Sales Specialist - Secure Workload & Analytics (Tetration & Stealthwatch)

What You'll Do

As a Secure Workload Analytics (SWA) Security Specialist, you will be responsible for bringing an innovative and consultative approach to securing customers' networks and applications/workloads. You will work as part of a team that has a 'start-up' mentality, but with the full support, scale, & resources of Cisco backing your efforts.

Applications are the critical engine fueling our customers' increasingly digital businesses and brands. It is difficult to secure them, especially as they proliferate beyond the traditional data center to private, public, and hybrid clouds. Cisco Secure Workload allows customers to secure application workloads across any infrastructure, any cloud, and any technology with automated micro-segmentation.

Visibility into networks, on-prem, cloud, and hybrid, is one of the keys to helping defeat advanced attackers. Network Detection and Response (NDR) (also referred to as Network Traffic Analytics) solutions apply machine learning and other analytical techniques to network traffic to help organizations detect suspicious traffic that other security solutions miss. Multi-cloud compliance reporting is also another large focus of the Cisco Secure Analytics solution.

Why Cisco

#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an inclusive future for all.

We embrace digital and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we're "old" (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but we're also a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do - you can't put us in a box!

But "Digital Transformation" is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)

Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, bold steps, and take the difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.

So, you have colorful hair? Don't care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That's cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world-changing? Be you, with us!
