How AI Agents Reason, Act, and Automate at Scale
In our previous post, we explored the urgent need for intelligent automation in network automation, specifically how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI agents to dynamically discover and interact with the necessary tools. But access to tools is only part of the equation. To truly operate autonomously in complex environments, agents need not only connectivity but also intelligence.
SD-WAN, SASE, SSE, and the Coffee Shop Network: From Distraction to AI Superpower
Back in 2018, I wondered (perhaps loudly if SD-WAN was just IT’s hype-of-the-year, destined for the same eye-rolls as signature-based antivirus and GDPR compliance drives. Even then, I knew we couldn’t let messaging fatigue blind us to real technology shifts. Fast-forward to 2025: SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) not only stuck around, but became the springboard to something far bigger – SASE (Secure Access Service Edge).

This year, the theme was AI, as evidenced by the keynote, a large majority of the talks, and a walk around the vendor floor. The keynote talk was hosted by Swami Sivasubramanian, VP of Agentic AI at AWS.
Seeing the Bigger Picture: Why Security Needs Depth, Not Just Products
A recent BBC article, “Weak password allowed hackers to sink a 158-year-old company,” outlined a serious security lapse. This case reinforces the message that we, at Teneo, advocate every day: true resilience comes from defense in depth, i.e. policy, product and process, not just tools at the edge. In a recent customer engagement, we discussed a transition from VPN to ZTNA. While ZTNA offers enhanced security including continual checking, improved segmentation and a minimized attack surface.
