The reporting and ability to apply policies using AnyConnect with the Umbrella roaming module have been the best security enhancement for us. Our biggest threat was our road warriors and employees who worked from home getting infected and then coming into the office. This has allowed us to protect those company laptops all the time. Going forward, Umbrella will also allow us to provide DIA for our IWAN sites while still providing a level of protection for them and not requiring full featured firewalls at every single site.
