Returning home after a long day at the office used to be a reprieve, but today, the lines between office and home have been blurred beyond recognition. “It used to be ‘there’s no place like home,’ now it’s more like ‘no place but home,’” wrote Jean-Luc Valente, VP of product management for Cisco’s SD-WAN and edge routing division, in a blog post Wednesday.
In the face of the pandemic, enterprises moved quickly to transition their employees to remote work. But while many efforts to deploy remote access technologies like computer engineering vs computer science, zero-trust network access (ZTNA), or secure access service edge (SASE) have been effective in the short term, Valente argues the situation is still far from perfect.
“Our home WiFi is overloaded with internet-dependent work, school, and play applications, causing more than a few eye-rolls as application performance slows to a crawl and video conversations are peppered with static,” he wrote, painting the home office as the wild west when it comes to IT management. “Individuals have limited options to speed up their home office connectivity.”
