What is Fortinet Secure SD-WAN?
Fortinet Secure SD-WAN is a solution designed to replace legacy branch routers, enabling small and midsized businesses (SMBs) to optimize user experience, enhance operational efficiency, and mitigate risks. It simplifies the management of WAN infrastructure, providing centralized management through FortiGate Cloud, and integrates advanced security features directly into the SD-WAN, ensuring comprehensive protection against cyber threats.
How does Overlay-as-a-Service (OaaS) work?
Overlay-as-a-Service (OaaS) is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering from Fortinet that provides managed overlay connectivity. It allows organizations to quickly deploy and interconnect locations without the need for self-hosting or extensive IT expertise. OaaS simplifies the process of establishing secure VPN tunnels between sites, reducing configuration errors and operational costs, making it ideal for lean organizations.
What challenges do SMBs face with legacy WAN solutions?
SMBs often face several challenges with legacy WAN solutions, including complexity in management, the need for specialized expertise in VPN configuration and routing protocols, and a lack of application layer visibility, which complicates troubleshooting. Additionally, legacy solutions may not provide an optimal user experience due to inefficient traffic steering and insufficient security measures, making it difficult for SMBs to meet their connectivity and collaboration needs.
