Cisco Firepower
Overview
The Secure Firewall 1010 — still widely searched as the Firepower 1010 — is Cisco's desktop next-generation firewall for small offices, branches and retail sites. We supply it with the right threat defence licences, configure the base policy before dispatch and migrate the ASA it is replacing.

UK buying guide
Compare the exact hardware, licensing and compatibility—not just the product family or headline price.
Identify the security services, VPN traffic and internet bandwidth required at each site. Compare the relevant performance figures in the exact model's datasheet rather than treating raw firewall throughput as inspected throughput.
Confirm which subscriptions enable the required protections, their duration and the support included. List hardware, security services and support separately so two proposals can be compared on equal terms.
Check WAN and LAN interfaces, any high-availability requirements and the support lifecycle of both the proposed appliance and your existing equipment before planning a migration.
Official Cisco UK product guides and Cisco Meraki documentation. Check the current datasheet for your exact model before purchase.
A single site of up to roughly 50 to 100 users where one compact appliance handles the perimeter, remote-access VPN and the site-to-site tunnel back to head office. It runs the same Secure Firewall Threat Defence software as the larger models, so policy and reporting stay consistent across the estate.
Indicative figures with the security services enabled. We confirm the model against your actual bandwidth and user count before quoting.
| Deployment | Interfaces | Threat defence throughput | Typical users | Management |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Secure Firewall 1010 | 8 x 1 GbE (2 x PoE+), integrated switching | ~650 Mbps class | Up to ~100 | FMC, cloud-delivered FMC or on-box Device Manager |
| Secure Firewall 1120 | 8 x 1 GbE + 4 x SFP | ~1.5 Gbps class | ~100–250 | FMC or cloud-delivered FMC |
Most small ASA estates map straight onto the 1010. We review the running configuration, migrate the rules worth keeping, drop the dead ones and stage the cutover so the old unit stays live until you are ready.
FAQs
Yes. Cisco renamed the Firepower range to Cisco Secure Firewall; the 1010 hardware and its threat defence software are the same product under the current name.
Comfortably up to around 100 users on a typical UK business internet connection. If SSL inspection is on for everyone, or you need more than 1 Gbps inspected, we would size a 1120 or 2110 instead and explain why.
The appliance firewalls and terminates VPN on its own, but IPS, URL filtering and malware defence come from threat defence licences. We quote hardware, licences, management and support together so nothing is missing at go-live.
Yes. Every firewall we ship is imaged, licensed and configured to your policy before dispatch, with the running configuration documented for your team.
