Cisco DefensePro X20 10G Software License

Keep high-value services available with Cisco DefensePro X20 - 10G Software License, a software license designed to enable 10G-class protection in supported DefensePro deployments. For teams responsible for uptime, the value is straightforward: maintain service continuity while absorbing attack traffic that would otherwise consume capacity, disrupt users, or force emergency response. This license is a fit for enterprises that need more than basic filtering. It supports security architectures where DDoS mitigation must operate at network speed and align with production traffic demands. That makes it useful for internet-facing applications, customer portals, and infrastructure segments where performance and protection must coexist. Because it is a software license, procurement stays tied to the platform you already run, without introducing unnecessary hardware complexity. For buyers comparing lower-tier options, the case for this model is the 10G scope: it is sized for environments where traffic volume and service criticality justify a more capable protection tier.
