  1. How DPI is transforming next-gen secure web gateways

    A secure web gateway (SWG) acts as a checkpoint that enforces an enterprise’s Internet access policies. It blocks unauthorized web access, regulates Internet usage and optimizes bandwidth by restricting unimportant sites. This article discusses how application awareness by DPI boosts its core functionalities comprising access and policy control, security and analytics across cloud, SaaS and enterprise applications. It also looks at the rich security and WAN management services that SWG vendors can enable across their suite of solutions, leveraging DPI’s granular and accurate traffic insights.

  2. Security Service Edge (SSE) and DPI: Converged security meets advanced traffic awareness

    Security Service Edge (SSE) provides a flexible yet scalable solution for implementing fine-grained access control for enterprise applications and for securing them against malicious activity. In a unified, single-pass SSE architecture, deep packet inspection enables a single, yet powerful point for traffic inspection that equips CASB, SWG, FWaaS, DNS, DLP and WAAPaaS with the information necessary to filter traffic effectively, block malicious sites and safeguard valuable enterprise data. Learn more about SSE and how it benefits from DPI in this article.

  4. SASE: Conquering the ever expanding enterprise edge

    Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a network architecture that allows enterprises to securely connect remote users and devices to the enterprise-wide area network(WAN). SASE essentially combines ‘network-as-a-service’ with ‘security-as-a-service’ to provide enterprises, especially those with a growing number of edge connections covering branches, mobile workers, remote workers and IoT devices, the means to monitor, manage and secure their enterprise networks and assets. If SASE will be the crucial architecture for securing and managing the ever-expanding enterprise perimeter, deep packet inspection is the logical complement, providing real-time intelligence at every point along the way.
