## Let go of Cisco Umbrella SIG and overcome!
- A lack of security service edge (SSE) vision*
Secure web gateway (SWG) is crucial to security service edge (SSE), but Cisco introduced SWG only recently in 2018. Cisco has made multiple attempts to build a SSE (and SASE) platform, with secure access being their latest effort. However, some components remain poorly integrated.
- Integration challenges*
Cisco Umbrella SIG lacks native integration across different technology stacks, inevitably leading to performance, security, and resiliency issues. There is also a risk of dependency on Cisco products, making future changes costly.
- Usability issues*
Cisco Umbrella SIG is not user friendly. Initial deployment hassles and a clunky UX pose significant challenges for security and networking teams.
