No need for expensive MPLS or public internet connection fees to transmit data securely between cloud applications, sites and devices. Use a user-friendly graphic user interface (UI) to streamline network management and save IT time. Create custom policy quickly for multiple locations from a central web portal. Cloud computing fundamentally alters traffic flows, creating performance and security challenges for networks. SD-WAN is a solution to these problems. Security SD WAN solutions incorporate security technologies that protect data transmissions across office locations and between remote users, including dynamic encrypted tunnels, network intrusion detection/prevention systems and traffic visibility/reporting solutions. To ensure maximum network performance, the ideal SD WAN provider combines its services with those of top cybersecurity companies. Managed SDWANs help support cloud first strategies by routing traffic to the nearest cloud gateway, or data center based on performance and security needs. This improves UCaaS quality by eliminating backhauling to data centers and reducing latency; further, SD-WANs increase existing security infrastructure's efficiency by permitting traffic to trusted destinations/applications to bypass extensive scanning/analysis equipment thereby freeing up resources for more suspicious traffic, leading to significant cost savings for enterprises.
