The Cisco ASA (Adaptive Security Appliance) is a huge security package that makes use of multiple security technologies and solutions to monitor and protect an organization’s network from cyber-attacks. It does so by using the following techniques/tools:
- Stateful packet validation
 - Access Control List (ACL)
 - Integrated threat mitigation tools such as antivirus, antispam, and content filtering
 
A Cisco ASA also has access to Virtual Private Network (VPN) remote access and high-availability features that come in handy in case of network failure or unplanned downtime.
