Broadway is looking Principal Software Engineer in Ontario, Canada.

Overview
 

Organizations are embracing digital transformation with initiatives like mobility and the cloud for  greater productivity, efficiency, and competitiveness. Delivering this digital transformation poses challenges for security, visibility and control. Our industry is rapidly coalescing around Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), a cloud-based security architecture. SASE combines networking and security-as-a-service capabilities into a single offering that greatly simplifies this transformation for our customers. 

One of the fundamental concepts of SASE is the convergence of network services such as software-defined wide area networks (SD-WAN) with network security technologies such as secure web gateway (SWG), cloud access security broker (CASB), data loss prevention (DLP), browser isolation, zero trust network access (ZTNA), and SSL inspection.

Symantec Web Security Service (WSS) is the foundation of the Symantec SASE solution. It integrates multiple advanced security technologies and makes them available from the cloud. WSS runs on a high-performance, fully redundant cloud-native infrastructure. This network, among the largest and best connected in the world, is edge-optimized for remote employees working from home and on mobile devices.
