It’s Time to Establish True Zero Trust and Enable Teams to Work From Anywhere

Your VPN Won’t Cut it Anymore

At the beginning of 2020, organizations scrambled to provide employees with the means to work remotely. As we continue into a remote-first world, organizations need to enable people to work from anywhere, with the same security and productivity as their HQ.

The only problem: VPN and SD-WAN-based networks weren’t designed for this new normal. Employees are unable to access the resources they need to perform their job, responsiveness of enterprise applications are significantly slower, and IT is overwhelmed with the sheer volume of troubleshooting legacy network issues.

This eBook with NetFoundry will demonstrate how to rapidly overcome the security, performance, and network management constraints of legacy networks and VPNs as you transition toward a longer-term remote work strategy.

Network Reassurance

Network verification is a new technology for managing network chaos and automating key IT tasks such as troubleshooting, compliance processes, audits and change windows. Verification has been used in other engineering disciplines, such as software and semiconductor design, but has never been viable for networking until recent breakthroughs that Forward Networks helped pioneer. Since 80-90% of large enterprises are looking to incorporate intent-based networking into their IT strategy in the next few years, now is the time to determine how a verification platform can fit into your architecture going forward, and which use cases will bring the most benefit for your organization.

Networking Guru’s Guide to Verification

Today, networks have become so large and complex, along with constant changes to accommodate new services and business requirements, that networking teams can no longer document or manage all the details end-to-end. With potentially tens of thousands of devices and billions of lines of code, until now there has been no way to automate the analysis of network designs to quickly verify what devices you have, how they’re connected, where traffic goes, whether it’s really working, or what needs to change. Network verification is a rapidly emerging technology that provides deep insight to network behavior end-to-end, as well as automating many network troubleshooting and remediation tasks. Organizations are leveraging verification to help avoid outages, facilitate compliance processes and accelerate change windows.

Druva Data Protection for VMware Cloud on AWS

Solution Brief

On-demand cloud compute and storage services have grown steadily as companies continue their digital transformation journey. As businesses look to reduce costs, increase agility and improve the efficiency of their data center operations, they are selectively moving workloads to the cloud. The result has been the creation of a new business model known as hybrid cloud.

The goal of the hybrid cloud is to bring portability and consistent operations to on-premises and cloud environments. VMware Cloud on AWS is a joint development effort between AWS and VMware to deliver such an integrated cloud solution.

Learn how, with VMware Cloud on AWS, customers can:

• Reduce operational overhead and get to the cloud faster by leveraging existing
skills, tools, and processes familiar to IT personnel
• Align costs to business needs with flexible consumption options and
investment protection
• Get a single inventory view of both on-premises and VMware Cloud on AWS
resources using vCenter server technology

Zero Trust Whitepaper

Modern cyberattacks are not limited to just network intrusion from the outside. Internal threat actors can often be found at the center of sophisticated attacks.

The Zero Trust model, based on the simple principle of “trust nobody”, defines rules which enhance the security of networks against attacks, whether they are initiated from the outside or within. However, with the rise of encryption of internet traffic, it is becoming increasingly difficult to implement the Zero Trust model in an effective way.

In this white paper, readers will learn about modern cyber threats, what the Zero Trust model is and how it can be used to protect users and data against such attacks, the role of visibility in the implementation of Zero Trust and how TLS decryption is essential for the implementation of a fool proof Zero Trust strategy.

Multi cloud app delivery solution that delivers a better experience

Multi-cloud app delivery solution from Citrix delivers reliability, performance, security, and single pane of glass management for all applications, on-premises and on Google Cloud Platform.

Cloud is changing the fundamentals of how IT teams deliver applications and optimize their performance. Applications are increasingly deployed farther from users, crossing networks outside of IT’s direct control. Instead of enterprise data centers, many apps now reside in public and hybrid cloud environments. There are even new breeds of applications, built upon microservices and containers.

Today, IT needs modern solutions that:

Extend on-premises, apps and infrastructure resources to the cloud

Maintain high levels of performance, user experience, and security across all applications, including microservices based apps

Sustain operational consistency across on-premises and cloud environments

These solutions are available for apps running on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) through the alliance of Citrix and Google Cloud.
