NESIC chooses Cloudbrink SASE to power managed service
Global system integrator won over by simplicity, security and speed of the Cloudbrink service
SUNNYVALE, CA – NOVEMBER 19, 2024 – Cloudbrink has won a major endorsement from Japanese system integrator NEC Networks & System Integration Corporation (NESIC), which is to use Cloudbrink’s personal SASE service as the foundation of its Virtual Trusted Overlay Network.
Virtual Trusted Overlay Network facilitates high-performance zero-trust networking using Cloudbrink’s ultra-low-latency global edge mesh. NESIC is also integrating other services including end-point security and identity management, enabling accelerated connectivity and security to be brought together in a fully managed service.
NESIC chose Cloudbrink’s technology for its performance, integrated security and ease of deployment and management, and for its willingness to collaborate on the development of the NESIC service.
Osamu Kikuchi, Senior Vice President of NEC Networks & System Integration Corporation said: “Our partnership with Cloudbrink began over a year ago, and we have successfully introduced their award-winning service to businesses in the Japanese market. With this new game-changing service, we look forward to disrupting the traditional enterprise networking and security architecture to deliver enhanced security, simplicity and speed to our global customers and partners.”
Key to the Virtual Trusted Overlay Network is the ability to deliver ultra-high performance secure network access. Independent testing has verified Cloudbrink’s claim to accelerate applications by a factor of 30x for mobile and remote users on consumer-grade broadband and wireless connections, without the additional costs and operational headaches of installing additional hardware.
Routing and advanced security functions are provided by a global network of virtual PoPs called FAST edges, which use AI to locate the closest access point – typically less than 10ms away.
Prakash Mana, CEO of Cloudbrink, said: “We feel honored to play a significant role in the Virtual Trusted Overlay Network initiative. NEC has been an outstanding partner and we share the same vision of making SASE work for everyone – less to manage for the network and security teams, a better experience for end users, and better value for the enterprise.”
NESIC, a subsidiary of Japan’s leading provider of cloud computing and network services NEC Corporation, signed as a reseller of the Cloudbrink service in early 2023, later becoming a design partner to develop the Virtual Trusted Overlay Network.NESIC will offer services based on the Virtual Trusted Overlay Network starting in January 2025 as part of its Symphonict cloud service infrastructure.
