About the Cisco Secure Dynamic Attributes Connector
The dynamic attributes connector enables your access control policy to adapt in real time to the changes in public and private cloud workloads and business-critical software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. It simplifies policy management by keeping rules up to date without tedious manual updates and policy deployment. Customers require policy rules to be defined based on non-network constructs such as VM name or security group, so that firewall policy is persistent even when the IP address or VLAN changes.
