Key benefits of Cloud WAN with NCC Gateway
The addition of NCC Gateway to Cloud WAN brings a number of advantages:
-
Unified security posture: Enhance your security posture by consolidating your security stack and minimizing the attack surface. NCC Gateway enforces consistent ingress and egress security through Cloud WAN, providing a uniform security experience for all users, regardless of location or device, with your preferred SSE provider.
-
Improved application experience: Deliver a superior user experience with lower latency for both SaaS and private applications, powered by our premium backbone and native encryption. Cloud WAN provides up to 40% improved performance compared to the public internet.1
-
Lower costs: Achieve significant cost savings by streamlining multi-cloud connectivity and adopting a consumption-based model. Cloud WAN provides up to a 40% savings in total cost of ownership (TCO) over a customer-managed WAN solution.2
What our partners are saying
This is what our SSE partners had to say about NCC Gateway integration.
Palo Alto Networks:
“The integration of Prisma SASE with Cloud WAN unlocks new possibilities for customers, offering a high-bandwidth on-ramp to Prisma Access from large branches and campuses, while providing a high-performance private off-ramp to optimize secure access to private applications in Google Cloud or any other clouds.” – Anupam Upadhyaya, Vice President, Product Management, Palo Alto Networks
Broadcom:
“In an age where enterprises demand cutting-edge security at line speed, we’re proud to partner with Google Cloud to deliver a game-changing solution: Symantec Security Service Edge (SSE) natively integrated into Cloud WAN via Symantec Cloud SWG Express Connect. This gives our joint customers a secure express lane to critical data and seamless access to world-class AI capabilities. It’s another major step in our mission to bring enterprise-grade security to all.” – Jason Rolleston, General Manager, Enterprise Security Group, Broadcom

1. During testing, network latency was more than 40% lower when traffic to a target traveled over the Cross-Cloud Network compared to when traffic to the same target traveled across the public internet.
2. Architecture includes SD-WAN and 3rd party firewalls, and compares a customer-managed WAN using multi-site colocation facilities to a WAN managed and hosted by Google Cloud.
