Home is the New Branch

A business continuity solution for secure & seamless remote working

We are living in uncertain times amidst a global pandemic. Organizations are taking all measures to ensure safety of their employees and customers, while maintaining business continuity. As part of this effort, organizations are adopting new ways of working. With the majority of the workforce locked down in their homes, the need of the hour for enterprises is to enable these employees to deliver their responsibilities remotely, in other words, make the employee’s home a ‘new branch office’.

Wipro’s #WANFreedom, a secured SD-WAN solution, ensures that users get seamless access to authorized applications irrespective of their location - office or home. The secure internet access ensures that users have the right level of protection and apply the same policy while they are on the campus, branch or working from home.

‘Home is the New Branch’ solution, delivered with #WANFreedom, enables secure remote access to the work-from-home users, who are originally connected to their enterprise network. This gives the remote users seamless and secure access to the applications sitting at cloud and private cloud data centers.

While the user is at the branch, security is ensured by the branch edge SD-WAN part of the #WANfreedom secure network. The user is allowed in the corporate local area network with an active directory-based authentication. Once the user is authenticated, the access to all applications is controlled via WAN segmentation and application policy as part of SD-WAN solution.

Wipro’s Home is the New Branch solution ensures the same level of access and security even at home. The secure tunnel which gets established from the user machine to the secure cloud over the internet creates a micro-tunnel to enable access to the authorized app for a given user. This ensures corporate apps have protected usage, which is achieved using secure authentication of the user to the secure internet cloud.
