After the pandemic, the demands on IT have taken a leap. The requirements for a modern organization have changed radically. Users need to be able to work from anywhere, everything has to be in the cloud, and the hackers have never been hungrier.
Too many organizations are stuck with outdated technologies such as physical firewalls, MPLS and VPNs, which make management more cumbersome and security more inefficient. Even with more modern solutions, it overlooks how many resources are required to keep them running.
Too many organizations are trapped in a fragmented landscape of networking and security solutions that is disintegrated and time-consuming to manage. Essentially, they drain resources and create security gaps.
So how do we solve the legacy problem? According to Gartner, the solution is to combine network and security solutions on one unified and integrated platform. Very simplified, this is the essence of what they have called Secure Access Service Edge (or SASE).
And it's a revolutionary way of thinking about networking and security. With SASE, you achieve the security and agility needed to realize a simplified and agile network and security platform.
Basically, SASE is designed from scratch:
to solve current and future requirements for quick access to applications and data...
with complete built-in security...
for all users, from any location in the world.
Our SASE platform is built on Cato Networks, which has created the world's first single-vendor SASE platform from scratch. It delivers on SASE's promise to bring together all the necessary networking and security features you need on one integrated platform.
It follows an integrated approach, where performance and security are optimized to ensure that all functions are consistently delivered everywhere and controlled automatically.
Fundamentally, the platform consists of a global private backbone with locations (POPs) all over the world. Each location operates with the same software engine that secures and optimizes all your traffic in the cloud.
