Modernizing enterprise connectivity through SD-WAN and SASE

As organizations adopt hybrid work, cloud-first approaches, and distributed applications, legacy WAN architectures no longer suffice. Traditional MPLS networks are expensive, inflexible, and fail to meet modern security and performance needs.

SD-WAN and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) are transforming enterprise connectivity by integrating cloud-native networking and security.

This session provides technology and business leaders with a roadmap to modernize their networks, striking a balance between cost, security, and performance.
