Embedded Industrial Security: The Network-Native Advantage
Jan 29, 2026
SecurityWeek

Andrew McPhee, Industrial IoT Security Solution Manager at Cisco, joins the SecurityWeek podcast and dives into why traditional monitoring and SPAN-based approaches fail to deliver true visibility in industrial environments, and how network-native security embeds inspection, segmentation, and protection directly into the network. We discuss real-world implementation challenges, economic tradeoffs, and how to move from visibility to action without disrupting operations.  (Want to continue the discussion? Contact Cisco.)
