The widespread adoption of Software-Defined Wide-Area-Network ( SD-WAN ) in recent years has caused many to wonder whether WAN optimization is still necessary. The encryption problem : Most enterprise traffic today is encrypted and data compression and deduplication are ineffective on encrypted traffic.

IT organizations are becoming increasingly aware of the benefits of software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN). Most SD-WAN vendors provide basic security features such as encryption, layer 2 access control, and possibly some basic firewall functionality. and reach $8.05 billion in 2021.

For the past two years, Cato Networks has led a revolution in enterprise networking: the convergence of software-defined wide area networks ( SD-WAN ) and network security delivered as a single cloud service. Convergence is the antithesis tobundling of point solutions.

MPLS cost reduction is the target of the emerging SD-WAN market that is bustling with solutions looking to take the corporate wide area network to a whole new level. MPLS isnt encrypted by default: MPLS relies on the carrier private network for security because the data doesnt flow on the public Internet.

It requires organizations to implement both organizational and technical measures to safeguard their networks and information systems. This includes measures such as risk management, incident detection and response, regular security assessments, and encryption of sensitive data.

With MPLS revenue streams at risk, the carriers are pursuing a two-prong strategy: augmenting MPLS with Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) and adding value-add services to the core network with Network Function Virtualization (NFV). We call this the Network Function Cloudification (NFCL) fabric.

Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WANs) promised to address the high costs, rigidity and limitations of private MPLS services. To achieve those aims, SD-WAN nodes form an encrypted overlay across the underlying data services, such as xDSL and 4G Internet services, or private services, such as MPLS circuits.

While SD-WANs are a valuable first step towards evolving the wide area network , they only address a small part of the dissolved enterprise perimeter challenge. But DIA also significantly expands the attack surface far beyond that which can be protected by the basic firewall provided in SD-WAN appliances.

Simplifying Networking and Security in the Cloud Integrating security appliances is the common approach touted by large security vendors, but that only perpetuates the sizing and scalability problems inherent in appliances. The more devices that NAT, the more end-to-end encrypted sessions we run, the less visibility we have into our traffic.
