Securing Branch Networks With Firewalls, VPNs, IDS/IPS, and Identity-Based Access

Branch networks no longer behave like quiet extensions of a single headquarters LAN. They terminate local user traffic, break out directly to the internet for SaaS, maintain persistent connections back to core systems, and increasingly host devices that are operationally important even when central resources are unavailable.
