The Buyer's Guide to Secure SD-WAN
Whether you're a first-time buyer or considering an upgrade, our guide has the key criteria to evaluate Secure SD-WAN solutions. Discover the five key considerations you must take into account.
Why Customers Choose SD-WAN
Our costs - both for the project and maintenance - are going down because we don't need resources locally, we have centralized everything. If we want new service on a train, we define the policy then give the hardware to the operator, who installs it.
VR Group
Reliable communication from one restaurant to all related systems ensured that the network didn't impact operations and meant downtime and loss of revenue was far less likely.
Burger King
The migration was unbelievably easy. We gave our policies to our partner magellan and one day later, we received the complete set of policies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SD-WAN?
SD-WAN, or Software-Defined Wide-Area Networking, is a technique for using software to make wide area networks more intelligent and flexible. SD-WAN typically begins with connecting sites directly to the internet over commodity broadband links instead of sending all traffic back to a regional office via private lines.
What are the benefits of SD-WAN?
Benefits of Forcepoint Secure SD-WAN include the following:
Centralized management
Improved application performance
Protection against advanced threats
Reduced operating costs
How much does SD-WAN cost?
SD-WAN costs are determined by factors, including the type of deployment, the size of the network, the number of locations to connect, the type and amount of data transiting the network and any existing infrastructure that may be leveraged when deploying an SD-WAN solution.
What is SD-WAN security?
SD-WAN security helps organizations enable effortless connection to cloud resources while protecting users, data and IT environments from attack.
What is an SD-WAN solution?
Ad SD-WAN solution applies software-defined networking principles to the wide area network.
What is an SD-WAN provider?
SD-WAN providers enable organizations to deploy SD-WAN technology.
What is an SD-WAN appliance?
SD-WAN appliances are physical or virtual controllers located on-premises or in the cloud that connect an organization’s users to applications, services and workloads.
How do SD-WAN appliances work?
SD-WAN appliances and products are designed to overcome the challenges of ensuring fast and secure connectivity for branch locations and hybrid workforces. The traditional wide area network uses a hub-and-spoke model that requires all traffic to flow through a central data center. For organizations with a highly distributed workforce, this model adds unacceptable levels of latency that negatively affect user experiences and productivity. Additionally, legacy WANs are built with costly Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) connections that are time-consuming to manage and deploy, preventing organizations from scaling easily and cost-efficiently. SD-WAN overcomes these issues by creating a virtual overlay for the network that abstracts network connections and enables the use of additional, low-cost transport services that add redundancy and flexibility.
What is Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)?
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is data forwarding technology that increases the speed and controls the flow of network traffic.
What is SD-WAN vs MPLS?
SD-WAN is a networking technology that uses software to make wide area networks more intelligent and flexible by connecting sites directly to the internet over commodity broadband links. Configurations and access policies are centrally managed and easily applied across all sites, removing the need to manual administer each WAN device individually. MPLS is data forwarding technology for network traffic that directs data through a path via labels instead of requiring complex lookups in a routing table at every stop. Traditional networking technology, MPLS, has seen competition from SD-WAN solutions to meet today's high demands and expanding needs for networked business-critical systems.
