SD-WAN Transforms to SD Branch – Taking Software Defined One Step Beyond

Presented by

Patrick Grillo, Senior Director, Security Solutions, Fortinet

About this talk

The benefits of SD-WAN are clear as evidenced by the massive market opportunity being forecast over the next several years. But as usual in a Wild, Wild West market not all SD-WAN solutions are equal. Besides satisfying the wide area networking requirements of SD-WAN – optimizing application performance, direct Cloud access and reducing WAN costs – leading SD-WAN solutions should also have comprehensive security at the top of their feature list. But that security capability should extend to the entire branch office infrastructure not just the wide area connection. That’s why SD-Branch is starting to take hold and should be part of your branch office transformation journey. This session will focus on the key network and security features that any SD-Branch solution should have in order to be considered for your network and how branch level security should be an extension of your larger enterprise-wide security infrastructure.
