While SD-WAN solutions address this challenge with a more flexible and dynamic connectivity strategy, early-to-market solutions failed to consider the security needs of these connections. The one thing that the traditional model had going for it was that all traffic was at least inspected and secured using the full stack of enterprise-grade security solutions deployed at the core. Direct access to cloud and internet services from the branch means that protection is no longer available. Unfortunately, the vast majority of SD-WAN solutions on the market provide little more than a VPN and a stripped down firewall to protect this critical link in today's distributed networks, which leaves organizations poorly protected and highly vulnerable.
