Cisco ASA5555 FirePOWER IPS & URL Filtering SMS-1000 | Security Licensing — ASA5555-TAC-SMS-1K

Strengthen perimeter control on supported ASA 5555-X platforms with licensing for FirePOWER IPS, application awareness, and URL filtering. This fixed 1,000-license package is built for environments that need more than basic firewall enforcement: it adds inspection and policy controls that help reduce exposure to malicious traffic, shadow applications, and risky destinations. For infrastructure teams, the value is in precision. FirePOWER IPS helps identify and stop known attack patterns, while application and URL filtering give security teams more granular control over what users and systems can reach. That combination supports cleaner segmentation, tighter acceptable-use policy enforcement, and better alignment between network security and compliance requirements. This license is designed for ASA 5555-X, 5555-X Firewall Edition, 5555-X IPS Edition, 5555-X with 5,000 AnyConnect Essentials and Mobile, 5555-X with 5,000 AnyConnect Premium and Mobile, and 5555-X with Firepower Threat Defense. It is a practical fit for organizations standardizing on Cisco security infrastructure and looking to extend the life and capability of an existing platform without replacing hardware.
