Web traffic changes create new challenges

SaaS use is increasing rapidly, and users want to connect securely from anywhere. This includes key apps like office productivity, file storage, and CRM that demand fast response times. Performance issues are driving people toward direct internet access and the old appliance model just doesn’t scale for security.

Organizations are looking for a more efficient, multi-function, cloud-based security solution.

Moving to a better way

79%

of organizations are shifting to direct internet access for some or all of their branch/remote offices

76%

An innovative new approach to IPSec tunnels

A patent-pending process that leverages Anycast technology is used to simplify deployment and eliminate management tasks for IPSec tunnels.

  • Choose the data center to handle requests
  • No need to build backup IPSec tunnels
  • If a data center fails, the IPSec tunnel automatically moves with minimal downtime

Additionally, you can deploy using Cisco AnyConnect, PAC files, or proxy chaining.

Simple deployment and management illustration

Axcess Financial

“Many organizations are moving away from the standard proxy due to the overhead of running and maintaining on premise proxy servers with PAC files or proxy specific agents. This way of deploying a proxy is antiquated and resource intensive. The Umbrella SWG nicely bridges the gap by providing the feature set of a full proxy with the ease of use and management you come to expect from Cisco Umbrella.”
