Cisco SD-WAN Security
Full security stack to protect SaaS and Internet applications

 

SD-WAN Security

 

SD-WAN enables efficient access to Internet and cloud applications, but enterprises need to be protected against security blind spots and other vulnerabilities.

Cisco SD-WAN provides full threat protection and visibility to guard against major web-based attacks. Delivered by means of the Umbrella cloud or by the in-built capability of the router, enterprises can gain visibility into and control of major SaaS and Internet applications.

 

Protect users, connected devices, and all traffic across the WAN

To help with the ever-increasing adoption of multicloud environments, SD-WAN offers total transport flexibility to connect directly with the cloud using the internet. The network efficiency that comes with SD-WAN creates a better user application experience and reduces cost for organizations. Unfortunately, all these benefits have a tradeoff - rearchitecting the enterprise WAN and branch networks into SD-WAN creates exposure to threats and additional security complexity.

How do you protect your newly implemented SD-WAN against internal and external threats? If you plan to deploy additional security devices or services on-premises, in the cloud, or both, could you scale easily for future traffic growth? How do you reduce the complexity of deploying and managing security solutions from multiple vendors? How about your visibility into traffic to or across branches and data centers?

Cisco® SD-WAN offer engineering leadership in both networking and security to include full-stack multilayer security capabilities on the platform and in the cloud. Its integrated on-premises and cloud security arms IT with advanced threat defense wherever it is needed - for branches connecting to multiple SaaS or IaaS clouds, to data centers, or everything on the internet.
