New York State Cybersecurity Conference
Stop by the Vandis booth at the New York State Cyber Security Conference.
Plus hear from Ryan Young, Vandis' Chief Technology Officer, as he presents The Importance of Security Service Edge in Today's Threat Landscape.
Session Topic: The Importance of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) in Today's Threat Landscape
Session Date/Time: Tuesday, June 4th at 11am EDT
Session Description:
The emergence of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) signifies a crucial shift in network security. With organizations transitioning to hybrid work models, the conventional VPN infrastructure exposes significant vulnerabilities, particularly by leaving firewalls susceptible to potential attacks. This vulnerability is exacerbated by the limitations inherent in legacy VPNs, such as providing broad network access without adequate segmentation, thereby increasing the risk of internal data breaches and unauthorized lateral movement within networks.
SASE emerges as a purpose-built solution for the contemporary era, offering a Zero Trust Access approach that fundamentally alters the security paradigm. By default, it grants application-level access, thereby reducing the attack surface by relocating the remote access architecture from dedicated firewalls. Additionally, SASE tackles performance issues commonly associated with legacy VPNs, such as traffic congestion and the 'trombone effect,' by facilitating connections to points-of-presence worldwide, thus enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.
Join us as we discuss how the transition from legacy VPNs to SASE is not merely a technological upgrade but a strategic maneuver to bolster cybersecurity defenses. Let's explore taking a proactive stance against the evolving threat landscape, so that organizations like yours are not left vulnerable due to outdated remote access solutions.
