Acquisition of Banyan Security
SonicWall announced that it has acquired Banyan Security, a provider of Security Service Edge (SSE) solutions for the modern workforce. The transaction strengthens SonicWall's product portfolio by adding Zero Trust security, a technology trusted by everyone from leading Fortune 100 companies to small businesses that are replacing their legacy architectures with SSE solutions with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) included.
"For years, firewalls have been the backbone of cybersecurity defenses. However, with the rise of cloud computing and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) technology, the industry is opting for more comprehensive and flexible approaches that include SSE and ZTNA as a necessity. Together, SonicWall and Banyan Security will provide cloud-based Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions that will enable partners to deliver a security architecture for any phase of their customers' evolving journey to the cloud," added VanKirk.
This announcement comes on the heels of SonicWall's acquisition of Solutions Granted, Inc. (SGI), which helped equip the channel with the latest managed detection and response services tailored for managed service providers and managed security service providers.
