Why teams switch From Cisco Secure Client to Tailscale

Device plus icon

Tailscale avoids prescriptive hardware recommendations or complex firewall software. Less for you to maintain, easier for you to set up.

Lock icon

Tailscale is private by default. No open ports, exposed gateways, or manual lockdowns required. One misplaced rule on your Cisco ASA can expose you.

Invest in a modern networking solution that is designed from the ground up to avoid the well known vulnerabilities of traditional VPNs.

Cisco Secure Client puts your infrastructure at risk

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA) devices and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) work to expand the attack surface area of your network, while also requiring constant patches to provide a baseline level of security. Miss an update and you lose complete control to your system.

Documented vulnerabilities like in Remote Access VPN, Cisco ASA software, and AnyConnect VPN service have resulted in Denial of Service attacks, bringing services down. Tailscale’s fundamental design as a decentralized network avoids concentrated bottlenecks that are ripe for exploitation.

From federal enterprises to large business, there is documented risk to betting and investing into an ecosystem that is consistently exploitable.

Who else is switching?
