Overview of VeloCloud SD-WAN and Netskope SSE Integration

VeloCloud SD-WAN integrates with Netskope Next Gen Secure Web Gateway (SWG) to enable organizations with comprehensive cloud-enabled security in addition to optimized connectivity.

VeloCloud SD-WAN provides networking services by delivering high-performance, reliable access to cloud services, private data centers, and SaaS-based enterprise applications, while Netskope Security Service Edge (SSE) provides the complementary security services such as a Next Gen SWG, a Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) with both API-enabled and inline protections. Together they provide advanced data and threat protection for users, applications, and data. VeloCloud Edge can be deployed as a physical appliance or as a virtual machine at the customer site. The Edges communicate through secure IPsec to the Netskope Security Cloud.

When accessing public clouds such as AWS or Azure, or SaaS applications such as Office 365 and Workday, the VeloCloud Gateways send traffic to the Netskope Security Cloud to apply granular activity and security controls, with advanced data and threat protection. More specifically, this extends virtual access of the users to the New Edge global network infrastructure which serves as the network foundation for the Netskope Security Cloud and provides high-capacity, and low-latency access to cloud apps, infrastructure, and websites for a high performance user experience.

Together, Netskope and VeloCloud tightly integrate security and SD-WAN features delivering network optimization services like acceleration, QoS, and de-jitter, along with cloud-native, converged single-pass security controls like CASB, SWG, DLP, and ZTNA, to offer organizations with a highly-scalable, fast, and secure environment that protects users and data inside and outside the traditional corporate perimeter.
