Use encryption: Try using encrypted email services or install an encryption plugin for your email client to protect the content of your emails from being intercepted or read by unauthorized individuals. Sometimes these can be difficult to spot, so always take a close look at both the email and its source.

Detecting malware and DDoS attacks You can detect malware and DDoS attacks by looking for unusual traffic volumes, unexpected traffic destinations or sources, or abnormal protocol usage. Correlate the data with other information, such as firewall logs, threat intelligence feeds, and endpoint security data.

In many infrastructures, the inflection points are at the network edge, where VPN gateways authenticate and encrypt remote-access traffic. This configuration is known as a “split-tunnel” configuration and is set up by rules to exclude specific ports, protocols, or networks. More advanced VPNs can do this by application type.

It provides a secure connection by encrypting traffic before being forwarded out to its destination over the internet. Just about every firewall vendor provides their own VPN deployment option which could be via a client, clientless, or both. With that said, the two most common VPN protocols are IPSEC and SSL VPN.

Any SD-WAN should build a virtual overlay of encrypted tunnels between locations. The SD-WAN make configuring this mesh of tunnels simple, managing the encryption keys, creating the tunnels, and automating their full mesh setup. The most common way to deliver threat protection at a branch is to deploy a local firewall or UTM appliance.

Yet, MPLS as a service offering and as protocol is limited in many ways: MPLS requires an end to end physical control of the connection: to achieve its QoS objectives dedicated infrastructure has to be deployed to all connected locations and coordinated through the carrier.

Tools such as firewalls, data encryption, two-factor authentication, and a VPN can help, while consistent employee training on best practices for secure remote working is also key.
