November 13, 2025 -- Monks has entered a new partnership with Cisco that expands access to Cisco’s networking and security technologies through a single trusted provider.

Enterprises can now source Cisco solutions and managed services directly from Monks — simplifying procurement, strengthening security, and accelerating modernization.

The partnership brings together Monks’ leadership in enterprise transformation and lifecycle management with Cisco’s global expertise in networking, security, and cloud infrastructure. Together, the two organizations will help enterprises modernize faster, reduce complexity, and operate with greater resilience.
