Today, as an IT professional, you must be able to offer a high-performance, scalable, and secure network to all employees, no matter where they are. Ensuring that your network meets these criteria is crucial in an era where remote work and cloud services are becoming the norm. This whitepaper delves into how you can achieve these goals using SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) and SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) technologies.
This whitepaper explains how a software-defined network (SDN) and cloud-based security features effectively solve these challenges. SD-WAN enhances network performance by allowing more flexible and efficient use of bandwidth, leading to improved application performance and user experience. Coupled with SASE, which integrates security functions directly into the network architecture, you can achieve unparalleled network security and efficiency.
The SASE approach enables you to treat your entire IT infrastructure as one flexible, cohesive unit. This unification simplifies network management and enhances security by consolidating multiple security services into a single cloud-based service. Security concepts such as micro-segmentation, identity-based security, and universal security policies are integrated into the SASE framework, providing your distributed workforce with true security in a highly scalable and flexible network. These advanced security measures ensure that only authorized users can access specific network segments, significantly reducing the risk of breaches.
Moreover, the role of cloud services, including IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and SaaS (Software as a Service), is also evolving. SD-WAN and SASE complement these services by providing secure and optimized access, enhancing the overall performance and security of your IT operations. The concept works well with today’s complex hybrid environments, seamlessly integrating on-premises infrastructure with cloud services.
