As more businesses embrace cloud-based apps and remote work, traditional network solutions like SD-WAN are falling short. While SD-WAN shines at optimizing traffic flow, it lacks the security features needed to protect against today’s sophisticated cyber threats.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) combines network and security tools into a single cloud-based platform to help businesses address the limitations of traditional solutions, such as:
Adopting SASE can help businesses overcome these hurdles and create a more secure, efficient, and flexible network infrastructure. Read on to explore how SASE can transform your organization's digital landscape.
SASE embeds security features into the network itself, including intrusion prevention systems, data leak prevention, and secure web gateways. This integrated approach eliminates the need for multiple-point solutions, providing comprehensive protection for all your users and devices – no matter where they’re located.
Rather than juggling multiple network and security consoles, SASE enables IT teams to manage everything from a single interface. This consolidated view offers:
Not only does this level of centralized control improve operational efficiency, but it can also enhance your security posture by reducing risks like misconfigurations and policy inconsistencies.
SASE's cloud-native architecture offers substantial cost savings compared to traditional on-premises solutions. Moving your network to the cloud eliminates expensive hardware upgrades, reduces maintenance costs, and simplifies budgeting with predictable subscription-based pricing.
SASE is designed to support work-from-anywhere teams. It provides fast, secure access to applications and data from any location, reduces latency by bypassing centralized data centers, and ensures consistent performance across all devices and networks to ensure a smooth, secure experience for everyone.
If your business uses a mix of cloud and on-premises applications, SASE has you covered. SASE offers:
By supporting hybrid and multi-cloud strategies, SASE helps businesses take advantage of both the flexibility of the cloud and the control and compliance capabilities of on-premises infrastructure.
SASE isn't just a technological upgrade; it has the power to transform your network security, empower your workforce with seamless access, and free up your IT team to focus on innovation. But with so many options out there, navigating the SASE landscape can be tricky.
