Transform SAP Operations with Performance Monitoring

Growing cybercrime is leaving companies rattled — and justifiably so. In 2022, the average cost of a data breach in the U.S. reached nearly $9.5 million.*

A “wait-and-see” approach to application security is no longer an option — it’s time to take action.

In this webinar, we’ll explore how business risk scoring in Cisco Secure Application — when paired with monitoring and observability — can strengthen your security posture and help mitigate business risk.

You’ll gain insights on:
-Why 93% of technologists say correlating risk in relation to application performance is important.
-How prioritizing risk response based on likelihood and impact can better protect users and the bottom line.
-A demo of Cisco Secure Application continuous risk scoring with business context.

The state of cybersecurity real-world strategies for mitigating business risk

Dynatrace claims to outpace Cisco in the observability space — but that’s simply not true. Without Full-Stack Observability, IT teams lack AI-driven insights needed to effectively prioritize remediation and security based on what matters most to your business. Cisco Full-Stack Observability (FSO) goes beyond reactive monitoring to deliver proactive and predictive visibility across the entire tech stack.

Sorry Dynatrace, you can’t do that.

In this webinar you’ll learn: 
-Key differentiators between Dynatrace and Cisco Full-Stack Observability. (Spoiler alert: it’s all about AI-driven insights, accelerating MTTR, reducing tool and vendor sprawl, and mitigating risk — all in one extensible platform.)
-What to look for in an observability solution to understand with confidence which one serves your needs now and in the future.
-Why unifying views of siloed telemetry from different domains without correlation to outcomes from Dynatrace is not “observability” and can’t safeguard your entire user journey.

If Dynatrace is your jam, no worries. Bring it along for the ride! Cisco FSO was engineered to play well with everyone — any platform, tool, or vendor.

Cisco FSO vs. Dynatrace: Beyond Monitoring for User Experience Protection

When SAP is at the heart of your organization, any slowdown carries significant consequences. But for the IT teams that manage SAP S/4HANA and multi-cloud environments, getting to the root cause of performance issues isn’t always easy.

In this webinar, we’ll dive into how AppDynamics Monitoring for SAP® Solutions delivers the end-to-end SAP visibility you need to conduct fast and effective root cause analysis. With transaction and code-level visibility, you’ll be able to keep your SAP ERP running flawlessly.

Learn how to:
-Gain end-to-end visibility across your entire SAP landscape.
-Enable proactive alerting using dynamic baselines to identify whether the problem lies within SAP.
-Diagnose the root cause of performance issues and assess the impact on user experience.
-Prioritize actions by using reporting to connect every layer of your infrastructure to critical operations.
-Identify issues before, during, and after migration, providing real-time critical business performance insights.

Watch this webinar for the insights you need to optimize SAP and ensure SAP performance doesn’t hurt business performance.

Proactive Digital Experience Monitoring

In today's world, it is becoming increasingly critical that businesses deliver flawless digital experiences. One slow down, one broken check out button, one failed redirect and a customer or user may be gone forever. Not to mention the underlying impact of security vulnerabilities, which are getting increasingly pernicious by the day.

As customer expectations are growing, so do the complexities of the IT infrastructure. Apps are hosted on-premises, in hybrid environments and in the cloud, and organizations are resorting to adding more and more monitoring tools across application, network and security teams, creating silos, tool sprawl and rising costs. And while 57% of businesses acknowledge using more than ten products for observability and monitoring, 62% admit they still have observability functionality gaps.* Not addressing these observability challenges can leave your brand reputation at risk.

In this session, you will learn how Cisco Full-Stack Observability can help break through the noise, silos and tool sprawl by bringing data together from across application, networking and security - whether on-premises, in hybrid environments or in the cloud, and provide intelligent insights and actions tied to business context. 
We will be joined by two Cisco customers who will share their own observability journeys and how Cisco Full-Stack Observability has helped position themselves and their teams as true growth partners with the business.

Full Stack Observability starts here

Most industries experience high demand and significant bumps in revenue based on the time of year and their specialties. For example, air travel increases in the summer which impacts app usage. As such, these companies tend to execute go-to-market strategies for sales and new product rollouts on a predictable schedule which gives cybercriminals the advantage of identifying a path of least resistance while planning attacks.

For those caught in the crosshairs at the busiest and most important time of the organization's year, the consequences of security gaps can wreak havoc. 

In this webinar, you’ll learn: 
How to ensure mission-critical applications are safe during high incident seasons. 
How to prioritize resources against the biggest impact.
What to do if an incident arises.

Security tips & tricks to stay safe during high incident seasons
