Providing the highest security standard, level of trust, and credibility are essential for today´s global businesses. Accordingly, WAN security has become a key requirement in tender processes for network rollouts, and is critical for protecting customers and their data. In any case, sensitive data has to satisfy strict requirements such as the GDPR in Europe or any other private or governmental security regulations.
