WHAT IS SECURE ACCESS SERVICE EDGE (SASE)?
Businesses need a flexible, scalable solution that secures data for cloud-based applications and ensures resilient connectivity across your enterprise. Employees need secure, reliable access to data regardless of their physical location.
Secure access services edge (also known as SASE and pronounced “sassy”) is an industry solution composed of security service edge (SSE) functionality, like cloud access security brokers (CASB), secure web gateway (SWG), zero-trust network access (ZTNA) and firewall as a service (FWaaS) and software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) that is combined into a single, networking and cloud-based cybersecurity solution. SASE provides secure access to data and applications from any device, from anywhere.
