SonicWall Elevates MSP Platform with Cloud Secure Edge Integration

We are very excited to announce the integration of Cloud Secure Edge's (formerly Banyan Security) robust Secure Access Service Edge solutions into our MySonicWall MSP platform. This strategic move enhances SonicWall's service offerings and also provides managed service providers (MSPs) easy-to-deploy advanced security tools to meet the evolving demands of modern businesses.

Strengthening Security with Zero Trust

The integration of Cloud Secure Edge brings Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) principles to customers in MySonicWall, enabling MSPs to enforce strict access controls based on user identity, device posture and contextual data. This approach reduces the attack surface and mitigates the risk of unauthorized access, ensuring that only verified users and devices can access resources using the principle of least privilege.
