Cisco DefensePro X80 20G Software License

When attack traffic threatens service availability, the right protection tier matters. Cisco DefensePro X80 - 20G Software License is designed for deployments that require 20G licensed capacity for DDoS defense. It gives infrastructure and security teams a clear entitlement for a higher-capacity DefensePro profile, helping them protect critical applications without overspending on unused headroom. This license fits environments where traffic volumes, exposure, or business impact justify a stronger protection tier. By matching the license to the deployment profile, teams can keep procurement precise and operations predictable. That is especially important in enterprise and service-provider settings where uptime, customer trust, and incident response costs are tightly linked. For organizations standardizing on Cisco security controls, this license supports a disciplined approach to capacity planning. It helps ensure the protection layer is sized for the workload, not guessed at after the fact. The result is a cleaner fit between risk posture and budget, with a license model that supports long-term operational control.
