No need for expensive MPLS or public internet connection fees to transmit data securely between cloud applications, sites and devices. Reduce IT staff time by using a graphical interface (UI) that's easy to use. Create custom policy quickly for multiple locations from a central web portal. Cloud computing changes traffic flow fundamentally, posing performance and security problems for networks. SD-WAN can help you address these challenges. Security SD WANs include security technologies such as dynamic encrypted tunnels (which protect data transmissions) and network intrusion prevention/detection systems. They also provide traffic visibility and reporting solutions. It is important that companies don't choose between performance and security in selecting the optimal solution. Therefore, a top SD-WAN provider will combine with leading cybersecurity vendors to ensure the maximum performance and protection of networks. Managed SD-WANs support cloud-first strategies by routing application traffic directly to the nearest cloud gateway or data center using the most optimal path based on network performance and security requirements. 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.
