It’s never been easier to launch a cloud service; or to consume such a service. No-friction SaaS applications compete on features because no central network planning or sales cycle is required any longer. Often SaaS applications are sold into a team or a department. Other applications—Dropbox, OneDrive—are picked up by users simply because they significantly enhance worker productivity. Central IT often has no knowledge that these applications are used, how they’re used, or by whom. Traditional perimeter firewalls protect applications and data stored within your on-prem network. FWs additionally filter applications and URLs accessed outside the enterprise. But data stored…

Many large enterprises consider their internal networks safe—protected by perimeter firewalls and VPN solutions—and that security threats are primarily present external to their networks. In reality, the enterprise network attack surface has experienced a multifold expansion brought about by trends in work-from-anywhere, Direct Internet Access (DIA), application-and-data migration into the cloud, BYOD, IoT, and increasingly sophisticated hacker attacks with lateral movement. Corporate “internal” networks are often as insecure as “external” networks, if you can even still find the borders between these. ZTNA is a modern network architecture that brings back the security essential to your corporate network. The approach is…

Advanced initiatives can sometimes require large IT departments to research, design, build, and deploy. Not every enterprise has the resources and specialized staff to do this in a cost and time-efficient manner. MSPs (Managed Service Providers) can be very helpful in improving SASE deployment scalability when enterprises do not want or cannot implement SASE by themselves.

Deploying point solutions to address the growing needs of a remote workforce and the challenges of an evolving threat landscape is straining the Enterprise bank. As organizations struggle to balance network requirements and IT costs, SASE, with its cloud-native architecture and software-centric approach, is emerging as an effective solution to slash the unpredictable and unsustainable cost spikes.

As a reseller you have the broadest visibility of what is truly happening out there: across multiple industries; different size customers; companies of different profiles. Your expert reputation is well established and you deploy robust solutions with confidence. Yet many in your shoes have been hesitant to offer security in their portfolios—historically much-too-complex.

SMEs are the most cost-conscious of organizations; there’s no money for large IT teams, nor for stacks of single-purpose boxes per location: it adds up quickly with more locations. Direct Internet Access (DIA) has been a life-saver (read: cost-saver). Employees using their own tablets, smartphones, and laptops has phenomenally brought down user device costs and headaches—employees even upgrade and refresh their devices themselves! Cloud applications are another absolution: no more servers, OS upgrades, boxes, more boxes, slow performance—with SaaS you pay-as-you-go and instantly scale up/down.

A third (33%) of all organizations have failed to successfully implement their cloud strategies in 2019. Despite best efforts post-migration, network performance, security, and management problems continue to shoot up. As failed cloud migrations glaringly highlight the need to reinvent traditional WAN networks, organizations are increasingly turning to Secure SD-WAN for the help they need to successfully move to the cloud. Who doesn’t want to move to the cloud today? It’s scalable, flexible, and cost-efficient—everything that traditional data centers are not. Besides, users have grown increasingly mobile, making the “anytime, anywhere, and any-device” access the new normal for business continuity….
