To enhance your banking network security, implement SD-WAN, a software-defined wide area network, solutions that route network traffic through secure delivery channels. Branch connectivity and financial data sharing are crucial in the banking industry because you constantly have to send financial and consumer data from one branch to another—but the data’s route needs to be protected when it travels across branches.
That’s where SD-WAN comes in. SD-WAN, extends your network over large geographical locations to improve your banking branch connectivity. This type of network:
The benefits of SD-WAN in banking include:
With SD-WAN, each piece of data sent across branches is encrypted and travels through a secure tunnel. This feature creates a strong barrier against cybersecurity threats and keeps out unauthorized users.
The financial industry stores arguably the most sensitive data, from credit card numbers and addresses to bank account balances and transaction records, so it’s vital for customer protection to use encrypted tunnels. Secure SD-WAN also includes integrated cloud-based security solutions, tightening your overall cloud security.
SD-WAN for banking includes features that improve your overall efficiency, such as:
With a larger bandwidth and improved network performance, you can send data across branches in record time. Manual servers and hardware aren’t reliable, as they’re prone to breakdowns and often malfunction during power outages. With SD-WAN’s cloud connectivity functionality, you no longer have to depend on physical hardware.
SD-WAN for banking reduces operating costs by eliminating the need for expensive MPLS lines and replacing it with broadband internet, like fiber, cable, DSL, and mobile technologies.
Plus, you can easily add new lines to networks that require a larger capacity without extra costs.
Most MSPs provide SD-WAN as a service and charge a monthly fee instead of making you pay per line/tunnel. You also cut out the need for servers since they’re replaced by SD-WANs cloud connectivity.
