With the rise of cloud computing, Wi-Fi hotspots and the mobile workforce, the way we work has fundamentally changed. The complex, hardware-based and distributed legacy VPN technology of the past, is no longer relevant for today. Luckily, the emergence of cloud-based VPN and software-defined perimeter technology offers businesses the ability to protect critical company resources—based on-premise and in the cloud—in a simple and seamless way.

- 2. Meet Matt ➔ IT Manager at a US technology company with 370 employees. ➔ His organization has sales and engineering business units, each requiring different network access. ➔ While their engineering team requires AWS and on-premise app access, their sales team needs reliable, secure domain services and cloud based CRM access.
- 3. The Challenge: Securing Cloud Resources Access Before choosing Perimeter 81, our client faced limited options: Leave their applications open to the Internet Implement basic firewalling Create an in-office VPN concentrator Build their own VPN gateways Pursue a traditional corporate VPN service
- 4. His Business Pains Complicated VPN setups and outages Tedious hardware updates and maintenance Company-specific configurations and passwords Integrating physical servers and site-specific applications with cloud based infrastructure and applications.
- 5. The Way We Work Has Changed
- 6. (IDC, June 2015) We are mobile “By 2020, mobile workers will make up nearly 75% of the US workforce.”
- 7. The Rapid Growth of Cloud Computing, 2015-2020 (IDC, September 2016) We use the cloud Worldwide Spending on Public Cloud Computing ($B)
- 8. We connect to public Wi-Fi “By 2020, the number of public Wi-Fi hotspots is projected to reach 432 million -- 7X the 2015 figure of 64 million.” (Cisco, February 2016)
- 9. Every Company Needs VPN Technology For small businesses with 10 employees To major enterprises with over 500,000 It’s the bread and butter for accessing resources.
- 10. But the Traditional VPN Has Not Kept Up... Hardware-based Very expensive Difficult to install and manage Slow connection speeds Hard to scale Not cloud-friendly The Legacy User Experience. Not-so-friendly client applications The Legacy Architecture. Lacks centralized cloud management
- 11. For So Many It Is Not Accessible Nor… Relevant
- 12. Enter the Software-Defined Perimeter “By 2021, 60% of enterprises will have replaced VPNs with SDP solutions” (Gartner, September 2016)
- 13. The Software-Defined Difference ➔ Software Defined ➔ Cost-effective ➔ Easy to set up and manage ➔ Immediate updates & upgrades ➔ Highly scalable ➔ Seamless cloud integration
- 14. We’re doing what Dropbox did for files with network access Dropbox: Moving from a physical network file system to cloud-managed file sharing service. Perimeter 81: Moving from physical VPN gateways to a cloud-managed network access service.

- “Only 14 percent of SMBs rate their ability to mitigate cyber attacks as highly effective. The top reasons for this include insufficient personnel (67 percent), insufficient budget (54 percent) and insufficient enabling technologies.” Ponemon Institute, July 2016
- Mשrkets And Markets a CAGR of 34% over the next 5 years Connectivity complexity has made the old security compromises unsustainable, driving the need for a newer approach that meets the digital business needs for complexity, traffic volume and flexibility while avoiding the inherent vulnerabilities of the old models.” “IT and security leaders understand that responsibility for cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) Security is shared between enterprises and cloud providers, and that IaaS has different user access and security requirements than traditional on-premises systems. However, these requirements cannot be fully satisfied with traditional security tools and the security constructs provided by the IaaS vendor.” The SDP Working Group, 2017
