Born from years of delivering innovative Security Service Edge
(SSE) solutions for mid-enterprise customers, CSE is a unified,
cloud-delivered multi-tenant platform for MSPs of all sizes.
Customers will be able to choose from a range of Secure Internet
Access (SIA) and Secure Private Access (SPA) solutions that replace
legacy VPNs with cloud-native solutions that deliver network
security at all price points. For organizations that want to
combine zero trust with firewall protection, SonicWall is embedding
a Private Connector in SonicWall Next-Gen Firewalls (NGFW) to
strengthen existing multi-layer security with a zero trust
architecture, providing unprecedented ease of deployment while
leveraging existing infrastructure.
"In today's dynamic threat landscape, where remote work and
cloud adoption are accelerating, organizations need a flexible
security solution that can seamlessly protect users and data across
any network environment," said SonicWall Executive Vice President
of Product Strategy Tarun Desikan.
"Banyan was an early innovator and market leader in delivering SSE
to enterprises of all sizes. CSE takes that experience and adds
SonicWall's network security knowledge to launch highly flexible
and cost-effective solutions - ensuring that any organization can
maintain high-performance connectivity while safeguarding against
evolving cyber threats. These innovative offerings, designed in
consultation with SonicWall MSPs, not only simplify deployment and
management but also enhance overall security posture, making them
essential and accessible tools for evolving IT environments."
While established vendors offer complex SSE solutions geared
toward large enterprises, CSE fills the gap experienced by SMEs by
providing a straightforward, scalable ZTNA solution ideal for MSPs
and their mid-market and SMB customers. CSE adds to our
existing remote access solutions enabling SonicWall 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. "Cloud Secure
Edge 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 organizations 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."
From VPN as a Service (VPNaaS) 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 organizations 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 emphasize ease of deployment and management and flexibility to
address any cloud migration use case.
"We see firsthand the challenges organizations face in securing
their increasingly dispersed workforce," said SonicWall partner and
CEO of Black Mountain Rama Polefka. "Cloud Secure Edge
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."
Additional key benefits for MSPs include:
- Firewall Connector: SonicWall customers can leverage CSE
Connector integration within their Next-Generation firewalls (Gen7)
starting with SonicOS 7.1.2, enabling ZTNA to their private apps
hosted behind the firewall.
- Seamless Integration: The addition of Cloud Secure Edge
is designed to integrate seamlessly with MySonicWall. This ensures
a smooth transition for MSPs, allowing them to leverage new
capabilities without disrupting their current operations.
- Simplified Remote Access: CSE Connector integration in
SonicOS 7.1.2 allows employees to securely access authorized
applications from anywhere, on any single device, without having to
deal with repetitive and complex VPN and Access Policy
configurations.
- 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.
- Regional Compliance: The integration features a new CSE
data center hosted in Frankfurt,
Germany to ease adoption and data residency compliance with
frameworks like GDPR.
- Multi-tenant Management for MSPs: Added multi-tenancy
management, designed with MSPs and MSSPs in mind
