How to Deploy OPAQ's Endpoint Protect

OPAQ is the premier networking and security cloud company. The OPAQ cloud is a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) platform that protects an organization’s entire distributed network – data centers, branch offices, remote users, and IoT devices across all ports and protocols. OPAQ delivers zero trust security-as-a-service using an infrastructure optimized for security and hyperscale performance. With OPAQ, organizations can implement and enforce consistent zero trust security policies, centrally monitor network and security performance, generate reports, and manage security infrastructure – all through a single cloud console. This enables customers to maintain secure access to systems and data no matter how the network evolves. To learn more, visit www.opaq.com.

Join Derek Gabbard as we explore the shift of security moving to the edge and how edge-based security enables organizations to implement a Zero Trust architecture.

The traditional network security model, in which traffic is routed through the data center for inspection and policy enforcement, is for all intents and purposes obsolete. Driven by the adoption of multi-cloud infrastructure and applications, mobility and distributed workforces, the focal point for security has shifted to users and devices. As a result, the current data center-centric approach to network security is struggling to support a load it was not designed to bear.

Join Derek Gabbard, OPAQ and Stel Valavanis, onShore as they explore the shift of security moving to the edge and how edge-based security enables organizations to implement a Zero Trust architecture.

Ransomware, one of the most prevalent cybersecurity threats, has been making big news by crippling governmental organizations and large corporations with household names, but the story has started to change. Hackers have turned their low-effort but highly successful scams on minor municipalities and small business. Almost half of all breaches last year targeted small businesses.

Prevention is essential in helping organizations avoid having their data held hostage by ransomware attackers, but your organization, your team, and your network need to be prepared for post-breach possibilities. Ransomware infections rapidly spread laterally from host to host in an attempt to bring companies to their knees. This is why segmenting the network and containing the threat is critical. Doing so is easier than you think.

Join us to see how you can:
● Shut down ransomware attacks without blowing up your budget;
● Segment your network using software without the complexity and cost associated with VLANs, routers, switches, and a host of in-house security experts;
● Gain insight into how other organizations are gaining greater visibility and control over their network assets.

Cyber security is complicated. Managing cyber risk is even more complicated, particularly for small- and midsize businesses that have limited financial and personnel resources to apply to this business priority. It’s not that SMB executives don’t understand the consequences of falling prey to cyber-attacks. They acknowledge that they should do more to improve their risk posture. However, they need help with understanding where best to invest their finite resources to reduce their exposures.

Forget the fear and uncertainty factor, and say goodbye to depending solely on fate and hope for risk management – this webcast is designed to equip SMBs with actionable steps to greatly improve their risk management posture and open up opportunities with customers, supply chain partners, and others who seek to do business with risk-savvy businesses.

OPAQ partners play a critical role in making enterprise-grade security accessible and affordable for midsize enterprises. The OPAQ partner program enables leading VARs, Managed Service Providers, and MSSPs to grow their business quickly and create new revenue opportunities that also equip them with a long-term competitive advantage.

Many security experts warn of a rising trend of lateralization attacks against organizations of all sizes. In these attacks, east-west movement within an organization’s internal network compromises other systems, with the ultimate goal of gaining administrative control over the entire network. Organizations can prevent lateral attacks by implementing microsegmentation. However, for many organizations, segmenting the network is very complex – traditional firewalls and VLANs make it difficult and costly to manage.

See how you can easily and flexibly implement software-defined network segmentation from the OPAQ Cloud without using firewalls or VLANs to confront the growing threat of lateralization attacks. In this webcast you’ll:

- See the latest tools that malicious actors are using to penetrate your network.

- Learn what leading-edge organizations are doing to gain greater visibility and control over their network assets.

- Understand what effective strategies are being implemented to segment the network using a software-defined approach.
