Home/Cisco Expertise

Deep Cisco experience for customers and channel partners.

Over 75% of Fortune 500 organizations run on Cisco. We've spent two decades engineering on that stack — and we extend the work Cisco partners do, quietly and with senior-level rigor.

01 · Enterprise Networking

From campus to WAN — engineered for what's next.

Production-grade Cisco networking architectures covering observability, automation, and the next generation of wireless.

  • Cisco ThousandEyes for network and digital experience monitoring

  • Cisco SD-Routing
  • DNA Center / Catalyst Center automation
  • Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 architecture and design
02 · Security

Zero-trust security, end to end on the Cisco stack.

Identity-aware, telemetry-rich security architectures across endpoint, network, and cloud.

  • Cisco Secure Firewall (FTD / FMC)
  • Cisco Secure Access (SSE / SASE)

Fabric, compute, and storage — engineered together.

Cisco data center designs that scale predictably and survive failure without theatrics.

  • Nexus 9000 / NX-OS advanced architectures
  • Cisco Intersight Workload Optimizer
  • Cisco UCS X-Series
  • Cisco Nexus Hyperfabric
  • Cisco Silicon One
  • Cisco SAN and MDS platforms

04 · AI & AI PODs

SAIF on Cisco AI PODs.
A secure-by-default path to enterprise AI.

Cisco AI PODs are the pre-validated building blocks of the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA. We deliver them with Cisco's AI Security & Safety Framework (SAIF) applied as policy, telemetry, and guardrails from day one.

Scope an AI POD engagement

01 · ASSESS
Threat & readiness review
Map your AI workloads to SAIF threat categories: prompt injection, model exfiltration, agent-to-agent, supply chain.
02 · ARCHITECT
AI POD sizing & segmentation
Right-size compute, fabric, and storage tiers; design data and identity segmentation across training and inference.
03 · DELIVER
Secure AI Factory rollout
Stand up Cisco AI Defense, Hypershield, and Isovalent policy alongside the AI POD — validated against your change windows.
04 · OPERATE
SOC integration & day-2
Splunk and Intersight telemetry routed to your SOC, with runbooks for agentic-AI incidents and continuous SAIF posture review.
  • Cisco AI PODs (pre-validated modular AI infrastructure)
  • AI-ready networking with deterministic low-latency fabrics
  • Cisco Silicon One for AI
  • NVIDIA-Cisco joint architectures
  • Cisco Hypershield runtime protection
  • Cisco AI Defense for prompt-injection and model risk
  • AI-driven Security Operations
  • Cisco Security Cloud integration
05 · IoT & OT

Bringing operational technology into the security fabric.

Industrial and physical environments engineered with the same rigor as enterprise IT — and visible to your SOC.

  • Cisco IE (Industrial Ethernet) platforms
  • Cisco Cyber Vision for OT visibility
  • ISA/IEC 62443-aligned architecture
  • OT security integration with the IT SOC
  • Private 5G solutions
  • Edge intelligence and distributed processing
06 · Cross-Architecture

The integration work that makes the whole portfolio pay off.

Most outcomes don't live inside a single architecture. We design where networking, security, data center, and operations meet.

Multi-Domain Integration

Designs that span networking, security, data center, and observability rather than stopping at the seams.

Enterprise Agreement Optimization

Aligning EA entitlements to active outcomes — and surfacing shelfware before the renewal conversation.

Cisco CX & Success Tracks Alignment

Operationalizing Cisco's adoption guidance so the use cases your business bought for actually land.

Lifecycle Advisory

From plan to retire — architecture decisions framed against the next 36 months, not just this fiscal year.

DevNet Automation & API Integration

NetDevOps pipelines, programmable infrastructure, and API-led integration with your ITSM and IdP.

Platform Consolidation Strategy

A defensible plan to reduce tool count without losing capability — and the migration path to get there.

Engineers collaborating in front of a network topology wall.
Channel Partner Enablement

Enhancing Cisco delivery — quietly, and as you.

A confidential, NDA-backed bench for Cisco VARs and MSPs that need senior architecture and delivery capacity behind the curtain. Your customer relationship; our engineering depth.

Frequently asked

Answers to what buyers usually ask first.

What is SAIF on Cisco AI PODs?

SAIF refers to Cisco's AI Security and Safety Framework — a holistic framework that classifies and operationalizes AI-specific risks (prompt injection, model exfiltration, agent-to-agent threats, supply chain). When Ngenium AI deploys a Cisco AI POD, we apply SAIF as policy, telemetry, and guardrails from day one, wiring in Cisco AI Defense, Hypershield, Isovalent, and Splunk alongside the infrastructure.

What is a Cisco AI POD?

A Cisco AI POD is a pre-validated, modular infrastructure building block for enterprise AI. It combines Cisco UCS X-Series and HGX/OAM compute with NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, Cisco Nexus 9000 / Nexus Hyperfabric for low-latency networking, storage options including VAST Data Platform, FlexPod, and FlashStack, and a software stack of NVIDIA AI Enterprise, Red Hat OpenShift, and Cisco Intersight.

What is the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA?

The Cisco Secure AI Factory is Cisco's reference architecture for production-grade enterprise AI, built jointly with NVIDIA. Cisco AI PODs are its infrastructure building blocks, and Cisco AI Defense, Hypershield, and Isovalent provide the security layer. Ngenium AI delivers full Secure AI Factory rollouts.

Does Ngenium AI deploy Cisco AI PODs?

Yes. AI POD design and delivery is one of our flagship offerings. Engagements run through a four-step framework: Assess (SAIF threat and readiness review), Architect (AI POD sizing and segmentation), Deliver (Secure AI Factory rollout), Operate (SOC integration and day-2).

What Cisco architectures does Ngenium AI cover?

Six architecture domains: Enterprise Networking (Catalyst 9000, IOS-XE, Nexus, EVPN/VXLAN, Segment Routing, SD-Routing, Catalyst Center, Wi-Fi 6E/7); Security (Secure Firewall, Secure Access, XDR, Secure Endpoint, Duo, Secure Network Analytics, Cloudlock, Secure Workload); Data Center (Nexus 9000, UCS X-Series, Hyperfabric, Silicon One, MDS, Multi-Site ACI); AI & AI PODs; IoT & OT (Cisco IE, Cyber Vision, ISA/IEC 62443); and Cross-Architecture (multi-domain integration, EA optimization, DevNet automation).

Does Ngenium AI work with Cisco channel partners?

Yes. We run a confidential, NDA-backed bench for Cisco VARs and MSPs that need senior architecture and delivery capacity behind the curtain. The customer relationship stays with you; we provide pre-sales, design, and delivery support — branded as you.
