Risks
1. Cyber Security Risks: As an organization with a wide range of products and services, Cisco Systems is vulnerable to cyber-attacks that could lead to security breaches and data theft.
2. Vendor Lock-in: Over time, Cisco has become an essential part of many organizations' IT infrastructure. This makes it difficult to switch from Cisco equipment to a different vendor, which can increase costs and reduce flexibility.
3. Mergers and Acquisition Risks: Cisco has acquired many companies over the years, and this has created uncertainty for customers as the organization has had to integrate and restructure its operations.
4. Technological Disruption: Cisco is vulnerable to new technologies that could render its products obsolete, leading to lost revenue and market share.
5. Talent Retention: Due to the highly competitive nature of the industry, Cisco faces challenges in retaining talented personnel. This could lead to the loss of key personnel and a disruption of operations.
