Integrate On-Premises Management Center With Cisco Security Cloud

This procedure describes how to integrate the on-premises management center with Cisco Security Cloud. By enabling Cisco Security Cloud integration, your management center gets registered to the Cisco cloud tenancy.

Before you begin

Security Cloud Control uses Cisco security cloud sign on as its identity provider and Duo for multifactor authentication. Ensure that you have your Cisco security cloud sign on credentials and can sign in to the Cisco regional cloud where your account was created.
A Security Cloud Control tenant is required to integrate the on-premises management center with Cisco Security Cloud. If you do not already have a Security Cloud Control tenant, request one. See Create a Security Cloud Control Tenant for more information.

Procedure

Step 1	In your on-premises management center, perform the following: For on-premises management center version between 7.2 and 7.4.x, go to Integration > SecureX. For on-premises management center version 7.6 or later, go to Integration > Cisco Security Cloud.
Step 2	For on-premises management center version between 7.2 and 7.4.x, click Enable Secure X. For on-premises management center version 7.6 or later, click Cisco Security Cloud.
