In the hybrid working world, everyone needs a fast and secure way to connect to their company's data.

WAN or Wide Area Networks technologies have had an impressive impact; It's now easier than ever to do business. Using intelligence to optimize traffic across multiple links, we’ve gone from a trickle of information being sent between two direct points to terabytes of data sent at lighting speed across a network of points. 

In this episode of Explain I.T, we answer some important questions. How do we manage those connections? How do we keep performance consistent? And how do we keep our data secure?


To discuss this topic we’ve networked with our partners to bring you some expert guests Adam Batten, Networking and Connectivity Solutions Engineer at Softcat and Kanwar Loyal, VP of North Europe and MEA at Cato Networks.


If you want to listen to more episodes from this season, new ones are released on the last Tuesday of every month. Alternatively, you can stream or download all episodes from every season on your preferred platform.
