Condition: Refurbished

The Cisco CS-MARS-50-K9 is part of the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (CS-MARS) product line. It’s a dedicated security appliance used for centralized security event monitoring, correlation, and incident response. Though now discontinued, it was widely used in enterprise environments for improving network security visibility and response time.

Features:

• Security Event Collection & Analysis: Collects logs and events from multiple network and security devices (like firewalls, routers, switches, IDS/IPS systems).
• Real-Time Threat Detection: Uses correlation rules and behavioral analysis to detect anomalies and potential threats across the network.
• Operating System: Security-hardened Linux (proprietary Cisco implementation)
• Firewall/VPN Capabilities: None – this is a monitoring appliance, not a firewall/VPN unit
