Cisco DefensePro X10 1G Software License | DDoS Protection, License — RD-DPX10-1G

Secure 1 Gbps of licensed DefensePro X10 capacity with a software license built for network protection planning. This item is intended for teams that need to match security coverage to traffic volume without oversizing the deployment. For infrastructure and security leaders, that means cleaner capacity control, clearer procurement alignment, and a licensing model that maps directly to protected throughput. Cisco DefensePro is used in environments where availability matters and attack traffic cannot be allowed to consume critical network resources. A 1G license gives teams a defined protection tier for smaller sites, branch environments, or targeted security segments that still require serious mitigation capability. It is a practical fit when the goal is to preserve service continuity while keeping licensing tied to actual traffic needs. Because this is a software license, the value is in entitlement and scale planning rather than hardware footprint. It helps standardize protection across sites, support budget forecasting, and avoid paying for capacity that will not be used. For buyers comparing options, the appeal is straightforward: precise licensed throughput for a known deployment size.
