Verizon Business deploys Zero Trust network capabilities for Siemens

Verizon Business is supporting Siemens’ with a range of network connectivity solutions that will provide Siemens’ employees at smaller office sites with a seamless ‘plug and play’ user experience while putting security and Zero Trust principles first.

Siemens’ Zero Trust Program ensures that all devices Siemens’ must be authenticated, authorised and continuously validated before access is given or retained to the company’s mission-critical applications and data. Verizon Business will deploy ‘Internet only’ connectivity such as a global Managed Wide Area Network, based on Cisco Meraki’s technology and critical to the success of Siemens’ ‘never trust, always verify’ programme.

“Every company needs a secure work infrastructure but balancing security risks while striving to deliver a user-friendly, digital working experience continues to remain the challenge of IT departments,” said Sanjiv Gossain, EMEA Vice President, Verizon Business. “That’s where an intelligent network can make underlying architectures more nimble by managing traffic and making operations more efficient.” 

Elmar Spreitzer, Head of IT Digital Foundation, Siemens, added: “With Verizon, we found a new partner to provide secure, Internet-based network access for our office sites. The innovative connectivity solution is designed to meet the requirements of our Zero Trust Program where we never trust, but always verify.”
