Rob Rodgers, Co-Founder and Chief Architect at Skyport Systems, discusses their ideas on remote branches, and how these differ from the traditional compute sense. Remote branches have considerable compute capabilities, and communicate via the network back to a home office. These are more akin to micro data centers and they approach securing them as such. This feeds into their overall message of simplifying management to better increase security.
