Overview
Aryaka
Aryaka offers a unified SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) platform designed to simplify how you connect and protect your global workforce. By combining a private core network with advanced security features, the platform eliminates the unpredictability of the public internet. You can ensure your business-critical applications perform consistently for every user, whether they are working in a branch office or from a remote location.
The solution solves the complexity of managing multiple point products by integrating SD-WAN, firewall-as-a-service, and secure web gateways into a single managed service. You can scale your network infrastructure rapidly without the typical headaches of hardware procurement or manual configuration. It is particularly effective for mid-to-large enterprises with international operations that require high-performance connectivity and robust protection against evolving digital threats.
Harmony SASE
Harmony SASE helps you secure your remote workforce by replacing traditional VPNs with a faster, more secure Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) model. You can connect your employees to internal resources and cloud applications through a global private backbone that reduces latency while enforcing strict security policies. It ensures that only authorized users on compliant devices can access your sensitive data, regardless of where they are working from.
You can manage your entire network security posture from a single cloud-based console, simplifying the way you handle firewall rules and access permissions. The platform integrates a cloud-native firewall and secure web gateway to protect your team from internet-based threats and data leaks. It is designed for mid-market and enterprise organizations that need to scale their remote access capabilities without compromising on speed or security.
