TrueCONNECT™ SASE: Realizing Comprehensive Network Protection

Share:

The revolution in business operation motivated the prevalence of remote office and the development on cloud-network convergence, SD-WAN and edge computing. As the enterprise network applications keep transforming, it is hard to satisfy the diverse needs of distributed enterprises with traditional network infrastructure. They need a secure and stable network that can enhance agility and responsiveness, whereas minimizing threats of vulnerability and operating cost.

Leveraging the global resources , CITIC Telecom CPC launched TrueCONNECT™ SASE service to satisfy the rising security demands. The service is built upon a new paradigm to distributed infrastructure that secures and simplifies networks with an optimized topology, relocating security protection to the network perimeter and reducing complexities. Flexibility, trust and scalability are improved with a granular, identity-based access model.

TrueCONNECT™ SASE targets at SD-WAN users, which allows an integration with TrueCONNECT™ Hybrid SD-WAN service to achieve intelligent connectivity. It is unlike traditional practices that overlay SD-WAN, firewalls, IPS and multiple network and security solutions, instead, it realizes a more secure and robust SD-WAN service and reduce management challenges. Through the flexible and user-friendly SD-WAN orchestrator tool, distributed enterprises can directly and automatically steer network traffic that links all evolving edges, including headquarters, branch offices, datacenters and cloud edges.

SASE with Zero Trust Networking

Based on Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), our TrueCONNECT™ SASE service firmly adheres to the ”Never Trust, Always Verify” principle, which differs from “Trust But Verify” as in traditional edge models. In other words, ZTNA enables enterprises to reduce exposure on cloud platforms and keep the core assets out of views, further enhancing their security. Here are the three advantages of our service over traditional network and security infrastructure:

。Zero Attack Surface: Applications has no exposure on the Internet, which is unreachable for cyberattack
。Zero network access: Connect users to apps, not corporate networks, to prevent lateral movement
。Zero passthrough connections: Proxy architecture for better cyber threat and data protection.

Accelerate Digital Transformation with Evolved SD-WAN

The security of SD-WAN has alarmed enterprises as it becomes more common, especially with the new normal of remote offices and mobile businesses under the pandemic. The new working arrangement intensifies security threats and vulnerabilities, putting data assets in danger. To ensure information security, enterprises are recommended to access them with a trustworthy network.

Through ZTNA, TrueCONNECT™ SASE service can achieve a more secure SD-WAN network topology integrated with our intelligent SD-WAN solution. Hence, enterprises can enjoy working with an optimized and agile network with highest level of security.
