco-secure-application-requirements. Then install the agent that supports your environment, and finally contact your Splunk AppDynamics sales representative or email salesops@appdynamics.com to have a Cisco Secure Application license provisioned. More info can be found in the Application Security Monitoring Getting Started docs here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/appd/24.x/latest/en/application-security-monitoring/getting-started-with-cisco-secure-application
