Secure SD-WAN
By combining SD-WAN functionality, as well as security features of a firewall into a single device, Secure SD-WAN eliminates the need for multiple devices and reduces complexity while delivering an improved user experience, instant ROI, and simplified operations.
SaskTel’s Secure SD-WAN provides consistent security enforcement across all edges by combining a next-generation firewall with advanced SD-WAN networking capabilities. Secure SD-WAN provides your business with:
- Flexibility. Support for Hybrid WAN solutions combines private WAN and internet links and allows you the flexibility to quickly adapt to your changing business needs.
- Efficient Operations. Simplify operations with our fully managed SD-WAN service which includes centralized orchestration, reporting and enhanced analytics.
- Application Steering. Optimize application performance over hybrid or Internet links with direct, secure access to enterprise or cloud applications.
- Self-Healing. If one network link fails, traffic will automatically fall to another connected link and continue operating with minimal or no disruption of network traffic.
- Cloud Ready. Extend your WAN seamlessly for access to Public or Hybrid clouds.
- Customer Portal. Monitor your network bandwidth, view logs, reports and security policies from our web-based portal.
- Simplified Deployment. Devices are provisioned and configured automatically, simplifying deployment by reducing the time and complexity of installation.
- Comprehensive Security on-premises and in the Cloud. Comprehensive security options are available by utilizing a built-in next-generation firewall (NGFW) combining SD-WAN and security capabilities into a unified solution to preserve the security and availability of your network.
- Effectively Manage Costs. SD-WAN integrates cost-effective and scalable connectivity options, thus offering better control over costs and capital expenditures.
