Cisco Systems announced a suite of updated networking and security products at Cisco Live 2025, including a new generation of switches with up to 10 times the performance and expanded AI PODs in partnership with Nvidia. The new offerings feature servers equipped with the Nvidia RTX 6000 Pro GPU and the Nvidia RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server GPU, as part of the Cisco Secure AI Factory. To address operational complexity and security for autonomous AI agents, Cisco unveiled "AgenticOps" capabilities, including the AI Canvas platform, which will be tested with select customers this fall. AI Canvas is powered by Cisco's Deep Network Model, a large language model trained on over four decades of Cisco expertise. The AI Assistant provides natural language troubleshooting and workflow automation. Cisco introduced new security solutions such as AI Defense and Hypershield, which integrate with Nvidia AI to provide runtime monitoring, post-quantum cryptography, and comprehensive protection across the AI lifecycle. Enhancements to Hybrid Mesh Firewall, zero-trust network access, and digital observability include deeper integration with Splunk and ThousandEyes. Industry research indicates 89% of CIOs consider agentic AI a strategic priority, with agentic AI projected to drive $6 trillion in economic value by 2028. The market for AI technologies is expected to reach $244 billion in 2025. Additionally, 73% of security leaders are reassessing their SIEM, and 90% cite AI as a key driver in selecting new solutions. Krutrim, an India-based AI startup that became a unicorn with a $1 billion valuation and $50 million funding, has announced the launch of 'Kruti', an agentic AI assistant, on June 12. The assistant is powered by the Deep Network Model and will offer features such as listening, adapting, and acting proactively in multiple languages. India's Sarvam Samvaad platform has also launched to enable enterprises to build conversational AI agents fluent in 11 Indian languages.
