Backhauling Internet-bound traffic from branches to a data center to consume traditional security services is expensive and adds latency. Many organizations are improving their network infrastructure by adopting SD-WAN and enabling Direct Internet Access (DIA). With the Zscaler and the Cisco SD-WAN integration, you can rapidly gain access to cloud-delivered security in minutes. This market-leading API automation makes it very fast and agile to deploy and manage the network and security environment of hundreds or even thousands of remote sides.

Security Service Edge (SSE) is one of the main building blocks under the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture. SSE focuses on providing security capabilities at the network edge.

Cisco SD-WAN provides automated integrations with Equinix that allow you to turn up edge devices as well as connectivity to cloud environments directly from vManage, providing a centralized place to manage all your infrastructure.

Traditional methods of backhauling Internet-bound traffic from branches to a data center for traditional security services is expensive and latency intensive. Many organizations are improving their network infrastructure by adopting a SASE (Secure Access Services Edge) architecture. Cisco SD-WAN and Cisco Secure Edge (formerly Umbrella) SASE integrations give organizations the ability to leverage cloud-delivered security in minutes. This demonstration is designed to give an overview of the integration between Umbrella DNS Layer Security and Cisco SD-WAN.

Carrier Neutral Facilities (CNF) are data centers that operate entirely independent of network providers. They are very large connectivity hubs that provide their customers with access to other services, vendors and solutions.

Equinix Fabric is a software-defined network connectivity tool provided by Equinix that allows you to dynamically and securely connect between physical and virtual infrastructure. Equinix Fabric provides automated provisioning that allows the creation of direct connections and allows you to adjust bandwidth as needed in near real time.

Introducing Fortinet Unified SASE, a global unified protection across your entire network with a single management console, agent and policies.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of digital enterprise, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and Security Service Edge (SSE) have emerged as pivotal frameworks for enhancing enterprise security. These technologies promise to revolutionize how organizations approach network security, offering integrated solutions that are both agile and scalable to meet the demands of AI-driven workloads. This panel brings together thought leaders from leading SASE/SSE suppliers to discuss the transformative potential of these technologies. Rather than focusing on supplier-specific features, the discussion will center on real-world use cases and the broader impact of SASE/SSE on enterprise security. Key topics will include the integration of AI with SASE/SSE, strategic deployment considerations, and the future trajectory of these technologies in supporting secure, AI-ready infrastructures.
