Explain IT: Season 7, Episode 9: Internet – what is WAN without SASE?

In the hybrid working world, everyone needs a fast and secure way to connect to their company's data.

Wide Area Networks (WAN) technologies have had an impressive impact, it's now easier than ever to do business. Using intelligence to optimise traffic across multiple links, we’ve gone from a trickle of information being sent between two direct points to terabytes of data sent at lighting speed across a network of points. 

In this episode of Explain IT we're joined by some expert guests to answer these three important questions:

• How do we manage those connections? 
• How do we keep performance consistent? 
• How do we keep our data secure?

Joining us are, Adam Batten, Networking and Connectivity Solutions Engineer at Softcat and Kanwar Loyal, VP of North Europe and MEA at Cato Networks.
