How AI is changing cybersecurity for IT decision makers?

How AI is changing cybersecurity for IT decision makers?

AI is being increasingly used for threat detection, malware analysis, insider threat identification and analyst support. However, on the flip side, AI is also being used for attack-driven purposes like advanced password cracking and defender-aware malware. Artificial intelligence is the new technological frontier. The more you look at new technologies the more widely you will hear it being mentioned. Not just with regard to the solutions it will provide in the near future but solutions it alrea

What is the Gartner SD-WAN SASE security model?

What is the Gartner SD-WAN SASE security model?

The Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) model represents a fundamental shift in how enterprise networking and security are designed. Gartner first introduced this concept in 2019 to address the limitations of traditional, data-center-centric architectures. As UK enterprise organisations shift toward cloud-first strategies, the old model of backhauling traffic to a central hub has become inefficient - SASE solves this by converging software-defined networking with comprehensive cloud-delivered secu

How does SD-WAN & SASE help my business?

How does SD-WAN & SASE help my business?

SD-WAN with SASE helps simplify network management, security and agility through cloud-first architectures - enabling remote workforces. Why adopt SD WAN & SASE? A SASE solution combines WAN services with a range of security functions which include Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), Firewall as a Service (FWaaS), and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). Businesses are facing a considerable challenge to decrease network complexity and cost at the same time as meeting

It's not SD-WAN vs. SASE, but SD-WAN and SASE

It's not SD-WAN vs. SASE, but SD-WAN and SASE

SD-WAN and SASE are complementary - SD-WAN handles network access and performance, whilst SASE adds more advanced security features. Don't be confused by false choices: It's not SD WAN vs. SASE, but SD WAN and SASE. Many IT vendors are like the proverbial hardware store that only sells one kind of tool: when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Such vendors compulsively frame issues in ways that inevitably paint their product or service as the ideal solution, typically gl

SASE vendor comparison: Features and evaluation criteria

SASE combines SD-WAN with security features such as NGFW, SWG, CSAB and ZTNA. Introduction: SASE features and evaluation criteria The 2020 stampede to remote work has finally reversed into a slow migration of employees back to the office. However, IT’s reaction to the sudden dispersal of colleagues across hundreds of broadband connections and insecure home wireless networks fuelled two technologies that will long outlast the pandemic. First, SD-WAN proved indispensable at delivering enterpris

Market Guide to Next-generation Firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS)

FWaaS combines next generation firewall features with cloud scalability. The migration of enterprise workloads to the cloud has fundamentally altered the requirements for network security. Traditional security models, which relied on a protected physical perimeter and hardware firewalls to control traffic, are no longer sufficient in an era of distributed applications and remote work. As organisations shift from internal systems to SaaS products and host custom applications on cloud infrastruct
