The cisco fmc tag on WindowsForum.com collects discussion of Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center and the security risks surrounding it. Coverage centers on CVE-2026-20079, a vulnerability exploited in real attacks that grants root access to the management console, with reporting linking those exploits to Qilin ransomware activity. The broader theme is that attackers now target the consoles managing enterprise networks rather than the firewalls and switches themselves, because a compromised console holds credentials and change-control paths for every device beneath it.
