Gartner views SD-WAN and SASE as key technologies to help enterprises transform their networks from fragile to agile, predicting nearly 52% of IT spend from 2020 focused on security services. QOS Networks has added solutions to their Intelligent Network Platform that cater to customers focused on enhancing their network security posture. The QOS Managed SASE offering, the Secure Network Edge, focuses on leveraging network segmentation, routing, next-gen firewall capabilities, and identity access and management to deliver higher quality security offerings, all managed and monitored through the Intelligent Network Platform. The latest integration of new SD-WAN supported platforms and the Secure Edge is focused on protecting data by detecting threats in the network, monitoring across cloud environments, and focusing on user experience across the board, turning the network into a risk-aware ecosystem.

This has put new strain on the IT team and the organization’s leaders to do more with fewer resources,” says Chief Revenue Officer for QOS Networks, Chris Nein. “This is where QOS Networks steps in, we’re solving for the continued pressure that an evolving network comes with.”
