Cisco Borderless Network
launched: | status: implemented
Solution Summary
Cisco's Borderless Network is a flexible management system to simplify the integration of newly developed devices and hardware [Weblink 1].
Key Benefits
Problem
Because of the fast technological development, a company's IT department should always be flexible and aware of newly developed tools, which can change communication patterns or other aspects of everyday life within a company. In today's times, thanks to the internet and wifi, there are many contributors and customers outside the usual company structure having access to the network everywhere they want with different devices, which lead to difficulties for the IT departments. [Weblink 1].
Aim
To efficiently manage the access of contributors and customers to a network independently of the device used [Weblink 1].
Approach
With Cisco's Borderless Network IT departments can provide applications for users with different devices to access all information and data they need. The network is flexible to integrate newly developed devices, it is accessible for employees, partners and customers, and provides the applications needed to connect users to the company's network and processes. The Borderless Network provides applications: user applications can be scaled and optimised. The energy consumption can be measured, monitored and controlled for a more efficient energy use resulting in improved sustainability. The security is provided by TrustSec to create transparency within the network, but still controls who is allowed to enter it [Weblink 1].
