Migration from Silo Security to Secure Holistic Cloud Networking

August 21, 2018

Enterprises are rapidly transforming their critical network infrastructures to encompass private, public and hybrid cloud architectures. This complex mesh of diverse network topologies coupled with dense virtualization and artificial intelligence applications has posed exponential security challenges. Concurrently, an upsurge in unrelenting cyber attacks and advanced ransomware has made security paramount for enterprises. To address the risk, scale and mitigation of persistent security issues, Arista has upped its ante to provide enterprises consistent, holistic network-wide security measures across cloud networks and firewall infrastructures, replacing antiquated box-by-box approach. The confluence of Arista’s Zone Segmentation Security and Cognitive WiFi along with its Macro-Segmentation Services (MSSTM), VMware’s micro segmentation offering, and advanced firewalls from partners deliver on the promise of simple and secure cloud networking.

Advancing the 5G Era Benefits and Opportunity of 5G-Advanced

whitePaper | September 19, 2022

This document focuses primarily on 3GPP Rel-18 - the inaugural release of 5G-Advanced. Initial work on Rel-18 in 3GPP started in 2022 (just before the finalisation of Rel-17), targeting commercialisation from 2024 onwards.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and its Adoption

whitePaper | June 14, 2022

The complexity and cost of ensuring network security and remote access for employees and key business partners can overwhelm smaller businesses. Higher cloud adoption, a distributed workforce, mobile employees, the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks make traditional methods of ensuring secure communications across your organization overly complex and expensive. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) reduces the surface area for attack by following zero trust tenets to provide access to applications. ZTNA from OpenVPN Cloud creates a private, secure overlay network for businesses, which connects all of their applications, private networks, workforce, and IoT devices together without needing to own and manage a multitude of complex and hard-to-scale security and data networking gear.
