Risk-Based Authentication (RBA) is a security measure that evaluates the potential risk of a login attempt or other access-related activity in real-time.
Roaming refers to the ability of a mobile phone or other wireless device to connect to a network outside of its home network, usually when the user is in a different geographic location or country.
Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) is a modern approach to managing and optimizing a wide area network (WAN), which connects different parts of an organization including branches, data centers, and other facilities over large geographical distances.
A Secure Access Gateway is a crucial tool used to control and manage access to a network or online resources, ensuring that only authorized users can get in.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a network architecture that combines wide area networking (WAN) capabilities with comprehensive security functions.
Secure communication is a method of transmitting data and information between two or more entities while preventing unauthorized access, eavesdropping, or interception.
Secure Remote Access refers to a suite of technologies and policies designed to enable authorized users to safely connect to an organization's network, applications, and resources from remote locations.
A Security Association (SA) is a vital concept in network security that involves establishing a set of security attributes between two network entities to ensure secure communication.
A "Silent Device" refers to a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet, configured to use Silent Phone, a secure communication application developed by Silent Circle.
A Site-to-Site VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a secure communication service that connects multiple fixed locations, such as offices or branches of a company, over a public network like the internet.
A Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) is a cybersecurity approach designed to protect network resources by creating an invisible boundary around them, making them inaccessible to unauthorized users.
Split tunneling is a networking feature that allows a user to route some of their device or network traffic through a secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) tunnel while allowing other data to access the internet directly, bypassing the VPN.
Threat intelligence is the process of gathering, analyzing, and understanding information about potential or existing threats to an organization’s cybersecurity.
Trust Zones are sections of a computer network that have been separated based on the level of trust assigned to the devices, data, and applications within them.
Unified Threat Management (UTM) refers to a comprehensive security solution that consolidates multiple security functions into a single device or service, making it easier to manage and deploy.
VPN tunneling is a powerful technology that allows users to securely access a private network over the internet, thereby extending a private network across a public network.
VNF is a revolutionary technology designed to transform traditional, hardware-based network functions into software applications that run on virtual machines or in containers.
A virtual router is a software-based routing framework that facilitates the functionality similar to that of a physical router, but without the need for dedicated hardware.
WAN Optimization is a collection of techniques and technologies applied to Wide Area Networks (WANs) aimed at enhancing data transfer efficiency across the network.
A wireless local-area network (WLAN) is a network that enables devices to connect and communicate using radio waves instead of traditional wired connections.
