PRODUCT LAUNCH

ZTNA solution ideal for MSPs and their mid- market and SMB customers. CSE adds to SonicWall’s existing remote access solutions enabling the company to help any business no matter what phase they’re at in their transition to the cloud. “When we acquired Banyan in January, we said we would empower partners by delivering a security architecture for any stage of their customers’ evolving cloud journey,” said SonicWall CEO and president Bob VanKirk. “CSE is the first step of that delivery, with additional MSP-friendly components of the SSE stack to follow. We are redefining SSE for the SME market by combining simplicity and management with robust security, empowering organisations to embrace zero trust principles effortlessly. Our goal is to provide our partners and their customers with confidence that their data and resources are protected, regardless of where their workforce operates.” Cloud-delivered solution From VPN as a Service to ZTNA to SSE, CSE leverages existing network security infrastructure with a cloud-delivered solution that simplifies deployment and management while offering robust security capabilities suitable for organisations of all sizes. Because traditional appliance-based solutions are no longer sufficient in today’s evolving landscape of cloud applications, remote work and mobile devices, SonicWall has designed a set of offerings that integrate with SonicWall network security solutions to emphasise ease of deployment and management and flexibility to address any cloud migration use case. Additional key benefits for MSPs include: l Firewall connector: SonicWall customers can leverage CSE Connector integration within their Next-Generation firewalls

disrupting their current operations l Simplified remote access: CSE Connector integration in SonicOS 7.1.2 allows employees to securely access authorised applications from anywhere, on any single device, without having to deal with repetitive and complex VPN and Access Policy configurations l Monthly billing: The integration features the addition of CSE to the Service Provider Program to offer no-commitment, in arrears billing, which aligns with how MSPs charge their customers – with flexible and cost-effective license tiers l Regional compliance: The integration features a new CSE data centre hosted in Frankfurt, Germany to ease adoption and data residency compliance with frameworks like GDPR l Multi-tenant management for MSPs: Added multi-tenancy management, designed with MSPs and MSSPs in mind. Addressing challenges “We see firsthand the challenges organisations face in securing their increasingly dispersed workforce,” said SonicWall partner and CEO of Black Mountain, Rama Polefka. “CSE addresses these challenges head-on by providing a comprehensive set of solutions that are not only easy to deploy and manage but also deliver robust security capabilities. Whether it’s replacing tradition VPNs, delivering a cost-effective endpoint-based DNS offering or delivering a full ZTNA architecture, this solution allows us to offer our customers who are implementing a hybrid cloud migration a scalable and efficient way to protect their critical assets while ensuring seamless connectivity for their remote workforce.”
