Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)

Internet Nerdz

SASE

SASE, or Secure Access Service Edge, is a cybersecurity framework that converges wide-area networking (WAN) and network security services into a single, cloud-delivered service model. This approach enables organizations to provide secure and fast access to applications and data for users regardless of their location.

By integrating networking and security functions, SASE simplifies the management of IT infrastructure, reduces complexity, and enhances security posture. It supports the modern workforce’s needs by ensuring secure connectivity for remote users, branch offices, and cloud resources.

Key components of SASE typically include:

  • Software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN)

  • Secure web gateways (SWG)

  • Cloud access security brokers (CASB)

  • Firewall as a service (FWaaS)

  • Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)

This unified approach allows for consistent security enforcement and improved performance across the network.

Advantages Of SASE

Secure As Fort Knox
SASE builds security features such as URL filtering, anti-malware, IPS, and firewalling directly into the underlying network infrastructure. This means everything from your sites, mobile devices and cloud all receive equal protection.

Reduce Your Overhead
Due to SASE simplifying solutions, in many cases, businesses will need less in terms of infrastructure, which results in lessened costs for you. Additionally, the opposite of how traditional point solutions operate, cost and complexity do not grow at the same rate as the network.

Scalable Like None Other
Similar to what AWS and Azure did for application delivery, SASE offers extremely elastic hyper scalable solutions. Spin sites up and down in a fraction of the time, cutting back on manual labor and making your business more efficient.
