From first assessment to ongoing operations, pick the entry point that matches where
you are today.
A focused assessment of your existing ISE infrastructure, profiling architecture, capacity, patch compliance, and configuration health — with prioritized recommendations before you commit to a change.
For organizations:
End-to-end implementation of Cisco ISE, or migration of an existing ISE deployment, from on-premises to cloud, or from existing hardware to new hardware, with policies designed, validated, and tuned for production. Flexible block-hour support is also available for scheduled ISE upgrades.
For organizations:
Dedicated ISE node hosting on Gruve's AWS cloud infrastructure, combined with full platform operations — provisioning, connectivity, maintenance, upgrades, 24x7 NOC monitoring, annual assessments, patching, and biweekly reporting. Customers retain full ISE policy control (Bring Your Own License).
For organizations
Expert-led ISE configuration management, policy design and optimization, use-case implementation, and day to day operations — including security posture assessment, segmentation strategy, and compliance support. Available standalone for on-premises ISE customers or bundled with ISE Hosting for full-stack management. Offered in Silver, Gold, and Platinum tiers.
For organizations
"Enterprises need secure AI infrastructure that is simple to deploy,
trusted, and easy to manage from day one. Our work with Gruve brings
assurance directly into the PulseAI Platform, so enterprises can move
fast without compromising on governance or control."
A decade of focused ISE expertise, backed by Gruve's global delivery model
and its own cloud-hosted ISE infrastructure.
Over a decade focused exclusively on Cisco ISE, network access control, and Zero Trust architecture.
From one-time assessments to fully hosted and managed ISE — every entry point is available independently or in combination.
ISE Hosting is delivered on Gruve’s own cloud environment, with 24×7 NOC monitoring and defined SLAs.
Silver, Gold, and Platinum tiers let customers match the level of managed support to their operational needs.
Delivered via Cisco Authorized Channel Partners under the Cisco Solutions+ program, ensuring access to the latest ISE capabilities and best practices.
Result: reduction in incident response time.
Result: limit on breach propagation.
What's the difference between ISE Hosting and the Managed ISE Service? 
ISE Hosting covers infrastructure provisioning, platform operations, patching, and monitoring — you retain full control over ISE policy configuration. The Managed ISE Service adds expert-led policy design, use-case implementation, and day-2 operations on top. The two can be purchased independently or bundled for full-stack management.
Can we use the Managed ISE Service if our ISE is still on-premises?
Yes. The Managed ISE Service is available standalone for customers running ISE on-premises, or bundled with ISE Hosting if you also want Gruve to host the infrastructure.
Does Implementation cover migrating from on-premises to cloud, or just new deployments?
Both. ISE Implementation covers new, from-scratch ISE deployments as well as migrations — from on-premises to cloud, or from existing hardware to new hardware — with a validated cutover plan for each
How does block-hour support work for ISE upgrades?
Block-hour support is purchased in hour blocks (e.g. 20 hours) and can be drawn down for scheduled ISE upgrades as needed, without requiring a new project engagement each time.
What are the tier differences in the Managed ISE Service?
Silver, Gold, and Platinum tiers scale with your endpoint volume and operational needs. All tiers include the same core service components — policy design, day-2 operations, security posture support, and 24×7 monitoring — delivered against the same SLA framework (P1 15 min, P2 30 min, P3 60 min, P4 4 hours).
