Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The future of work and the connected experience
The IT landscape is changing fast. Today there are 20 billion devices connected to the internet. By 2023, that number will jump to 29 billion, nearly four devices per person.

More than ever, users are demanding secure, connected experiences from their devices, at all times, regardless of any business innovations or disruptions that are going on. In today’s digital world, the pressure is on for the network to allow everything to connect and work together.
