The new capabilities include multi-fabric orchestration, one-click automation with cloud providers, advanced segmentation, and larger EdgeConnect appliances.

Cato envisions several applications for Instant*Insight including threat detection and diagnosis, and resolution of network disruptions.

The new container security technology allows customers to apply consistent security policies across all cloud IaaS workloads, McAfee says.

“Keeping with the Broadcom cadence, approximately every two years we’ve been doubling the bandwidth of the Tomahawk product line," Broadcom's Peter Del Vecchio said.

“Through slush funds, bribes, gifts, and graft, Ericsson conducted telecom business with the guiding principle that ‘money talks,’” said U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman.

The 5G-Drive consortium has its sights set on the development of 5G autonomous drone scouts and industrial IoT.

Gartner's latest WAN Edge Magic Quadrant report has VMware and Silver Peak leading that market in 2019, while Cisco and Riverbed have slipped

The decades-old framework of virtualization is unfit for modern cloud infrastructure and, as such, Amazon is working to achieve near bare metal performance.

Aviatrix CEO Steve Mullaney says using SD-WAN to connect branch offices to the cloud misses the boat. “SD-WAN is dead. I mean, it’s over.”

Juniper CTO Bikash Koley calls it quits; Nokia Kills COO role amid struggles; plus the latest executive hirings, promotions, and staff changes.

The legal spat comes as Deutsche Telekom has halted all of its 5G plans pending a firm decision on the use of Huawei equipment from the German government.

The legacy network and endpoint security vendor acquired key pieces of cloud-native technology used in its Cloud Optix security platform when it bought Avid Secure.

“We think of the whole AWS Outposts initiative as very complementary to everything we’re doing,” said CenturyLink’s Dave Shacochis.

The company is testing the ability of its SD-WAN to deliver stable and predictable connections for unified communications and IoT device traffic across a 5G connection.

McAfee also teased a yet-to-be-released microsegmentation technology to secure contianer runtimes called NanoSegmentation.

“We’ve been engaged in quiet or stealth mode with AWS the past 18 months,” Verizon's Bill Stone said.

The integration will permit Fortinet-managed rulesets for AWS Web Application Firewall (AWS WAF).

It’s a fully managed and configurable compute and storage racks built with AWS-designed hardware that can run compute and storage on premises.

It uses AWS’ new edge computing service called Wavelength to allow developers to deploy ultra-low latency applications to mobile devices using 5G networks.

Cisco's new integrations are aimed at helping campus, branch, and data center customers secure, automate, and manage their AWS connections.

Users can provision Juniper’s EX Series switches similar to how they control their SD-WAN environment.

The OpenStack-based platform allows IoT applications to run as VMs or in Docker containers as microservices that operate independent of the underlying infrastructure.
