Alewijnse Transforms Global RealTime WAN with Cato Secure SDWAN

Willem-Jan Herckenrath, ICT manager at Alewijnse wanted a simpler WAN design that made more effective use of the Internet without compromising on MPLS’ “quick performance” required by his loss-sensitive applications. The architecture would also have to address the company’s security requirements and mobility concerns. • Connecting locations through an Internet-based VPN was one approach, but that would still mean installing, configuring, and managing VPN routers at every location. SD-WAN showed promise, but traditional SD-WAN solutions do not connect mobile users or cloud resources. They also lack advanced security services and a global backbone. • Herckenrath and his team looked at bundling SD-WAN solutions with a secure web gateway (SWG) service and another provider’s backbone. But they rejected the idea. “The feature comparison looked good on paper, but they were more difficult to implement and much more expensive than Cato Cloud,” says Herckenrath. • 🧐 Read about SD-WAN: https://www.catonetworks.com/sd-wan/ • Cato Cloud is a secure, global SD-WAN service, connecting locations, cloud resources, and mobile users. Advanced security services are built into Cato Cloud and include a next generation firewall (NGFW), SWG, IPS, and advanced threat protection. “With Cato, we got the functionality of SD-WAN, a global backbone, and security service for our sites and mobile users, integrated together and at a fraction of the cost,” he says.
