POV: Remote Work Setups & Summer Cybersecurity

Summer may be all about beach vibes and flexible remote work setups, but your cybersecurity posture can’t take a vacation. We reached out to our LinkedIn community to ask, “How do you ensure that business access remains secure and speedy?” Here’s what you shared:

• SD-WAN for the win – 25%
• SASE saves the day – 39%
• VPN and hope for the best – 33%
• Hm…not sure! – 3%

Let’s dive into these insights and unpack what these answers reveal about the challenges of modern remote work. Discover what steps your business should take to stay secure and efficient in this evolving digital landscape.

SD-WAN for the win: Speed meets control across locations

For distributed teams, SD-WAN offers the flexibility to optimize connectivity across locations without compromising cybersecurity. It dynamically routes traffic based on performance and business policies, ensuring applications run smoothly.

Why businesses love it:

• Bandwidth optimization
• Centralized management
• Built-in security policies

However, SD-WAN alone doesn’t cover user-level cybersecurity, especially for mobile or hybrid workers with remote work setups.

SASE saves the day: Security that follows the user

As teams become more mobile and cloud-centric, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) shines. It aims to simplify management, enhance cybersecurity and elevate user experience via one cloud-native architecture. As a result, it offers the full package “connectivity + protection”, all delivered from the cloud.

Why it’s the future:

• Identity-based access
• Consistent protection across locations and devices
• Cloud-native architecture

SASE is ideal for modern businesses that need connectivity + protection, everywhere users go.

VPN and hope: Why it’s no longer enough

VPNs had their moment. But with today’s complex threats, they’re simply not built for scale or precision. They lack visibility, segment poorly and create a single point of failure. “Hope for the best” is not a strategy, especially when cybersecurity is critical for business continuity.

Hm... not sure? You’re not alone
