How can technology make people want to come into the office?
Tripadvisor is using Cisco collaboration endpoints, sensors, and a secure AI-powered network to turn workplace data into better decisions about space, comfort, and collaboration. Cisco has applied similar lessons across more than 30 of its own offices, demonstrating how intelligent workplace technology can improve the employee experience while helping organizations make better use of their real estate.

When IT meets OT, the security playbook has to change.
As industrial systems become more connected and AI expands into operations, network professionals need to understand more than enterprise IT. Cisco research found that 34% of organizations cite skills shortages as a barrier to scaling industrial AI. Cisco’s new OT Security Practitioner certification addresses that gap with training in industrial networking, segmentation, monitoring, security standards, and incident response.

AI models can discover as well as exploit vulnerabilities. Attackers are moving faster from vulnerability disclosure to exploit attempts.
Cisco Live Protect gives operators another option. When Cisco validates runtime protection for a supported platform, release, policy, and mode, teams can reduce exposure while they complete the permanent software fix.
Live Protect supports—not replaces—your existing patching strategy.
Learn how Cisco closes the gap between vulnerability disclosure and patch completion without disrupting your operations.

What happens when the network alert backlog outgrows the team?
Cisco and Omdia’s study of 1,000 IT and NetOps leaders found that clearing a typical organization’s daily network alert backlog by hand would take roughly 100 specialists. The same study found that 51% of organizations are already running agentic AI in production.
On *When 100 Engineers Aren’t Enough to Clear the Backlog*, Cisco’s Joe Vaccaro explains why network operations is becoming a proving ground for AgenticOps—and what autonomous operations could mean across the enterprise.

Crypto-Agility: Why Swapping Algorithms is Key
Quantum readiness isn’t a one-time upgrade. It’s the ability to keep adapting.
Adopting ML-KEM and declaring the transition complete isn’t enough. Crypto-agility means being able to change cryptographic algorithms without redesigning the systems around them. That flexibility matters because post-quantum research is still advancing, standards continue to evolve, and governments don’t always agree on whether organizations should use post-quantum cryptography alone or pair it with classical approaches.
Cisco’s Jason Sloderbeck and Kiran Ghodgaonkar sat down with UC San Diego’s Professor of Computer Science, Daniele Micciancio and discussed why infrastructure must be designed to evolve as requirements change.

AI is changing how businesses work—and the infrastructure behind that work has to evolve, too.
In the WebexOne 2026 keynote, Cisco President and Chief Product Officer Jeetu Patel shares three forces reshaping business: agents as the new workforce, inference as the new workload, and tokens as the new currency. Watch his take on the critical infrastructure needed for the AI era.

An intelligent workplace should make it easier for people to do their best work—wherever they are.
That starts with reliable Wi-Fi and rooms that are easy to find. Behind the scenes, flexible networking, collaboration-ready spaces, and built-in security help make the experience work smoothly, whether it’s a regular workday or a big event.

AI-led network operations are moving from pilot to expectation.
An Omdia survey of more than 1,000 IT and NetOps leaders found that 84% expect an AI-led operating model within 12 months. But adoption is being driven by pressure: organizations receive more than 4,000 monitoring alerts per day, and 95% say existing AIOps tools cannot keep up. In this TechTarget Feature, Cisco’s Joe Vaccaro explains why cross-domain context, explainability, and deterministic guardrails are essential to scaling AgenticOps.

What if the office could make the commute worth it?
The intelligent workplace is moving beyond connectivity. Tripadvisor is using Cisco collaboration endpoints, sensors, and a secure AI-powered network to understand occupancy, foot traffic, desk usage, and meeting-room demand. That data can help create more useful spaces, reduce friction, and improve the employee experience while giving IT and real estate leaders a clearer view of how the workplace performs.

The time between vulnerability disclosure and patch completion can leave critical infrastructure exposed.
Cisco Live Protect helps reduce that exposure with Cisco-provided, Cisco-validated runtime protection for supported Cisco products. Teams can monitor potential impact, move to enforcement where supported, and continue operations without a reboot during the protection action—while permanent remediation proceeds through normal patch and change-control processes.

Wi-Fi 7 is only as powerful as the network strategy behind it.
Cisco IT had to upgrade connectivity across 90,000 employees and hundreds of facilities worldwide. By combining Meraki, Catalyst Center, Splunk, and Cisco security, the team cut per-site onboarding from two days to one or two hours, skipped predictive designs at 39 of 44 sites, and achieved data rates often 100% higher than Wi-Fi 6E.

Agentic AI is moving from experiment to operations. The hard part is earning trust.
On Right About Now, Cisco’s Joe Vaccaro shares practical lessons from rolling out AI agents to 90,000 employees, including why clear guardrails, strong context, evals, and governance matter before agents touch critical infrastructure. He also explains how leaders can manage token costs, decide when to train their own models, and start building hands-on fluency today.
