  • Plans for Remote Worker SD-WAN Deployments

    The rise in popularity of remote workstyles is one of the major contributing factors to the increasingly distributed nature of modern IT environments. One of the ways networking teams have been dealing with secure connectivity to remote workers is SD-WAN technology. Recent research by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group examining the use of SD-WAN in SASE strategies uncovered some nuanced challenges organizations are facing in their pursuit of more extensive SD-WAN rollouts to remote sites.

  • Remote work, cloud adoption, and other IT trends have driven increasing interest in secure access service edge (SASE) architectures. Networking teams especially tout this technology because they have a history of securing connectivity with SD-WAN. Recent research by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group investigated how this team is converging with cybersecurity teams to securely connect their distributed environments.

  • The AI and Automation Mandate for SD-WAN

    In pursuit of their secure network connectivity goal, networking teams are using SD-WAN technology to support highly distributed IT environments. However, any efficiency gained from this technology can quickly be overshadowed by the massive burden of overseeing hundreds to potentially hundreds of thousands of sites in enterprise and even midmarket organizations. Recent research by TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group shows that networking professionals consider artificial intelligence (AI) and automation crucial to relieving the burden of this situation while ensuring cybersecurity remains a priority.

  • Cloud Detection and Response

    Increasingly dynamic cloud environments are presenting visibility challenges for security. Indeed, the majority of organizations claim that lack of access to physical networks, the dynamic nature of cloud-native applications, and elastic cloud infrastructure create blind spots, making security monitoring challenging. Additionally, nearly all organizations experienced a cloud security incident in the last year, which can result in application downtime, unauthorized access, data loss, and compliance fines.

  • Ransomware is widely considered a critical and existential threat to the viability of any business. Given the high frequency of attacks and the impacts of successful ones such as data loss, many organizations are left with damages that have an effect well beyond IT. Attackers often undermine key infrastructure components and expose significant gaps, so IT leaders must focus on protecting and further leveraging their backup and recovery infrastructure to remove risk and minimize business impact.
