Cisco Secure Firewall 3100 Series


In today's distributed world, securing your network edge, data center, and cloud environments is more complex than ever. You need a security solution that doesn’t just keep up, but puts you ahead of threats. The Cisco Secure Firewall 3100 Series is engineered to deliver exactly that: robust business resiliency and superior threat defense, all without sacrificing performance.
Designed for the modern mid-range enterprise, the 3100 Series makes advanced security practical and effective. Whether you're enabling a secure hybrid workforce, building a Zero Trust architecture, or protecting critical data, this threat-focused appliance provides the power and flexibility you need to grow your business with confidence.
At the heart of the Cisco Secure Firewall 3100 Series is a modern CPU architecture combined with purpose-built hardware that accelerates critical firewall, cryptographic, and threat inspection tasks. This means you can enable advanced features like Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention (NGIPS) and Application Visibility and Control (AVC) without creating performance bottlenecks that slow your business down.
The platform offers incredible flexibility, allowing you to run either Cisco’s classic ASA software or the next-generation Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) software. With five distinct models and the ability to cluster for increased performance, the 3100 Series provides a clear, scalable path that protects your investment as your organization’s needs evolve.

Q: Can the 3100 Series integrate with my existing security infrastructure?
A: Absolutely. The 3100 Series is a core component of the Cisco Secure platform, designed for seamless integration with other Cisco and third-party security tools for unified visibility and automated threat response. The NEXUS ITX team specializes in creating these integrated security architectures.
Q: What's the main difference between running ASA and FTD software on the firewall?
A: ASA (Adaptive Security Appliance) software is Cisco's traditional, robust firewall OS known for its rock-solid stability and performance. FTD (Firewall Threat Defense) is a unified software image that combines firewalling with next-gen features like NGIPS and Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) in a single platform. We can help you determine which software best aligns with your operational model and security goals.
Q: How does the Cisco 3100 Series support a Zero Trust security model?
A: The 3100 Series is fundamental to a Zero Trust strategy. It provides the visibility to see every user and application, the segmentation to create granular access policies, and the threat inspection to continuously verify traffic, helping you enforce the core principle of "never trust, always verify." Let us show you how we can build a Zero Trust roadmap for your organization.
Q: Why should I purchase from NEXUS ITX instead of another reseller?
