The future will rely on an authentically Unified Zero Trust Networking platform – a singular, integrated platform meticulously crafted to seamlessly converges networking and security. What must Zero Trust Networking deliver?
Today, AWS announced Tunnel-less Connect on Cloud WAN. This new capability provides customers with a simple, high-performance mechanism to build a global SD-WAN architecture using AWS Global Network as a middle-mile transport network. With this capability, SD-WAN appliances can natively peer with Cloud WAN using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) without the need for tunneling. Native BGP support between SD-WAN appliances in a VPC and AWS Cloud WAN, without the need for tunnels, simplifies the extension of SD-WAN deployments in AWS cloud and enables access to AWS’ high bandwidth global network for branch-to-cloud connectivity. As part of this announcement, Versa Secure…
As cyber-attacks become increasingly sophisticated and the likelihood of threats in the infrastructure rise, our customers have explored new ways to not only secure the initial point of access but also mechanisms to continuously monitor their security posture.
