Frequently Asked Questions
Questions? We have answers!
What is Secure SD-WAN?
SD-WAN is an abbreviation for software defined wide area network. Secure SD-WAN is a networking solution that uses software-defined intelligence to optimize and secure traffic across multiple network connections, improving performance and reliability while simplifying management.
Why do I need SD-WAN?
If your company is dealing with internet outages, a poor performing network, or is expanding, SD-WAN can help you manage and optimize all three challenges while dramatically scaling and securing your business.
How is SD-WAN different from MPLS?
MPLS relies on private circuits that can be costly and inflexible. SD-WAN leverages multiple connection types and dynamically routes traffic to improve efficiency, visibility, and scalability.
How much does SD-WAN cost?
Costs vary depending on the number of locations, bandwidth requirements, security needs, and deployment complexity. Many organizations realize savings by reducing dependence on legacy network infrastructure.
How does Secure SD-WAN protect my business?
Secure SD-WAN solutions incorporate encryption, segmentation, and policy enforcement capabilities designed to help protect users, applications, and data.
Can SD-WAN support cloud applications?
Absolutely. Secure SD-WAN is specifically designed to optimize access to cloud-based applications and services, helping improve performance and user experience.
How long does implementation take?
Deployment timelines depend on the size and complexity of the environment. Many organizations can begin realizing value quickly through phased implementation approaches.
