Managed Network Edge with security and routing

The path to securing your network can be challenging with so many DIY options and solution vendors. Thankfully, there’s an easier way to protect a network and ensure that security is up to date across locations. This also includes using the internet to access cloud applications.

Managed Network Edge is a modular, all-in-one solution that creates a complete network for all of your organization’s locations. Delivered over the Cisco Meraki platform, Managed Network Edge allows you to quickly protect your network all the way to the switch with consistent security capabilities across all of your locations. It also offers complete end-to-end visibility and control from a cloud-based portal. Our certified network experts, along with our national reach and multiple connectivity options, make Spectrum Enterprise uniquely qualified to be your single networking partner. We can tailor a complete solution to meet your needs.

Integrate stronger security across your network

Managed Network Edge strengthens your security posture with automated updates that make it easy to keep pace with changing networking requirements and emerging security risks. Firewall, unified threat management (UTM), URL content filtering and advanced malware and intrusion protection all play an important role. In addition, site-to-site VPN integration automatically establishes encrypted tunnels for traffic between branch locations and to the cloud, ensuring that network connections are always secure.

And gaining visibility into your network security has never been easier, with quick insights across your locations. It all starts with the cloud-based portal where you can see the end-to-end network activity of your wide area network (WAN) and local area networks (LANs). As part of the service, Spectrum Enterprise can quickly provision new locations giving you consistent security across your entire network.

Intelligent routing helps protect access to your network

Your organization’s most critical applications get priority across your WAN via intelligent routing over Managed Network Edge. That same intelligent routing plays a crucial role in protecting your network.

The routing capabilities of Managed Network Edge let you create virtual LANs (VLANs) to divide network traffic into segments based on type. This isolation of traffic into segments adds a layer of security and control by making it harder for bad actors to gain access to critical applications because a breach in one part of the network does not expose the rest of the network.

A managed switch strengthens security within your LAN

By adding switching capabilities from Managed Network Edge, you can easily segment traffic further while also ensuring LAN privacy and protection. Doing so helps prevent attacks from within your network and keeps internal users’ data private.
