In addition to the announcements listed above, all CWS connectors continue to receive investment and engineering resources. A recent example are two improvements to the ISR G2 connector, released within the last 30 days.

The first, Cloud Whitelisting allows users to create exception lists through the ScanCenter portal that are automatically downloaded and enforced on ISR G2 routers. The second, Integrated Telemetry, allows for the automatic reporting of telemetry data back to Cisco TAC to simplify the investigation of customer reported issues. This improves the closed-loop of information from customer environments to our cloud, also allowing Cisco to further fine-tune the efficacy of our cloud-delivered security engines. Customers are required to explicitly change configuration settings to send telemetry data to Cisco, which contains no company specific or personally identifiable information (PII).
