SD-WAN 2.0 for the enterprise home office

Seamlessly and securely extending the enterprise IT environment to the home office with SD-WAN 2.0

Teleworking is a growing phenomenon as exemplified by its growth over the last decade. Today’s pandemic has dramatically accelerated teleworking which has put an unexpected strain on enterprise networks. Concerns about security, productivity, cost efficiency all come up when enterprises are asked about their strategy to enable teleworking. Today’s SD-WAN technology has matured to a degree where these concerns can be addressed.

Nuage Networks has introduced SD-WAN 2.0 for the enterprise home office that enables their managed service provider partners to address this challenge. These partners can extend SD-WAN services to their enterprise customers quickly, efficiently, and cost effectively in any home environment with limited incremental cost and process change.

“The Work from Home (WFH) wave is sweeping organizations around the world, and it is likely to last beyond the current pandemic crisis. With that, it’s essential that organizations roll out additional secure remote networking capabilities for WFH scenarios. Nuage Networks’ SD-WAN 2.0 for the enterprise home office hits the mark with security, policy, and application control for the WFH office.”

“We expect the increase in remote working to persist after the current crisis. Nearly 75% of businesses are planning to make permanent changes to their working from home policies as a result of COVID-19, according to our recent survey. Businesses are looking for solutions to improve the performance and security of connections for people working remotely.”
