Graphene Networks provides cloud-native SASE and SD-WAN solutions for global enterprises, integrating high-performance networking with zero-trust security.
Graphene Networks is a specialized provider of next-generation networking and cybersecurity solutions, designed to meet the demands of the modern, distributed enterprise. Founded to address the complexities of traditional wide-area networking, the company has established a significant market presence by delivering high-performance SD-WAN, SASE, and Managed Security Services. Graphene serves a diverse range of industries, including finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and retail, focusing on mid-market and enterprise-level organizations that require secure, scalable connectivity across multiple global sites.
The company’s core business focus is the modernization of legacy network architectures. By transitioning organizations away from rigid, expensive MPLS circuits toward agile, software-defined infrastructures, Graphene enables its clients to leverage the full potential of cloud computing and remote work. Their service suite encompasses everything from initial architectural design and deployment to ongoing 24/7 managed services through their global Network Operations Centers (NOC). Over its history, Graphene has evolved from a regional connectivity provider into a strategic technology partner that integrates top-tier hardware from industry leaders with their own proprietary management and optimization layers. This hybrid approach allows them to offer bespoke solutions that are more flexible than those from massive telecommunications carriers, yet more robust than standard off-the-shelf software products.
Company Differentiation
Graphene Networks distinguishes itself through a "security-first, network-second" philosophy that challenges the traditional siloed approach to IT infrastructure. The company’s culture is rooted in the belief that high-performance networking should not come at the expense of complex security overhead. Unlike traditional managed service providers (MSPs) that simply resell hardware, Graphene operates with a business model focused on co-managed services and architectural partnership.
Their approach to customer success is defined by a deep commitment to transparency and knowledge transfer; they aim to empower internal IT teams rather than replace them. This collaborative spirit is reflected in their advocacy for open standards and vendor-neutral integrations, ensuring that clients are never trapped in a proprietary ecosystem. By prioritizing the human element of technical support and maintaining a lean, engineering-heavy organizational structure, Graphene provides the agility of a boutique firm with the technical depth of a global enterprise integrator. Their core values center on reducing technical debt for their clients, ensuring that every infrastructure decision made today is scalable for the next decade of digital transformation.
Graphene SD-WAN: The foundational offering for site-to-site and site-to-cloud connectivity with intelligent path steering.
Graphene Private Core: An add-on service providing access to their global high-speed backbone for improved international performance.
Graphene Secure Edge: The SASE component, including FWaaS, SWG, and IPS/IDS capabilities.
Graphene Remote Access: A client-based or clientless ZTNA solution for mobile and remote workers.
Managed Graphene: A white-glove service where Graphene's NOC manages the entire network lifecycle, from deployment to ongoing monitoring.
Product Differentiation
The product portfolio at Graphene Networks is characterized by the seamless convergence of networking and security, specifically through their advanced Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) implementations. A key technical advantage is their use of a global private backbone that bypasses the congestion and security risks of the public internet, providing deterministic performance for mission-critical applications.
Graphene’s solutions stand out through their "Single Pane of Glass" management interface, which provides deep observability into both network traffic and security threats simultaneously. While many competitors offer bolted-on security features, Graphene integrates Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) capabilities directly into the data plane. Their innovation in automated path selection and real-time packet steering ensures that latency-sensitive traffic, such as VoIP and video, receives priority across hybrid cloud environments. Furthermore, their hardware-agnostic edge devices allow for rapid deployment across diverse geographical locations, making them a leader in reducing the time-to-value for global infrastructure overhauls. This technical flexibility, combined with AI-driven predictive analytics for proactive troubleshooting, positions Graphene as a high-performance alternative to legacy MPLS providers.
