Network Infrastructure

For many organizations, the wide area network (WAN) infrastructure that connects an enterprise’s remote and branch offices has not changed for decades. However, as application are rapidly moving to the cloud ( SaaS and IaaS), the WAN needs to evolve in response.

Bob Laliberte, Senior Analyst with ESG, Inc., will explore the challenges many organizations face with legacy WAN environments, illustrate why a new solution is needed and highlight the business value of rearchitecting with SD-WAN. This will include reviewing customer examples and a TCO model to demonstrate the value to your business. Organizations will learn how SD-WAN provides a combination of pure economic benefits as well as agility and flexibility to help organizations be successful.

Distinguishing between good bots, bad bots, and humans is a major challenge. Today, over 50% of online traffic is generated by bots and they are involved in nearly every attack. Identifying malicious bots and safeguarding against them is now a top priority for organisations developing a sustainable security strategy.

Join us for this webinar to learn:
- How bots infect, propagate, and attack applications
- What types of application attacks are commonly performed by bots
- How you can defend against bad bots without disrupting the good ones

Large enterprises are adopting SD-WANs to lower costs, increase business agility and improve performance for multi-cloud applications. Yet many IT managers are grappling with uncertainty concerning remote site readiness and operational risks, which can impede SD-WAN rollouts and negatively impact cloud service and SaaS performance. Lack of underlay visibility also leaves managers unable to manage service-level expectations and ensure a positive ROI.

Join ThousandEyes in this webinar to learn winning strategies for SD-WAN and hybrid WAN deployments, including:

• Benchmarking Internet-based and managed service connectivity to
compare performance, define success and identify KPIs prior to rollout
• Measure the performance impact of cloud-based security platforms,
such as Zscaler
• Eliminate SD-WAN blind spots with hop-by-hop network underlay
visibility
• Quickly troubleshoot Internet service provider issues across the
Internet
• Define processes for internal stakeholders to gain visibility into
external providers for managing hybrid connectivity, ISPs, cloud
services and SaaS applications

Wireless LAN isn’t just for offices and coffee shops. Today, IoT is everywhere, making the mobility and flexibility of wireless crucial even across large, sprawling areas such as warehouses, mines, airports, manufacturing facilities, hospitals, and even entire cities.

The need for large-scale wireless LAN is immense, but the ability of WiFi to meet that need is limited. Many organizations are instead deploying Private LTE, which can use a range of spectrums — including CBRS — to reduce congestion, enhance traffic flow, improve information security, and dramatically drive down costs.

In a live webinar on April 24, Cradlepoint’s Roger Billings, chief architect, and Matt Thueson, solutions engineer, will explore the benefits of Private LTE vs. WiFi for wireless LAN, and the potential ramifications within various commercial and public sector use cases.

Firewall rules must be reviewed and recertified regularly for an organization to stay secure, ensure continuous compliance and gain the optimal firewall performance. Firewall rules which are out of date, unused or unnecessary should be removed, as firewall bloat creates gaps in your security posture, causes compliance violations, and decreases firewall performance.

However, manual firewall rule recertification is complex, time-consuming and prone to errors.

Join Asher Benbenisty, AlgoSec’s Director of Product Marketing, on a special webinar introducing an application-centric approach to firewall recertification.

In this webinar Asher will cover:
• Why it is important to regularly review and recertify your firewall rules
• How to use application connectivity for firewall rule recertification
• How to automatically manage the rule-recertification process

Organizations know that cloud security is different than what they were used to doing on-premises...but what many don’t realize is that cloud introduces new vulnerabilities that their on-premises world never needed to account for.

In the future, 80% of cloud breaches will be due to misconfiguration, credentials mismanagement, or insider theft – not the cloud itself. Just what do organizations need to worry about in the cloud, and how can they remediate these new vulnerabilities?

Join us to discuss these new challenges and what organizations can do to better protect themselves in the Public Cloud.

Internet Service Providers are replacing hardware routers with virtual routers (vRouters) on x86 servers for Border Router, BNG and CG-NAT use cases. 6WIND recently announced ISP customers such as Excitel Broadband, Grape, JHComp and Minorisa are now deployed with 6WIND vRouters for use cases that service up to 200,000 users on Intel servers.

This Webinar contains information that helps Network Architects, Engineers and Managers at Internet Service Providers, Universities and educational institutions that serve as ISPs, and Integrators to increase performance while reducing costs by replacing hardware routers with vRouters on Intel servers. Customer success stories will be included.

Organizations have been forced to adapt to the new reality: Anyone can be targeted and many can be compromised. This has been the catalyst for many to tighten up operations and revamp ancient security practices. They bought boxes that blink and software that floods the SOC with alerts.

Is it enough? The overwhelming answer is: No.

This Black Hat-hosted presentation will:
- explore typical administration methods and how attackers exploit them
- provide the best methods of secure administration to protect privileged credentials

Businesses with SD-WAN often rely on the public Internet for connectivity. When these companies experience Internet unpredictability – glitching real-time applications (e.g. video and voice), inconsistent long-haul traffic, poor SaaS and IaaS performance, or compromised security and compliance – they turn to a growing number of Internet Core alternatives. How do they make the right choice?

In this webinar we will:

1. Compare different Internet alternatives for SD-WAN: optimized Internet, MPLS, Cloud MPLS, and SD-CORE
2. Discuss the advantages of Autonomous Network Control over AI-based Network Control
3. Quantify the performance advantages of Mode Core over public Internet for branch, data center, and cloud connectivity; and cloud-to-cloud connectivity
