To be successful as a business, MSSPs must strike a delicate balance between providing scalable and cost-effective security services, overcoming cost and operational challenges, and differentiation with an innovative security portfolio without impacting the quality-of-service experience (QoE.)

This webinar will document and provide open discussion on how MSSPs are navigating this evolving landscape. Topics to be discussed include:

  •  The security impacts of the evolving threat landscape

  • The challenges of protecting networks and applications in a multi-cloud, multi-tenant environment

  • Key use cases for protecting networks and applications for carriers and service providers

  • How to enable network and application security services quickly and cost-effectively
