Managed Service Providers (MSPs) can now take advantage of custom branding options within the Cisco Meraki Dashboard. All four elements of the definition are evidenced. Branded portals from the Meraki dashboard branding documentation, which also states "Any logos that are applied to Dashboard should be the logo of the MSP and not of the end customer." Tenant isolation and delegated administration from multi-organisation management, corroborated on the Secure Access datasheet: "Large enterprise customers can manage multiple organizations (orgs) through a single user interface, with central access and license management." Branding is configured per organisation and can be cloned to new organisations as a template.

Native, specifically confirmed in the AI-traffic context - the February 2026 AI-aware SASE announcement explicitly names 'packet duplication' as an AI traffic optimization technique [25]

Cisco Secure Connect services operate in the Cisco Umbrella global cloud architecture which is network of data centers located throughout the world interconnected with a high speed, low latency backbone. Yes rather than partner_integrated. This is Cisco's own service infrastructure, not a third party's PoPs that Cisco resells: Cisco owns and operates the Umbrella global cloud architecture, publishes its data centre list, and enforces security and delivers remote access from it. Corroborated by the Umbrella global network page, "The Cisco Umbrella global cloud architecture serves more than 30,000 customers daily in 190+ countries." AWS, Azure and GCP connectivity was disregarded as it does not meet the definition.

Cisco Secure Connect services operate in the Cisco Umbrella global cloud architecture which is network of data centers located throughout the world interconnected with a high speed, low latency backbone. Partial rather than yes. A global, not national, footprint is clearly evidenced and the documentation states the data centres are interconnected by a backbone. What is not evidenced is the ownership or control test in the definition: no page reviewed states that Cisco owns or controls that backbone rather than buying transit or leased capacity. The Umbrella global cloud architecture page instead emphasises internet peering and anycast, "Umbrella peers directly with more than 1000 organizations", which points towards an internet-peering-centric design. Graded partial on the ownership gap. See conflicts.
