(Original post from Adaptiv Networks)
In the ever-evolving digital landscape, the convergence of networking and security is not just a trend but a necessity. As businesses increasingly rely on digital operations, the need for robust cybersecurity has never been more critical. This is especially true for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), which are often targeted by cybercriminals due to their perceived vulnerabilities. According to recent statistics, 61% of SMBs were the target of a cyberattack in 2021. At the same time, 51% of small businesses had no cybersecurity measures in place at all. In 2020, 60% of these businesses would go out of business within six months of a cyberattack.
In the face of these mounting threats, it becomes apparent that SMBs, just like their larger counterparts, are in great need of a cybersecurity solution that is simple to acquire, deploy, and manage.
Recognizing these challenges, Adaptiv Networks has partnered with Coro to revolutionize the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) arena. This strategic partnership aims to provide comprehensive security solutions that address the evolving needs of businesses, ensuring both network and data security.

Adaptiv Networks has long been a pioneer in the field of networking, offering innovative solutions that enhance connectivity and performance. With the integration of Coro’s advanced data security solutions, Adaptiv Networks is poised to set a new standard in the SASE market. This partnership brings together the strengths of both companies, creating a robust security framework that protects businesses from a wide range of cyber threats, while bringing the cost effectiveness and simplicity required for the businesses with branches with a lean IT environment.
Adaptiv Networks’ Cloud SD-WAN architecture is designed with security at its core, thanks to a zero-trust under-pinning. By adopting Adaptiv’s SD-WAN, businesses can benefit from several inherent security features.
These security features are not just add-ons but integral components of Adaptiv’s SD-WAN zero-trust architecture. This “security by design” approach ensures that businesses can enjoy the benefits of advanced networking technology without compromising on security. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, having a secure network infrastructure is crucial for maintaining business continuity and protecting valuable data.
Adaptiv Networks’ existing security offerings under the SASE framework include a range of advanced security measures.
By integrating these security measures into the SASE framework, Adaptiv Networks offers a comprehensive security solution that addresses the diverse needs of modern businesses.
The partnership with Coro brings a new portfolio of data security solutions to Adaptiv’s partners and end-customers.
By integrating Coro’s data security solutions into its portfolio, Adaptiv Networks offers a comprehensive security framework that addresses both network and data security needs.

While traditional cyber defense includes multiple costly systems, heavy integration, countless technical resources, and disjointed interfaces, Coro’s approach offers an all-in-one, fully automated security arsenal that can be implemented in minutes, with a simple interface designed with the user experience as a guiding principle.
With the integration of Coro’s data security solutions, Adaptiv Networks’ security portfolio will now encompass two main categories: Network Security and Data Security. Network Security incorporates Adaptiv’s current security offerings, ensuring that traffic is secure as it transits through the network. Data Security includes Coro’s portfolio, ensuring that data remains secure as it arrives at its destination, in a cloud storage, an email inbox or a physical device. This holistic approach to security ensures that businesses are protected at every stage of their digital operations.

Adaptiv Networks’ security offerings will continue to expand, integrating more tightly with Coro’s solutions.
Here’s what you can expect:
Managed Service Providers (MSPs) will find several benefits from this enhanced security portfolio. Comprehensive solutions allow MSPs to offer a complete security solution that covers both network and data security, making their services more attractive to potential clients. The modular nature of the security offerings allows MSPs to upsell additional security modules to their clients, increasing revenue streams and enabling them to provide their customers with a tailored solution. With a unified security platform, MSPs can manage all security aspects from a single interface, reducing complexity and improving efficiency.
End customers will also reap significant benefits from the enhanced security offerings. Enhanced security ensures that businesses can operate with greater confidence, knowing that their digital assets are protected. The flexibility of the modular approach allows businesses to adopt the security measures that best fit their needs without overhauling their existing infrastructure. As businesses grow, they can easily scale their security solutions to match their expanding needs.
In conclusion, the strategic partnership between Adaptiv Networks and Coro marks a significant advancement in the SASE landscape, delivering robust, flexible, and comprehensive security solutions tailored to meet the needs of modern businesses. By integrating Coro’s cutting-edge data security offerings with Adaptiv’s industry-leading SD-WAN capabilities, we are empowering Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to enhance their service portfolios and enabling small to mid-sized enterprises to safeguard their digital operations with confidence.
