What’s your network edge security posture?

With more apps moving to the cloud and the recent influx of hybrid work, traditional modes of network and security have started to lag behind market demand.

How can you tell if your edge security practices are missing the mark?

Start by reviewing these 3 critical pain points.

  1. Overly complex connectivity
    The number of wired and especially wireless devices on the edge has made it tough to maintain visibility and control. As a result, IT is left juggling multiple interfaces, which can increase costs and create challenges for both IT and end users.
  2. Lack of seamless access to services for employees
    Complexity resulting from legacy tech compounds resource and staffing challenges. Seamless access improves the user experience, drives operational efficiency and ultimately boosts business performance.
  3. Missing built-in security
    Dispersed IT environments and data at the edge put enterprise networks at increased risk. Add the complexity of managing users, devices and data across multiplatform environments and it’s easy to see why built-in security is so difficult yet so critical.

SASE for simplified connectivity

For companies seeking to simplify their network and security landscape, the Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE provides a competitive solution.

SASE acts as the convergence of networking and security feature sets through a cloud-delivered model — all unified under one single management point. This solution unites various connectivity points and reinforces each with industry-leading network and security technology.

SASE facilitates a better user experience, too — enabling a secure and tested connection from users to their apps, regardless of location.
