A Software-defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) is a virtual WAN architecture. It combines traditional WAN technologies, such as MPLS and broadband connections allowing enterprises to leverage any transport service to securely connect users to applications without any bandwidth penalties.
Organisations can connect all their offices to a central network in the cloud, which can increase control, network speed and flexibility.
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 the Umbrella cloud or by an in-built capability of the router, enterprises can gain visibility into and control of major SaaS and Internet applications.
Protect users – connect direct to the cloud
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.
Improve user experiences – broader applications
TThe network efficiency that comes with SD-WAN creates a better user application experience and reduces cost for organizations.
Reduce exposure to threats – full security stack
Rearchitecting the enterprise WAN and branch networks into SD-WAN creates exposure to threats and additional security complexity. Cisco SD-WAN offers a full security stack to protect against major forms of attacks arising due to opening branches to the internet.
