Software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) solutions improve network control, security, performance and visibility. Emerging as WAN technology evolved, SD-WAN enables businesses to deploy a more intelligent and dynamic WAN environment that boosts performance while keeping costs low and reducing complexity.
Secure Agility provides managed SD-WAN services to help businesses in Australia gain more flexibility and control over their network architecture. Our solutions are designed to meet performance, budget and compliance constraints. Here, we explore 5 reasons why your business could benefit from an SD-WAN deployment.
Deploy cutting-edge SD-WAN solutions from reputable providers like Cisco and Fortinet can help your business drastically improve bandwidth utilisation. At the same time, you benefit from increased application performance while enhancing network security. With adaptable design and rapid scalability, you can ensure your current and future demands are supported.
Businesses once relied on private circuits from carriers to achieve connectivity. This led to low bandwidth with higher costs. As new innovations like cloud environments and VPNs became more common, this created issues with network management, security and scaling. SD-WAN solves these issues by functioning as a centralised management centre for your entire network infrastructure, combining router, firewall and VPN technologies.
The result is simplified management, with easier policy-setting and scalability. SD-WAN enables you to manage your network and handle fluctuating traffic while achieving full visibility. The software-defined aspect of managed SD-WAN solutions means you have control over which traffic uses what circuit in real time.
Benefit from a higher return on investment compared to traditional WAN ecosystems with an SD-WAN deployment. In addition to being less expensive, the ability to expand or contract the number of Data as a Service (DaaS) solutions to suit your needs reduces both upfront and ongoing costs.
Traditional WAN ecosystems made it costly and complicated to change carriers and make updates to the network environment. SD-WAN, by comparison, is incredibly adaptable as it doesn’t rely on a carrier or specific source for connectivity. Your managed ICT service provider can help your business add new network assets into the portal and control them with the same policies without risking configuration drift.
SD-WAN deployments are also customised to suit your exact business requirements. Whether you’re an SME looking for a more cost-effective middle market solution, a multi-site government entity or large corporation requiring an enterprise-level SD-WAN, managed SD-WAN service providers can find the right option for you.
Businesses of all sizes across all industries face increasingly complex cyber security threats and requirements as more applications and systems move to the cloud. SD-WAN simplifies security with a cloud firewall. Other features include integrated encryption and the ability to segment network traffic to enhance data protection.
All branches of a network are connected in an SD-WAN ecosystem, with cloud access built in. Cisco Meraki, for example, works by building a tunnel back to headquarters so workers can take devices home and still securely access on-premises business resources with the same interface.
