The network has never been more essential to organizations and is undergoing fundamental change. Employees, customers, and applications require better experiences and more secure access in the increasingly changing landscapes. Our panel of cross-sectional experts recommend areas networking leaders should focus on in 2022 to position their organizations for success.

SASE remains a major architectural shift with many components -- zero trust network architecture (ZTNA), cloud access security broker (CASB), SD-WAN, and now a new term: Security Service Edge (SSE). For adoption to be truly successful, engineering teams must explore hands-on how different solutions address SSE and how they integrate into broader SASE architectures. Use our Advanced Technology Center (ATC) to launch SSE integration labs on-demand, bookmark helpful content for reference, follow related topics to curate content specific to your needs, and connect directly with WWT technical experts.
