Introduction

You can deploy Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud to provide VPN connectivity, access control, and inspection for services in the AWS cloud.

Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN is available in the Amazon marketplace as an Amazon machine image (AMI) that allows you to run a Secure SD-WAN Engine instance in Amazon EC2. You deploy Secure SD-WAN Engines in the same way as other virtual machines in Amazon EC2.
