Verizon has just announced its first Government Cloud-Managed SD WAN product (Software Defined Wide Area Network). The product is built on Verizon's Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program and is intended for US federal agencies. The new offering comes with the platform's first SaaS Managed SD WAN solution.

This innovative technology ensures that Federal agencies have a secure, scalable, and modernized network infrastructure, entirely tailored to meet the unique needs of these agencies for network and connectivity.

Federal cloud environments, understandably, have stringent security demands. This Verizon Business product was created in alignment with the government's ongoing transition to cloud-based technologies. It also integrates with Verizon's network.

Thanks to this new tech, operational efficiency is enhanced, mission-critical applications are supported, and agencies are empowered to achieve their modernization goals. This future-oriented product will ensure agencies have a seamless, scalable, and secure platform.

Mirabella also says that the new tech delivers tailored solutions for agencies to meet their strict demands more efficiently, and it also accelerates the deployment of advanced technology.

The solution is also AI-empowered. It simplifies the transition from older network systems to a modern, cloud-managed solution. The federal government has a continuing transition from legacy tools for communication to internet-based technologies, and Verizon's offering will help with that.

The Cisco SD WAN technology makes it possible for Verizon to offer improved accessibility, faster deployment of secure technical solutions and applications, and enhanced network performance to protect sensitive government data. Also, the services are integrated in bundles and managed by Verizon for unified support.
