Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)

Secure access service edge combines networking and security functions in the cloud to deliver seamless, secure access to applications, anywhere users work. Core functions include software-defined wide area network, secure web gateway, firewall as a service, cloud access security broker, and zero-trust network access. The SASE model aims to consolidate these functions in a single, integrated cloud service.

Enterprises face multiple security challenges in securing endpoints across global locations, network and application access. Identifying the gaps in your security approach can be tough and the sheer volume and complexity of other tools make it almost impossible to ensure you’re getting the right security, where and when you need it. Complicated deployments and inconvenient processes also means that corners end up being cut and users start to create workarounds to circumvent security.

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a unified solution designed to streamline and strengthen your security across the network. There are three basic fundamentals to any SASE solution

• Simplicity — Consolidate services
• Security — Control and protect, anywhere and everywhere
• Scalability — Evolve to meet changing network and security needs

The core functions include software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN), firewall as a service, secure web gateway (SWG)s, cloud access security broker (CASB), and secure endpoint with zero trust network access (ZTNA). The goal of the SASE model is to consolidate these functions—which were traditionally delivered as standalone solutions—in a single, integrated cloud service.   

SASE has several key benefits  

• Broad, reliable security coverage across all ports and protocols  
• Security protection on and off trusted network  
• Rapid deployment and flexible enforcement levels  
• Immediate value and low total cost of ownership  
• Single dashboard for efficient management  
• Instant scalability across a global network
