Secure SD-WAN
without compromise
A new WAN and security architecture
for the cloud-first enterpriseChange is upon us
As applications migrate to the cloud and theworld becomes increasingly mobile, a router-centric
WAN model that backhauls all branch application
traffic over MPLS to the data center negatively
impacts application performance – it simply
doesn’t make sense. The majority of branch traffic
is destined for the internet, and applications are
no longer centralized.

Networktraffic patterns
have shifted

The fundamental
nature of apps
has changed

So why continue to backhaul clouddestined branch traffic to the data center?

Security needs to change
when everything is open
and connectedRethink the status quo
Organizations around the world are embracing SD-WAN
as an alternative to cumbersome router-centric WANs.
But the common approaches create challenges, and not all SD-WANs are created equal:• Direct-to-internet connections increase the attack surface and highlight theneed for advanced security services to protect branch locations from threats.

• Installing next-generation firewalls at every branch to address security needs
is too expensive and untenable to manage across hundreds or thousands ofbranch locations.

• Basic SD-WANs force businesses to conform to the constraints of the networkor fail to deliver the feature sets that today’s digital businesses require.

These shifts are forcing organizations to embrace new wide area network and security
models to deliver the experience users expect and to realize the full transformational
promise of the cloud.
