Securing Your Network: The Industry’s First SD-WAN with Integrated IoT Defense

The Internet of Things (IoT) has become indispensable to modern enterprise networks. From smart lighting and security cameras to card readers and printers, these devices drive daily operations in branches and retail spaces. Yet with Gartner predicting over 18 billion enterprise-connected devices by 2030 (4x more than user devices), IoT’s rapid expansion introduces unprecedented risks.

According to NCD Team’s IoT Threat Report:

57% of devices have built-in vulnerabilities
98% transmit data unencrypted
83% run unsupported operating systems

Traditional security approaches—like deploying standalone IoT sensors—add complexity, backhaul traffic, and inflate costs. Businesses need a unified strategy that combines networking and security without compromising visibility or control.

Enter SASE: The Future of IoT Security

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) converges SD-WAN, Zero Trust, FWaaS, and CASB into a single cloud-delivered architecture. As hybrid work and cloud adoption accelerate, SASE has emerged as the gold standard for securing users and applications. Now, it must extend these capabilities to things.

The Breakthrough: SD-WAN with Integrated IoT Defense

The industry’s first SD-WAN solution engineered for IoT:
1. Automatic Device Discovery: Accurately identifies IoT devices by category, vendor, model, and OS.
2. Behavioral Visibility: Monitors traffic patterns to detect anomalies in real time.
3. Proactive Enforcement: Applies tailored policies based on device vulnerabilities and classifications.
4. Zero Backhaul: Eliminates point products and simplifies branch operations.
By embedding IoT security into the SD-WAN fabric—a core pillar of SASE—businesses gain end-to-end protection without added hardware. This integrated approach slashes costs, reduces attack surfaces, and future-proofs networks against evolving threats.

Businesses Require SASE to Secure IoT and Simplify Operations


Secure access service edge (SASE) converges wide area networking or WAN, and network security services like CASB, FWaaS and Zero Trust, into a single, cloud-delivered service model. The hybrid workforce, cloud adoption and the need for zero trust have defined SASE as the de facto solution to deliver digital transformation, protect applications and users and improve user experience. With the explosion in IoT presence, these capabilities should also extend to things.

Protecting IoT devices should start with the SASE solution’s capability to discover IoT devices continuously. This means software-defined wide area networks (SD-WAN) that are integral to SASE in transforming networks should provide accurate IoT identification at the branches. By tightly integrating security services with SD-WAN, SASE should enhance visibility into IoT traffic patterns and enable effective security enforcement that takes into account device classification and vulnerabilities. This comprehensive approach should provide businesses with the tools to proactively protect their networks from potential threats in the rapidly evolving IoT landscape.

Goip Group SASE with Next-Generation SD-WAN Secures All IoT Devices

Goip introduces new capabilities for its SD-WAN solution offering deep IoT device visibility. Customers can now leverage their existing SD-WAN appliances to help secure all IoT devices with Access. This eliminates the need to implement additional sensors at the branches and backhaul traffic.

Access, with a global presence and IoT security subscription, delivers detailed IoT inventory with high confidence while detecting abnormal behaviors of these devices. IT administrators can now identify all IoT devices, view security policy recommendations and enforce these policies from a single console offered by Goip SASE unified cloud management console.

With ZTNA 2.0, businesses can confidently identify and secure all IoT devices, regardless of their vendor or operating system, by safeguarding them against advanced threats and unknown vulnerabilities. This industry’s only complete solution extends zero-trust to protect all endpoints and mitigate the risk of cyber attacks on the organization.
