How do secure access service edge (SASE) and zero trust work together to improve network security? Simply put, SASE works by deploying security via the cloud, and zero trust deploys security in the least privileged access method. Networking trends have heavily shifted...
Critical network infrastructure drives business. Like a system of roadways, it determines how efficiently communications move to and from your organization. This affects everything such as the speed of customer banking transactions, to the reliable access IT support...
Security Service Edge. Is it just another fancy networking term? After all, we’ve already got SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), so why throw another buzzword into the mix? The truth is, there’s a big difference between Security Service Edge (SSE) and SASE. SSE is a...
When it comes to improving edge network resilience, traditional WAN architectures can easily get in your way. Suppose you’re setting up an electrical substation, cellular base station, or other distributed remote infrastructure to incorporate cloud-based networking....
SASE—which stands for secure access service edge—is a relatively new framework that converges wide-area networking with security into one cloud-based service stack. SASE uses software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) technology to directly connect branch offices and...
As workloads, applications, and data move to the cloud and business operations expand to include branch offices, remote data centers, and work-from-home staff, how do you define your network security perimeter? With zero trust networks, you don’t have to. Zero trust...
Ransomware is one of the biggest threats to enterprise network security. Recent findings show that 37% of organizations were affected by ransomware attacks in 2020 alone. These attacks can be financially devastating, costing companies an average of $1.85 million in...
Perimeter-based security is no longer sufficient for today’s enterprise network. You may even struggle to define your network perimeter anymore, mainly if you use cloud infrastructure, have remote data centers and branch offices, or rely on “Internet of Things” (IoT)...
Though every business network is unique, they all broadly fall under one of the following architecture categories: centralized (or decentralized using server clusters) and distributed. Let's discuss how centralized vs. distributed network management models work,...
