CMND (Cloud Managed Network Defense) is a fully managed Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solution offered by BLOKWORX. It is designed to extend network security from the traditional perimeter to the cloud, eliminating the need for physical firewall appliances at individual locations. The service is positioned for managed service providers (MSPs) and organizations operating distributed or hybrid workforces. BLOKWORX handles the ongoing configuration, maintenance, and scaling of the SASE environment on behalf of its clients. Key functions displaced by CMND include traditional SASE firewalls, client VPN, MPLS, secure remote access VPN, and IPSec VPN. BLOKWORX provides a certified engineering team that designs and diagrams the network architecture, performs initial configuration, and manages ongoing updates. This addresses a common problem where misconfigured firewalls lead to security breaches. The team also supports scalability tasks such as reassigning users, adjusting content filtering exceptions, modifying interzone security policies, and adding or removing VLANs. The service is delivered as a fully managed offering, meaning clients do not need to maintain internal network engineering expertise. BLOKWORX takes responsibility for keeping the solution optimized for compliance, security, and operations on a continuous basis.
