Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) & Security Service Edge (SSE) Briefing

The shift to cloud computing, remote work, evolving work habits, and a more tech-savvy workforce has redefined how and where users access applications and critical resources. These changes are driving a transformation in enterprise networks to provide a consistent and secure user experience. This briefing will delve into the convergence of networking and security through Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and the security-focused capabilities of Security Service Edge (SSE), highlighting how your organization can prepare to leverage SASE or SSE to achieve secure, business-critical outcomes.

Details

Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE (pronounced "sassy"), is an innovative concept introduced by Gartner in their August 2019 report, The Future of Network Security in the Cloud. The report predicted that SASE would become the new standard by combining wide-area network (WAN) capabilities with the security functions of Security Service Edge (SSE) into a cloud-delivered service model. Since then, new solution components have continuously emerged to help secure the edge to cloud, driven by the ever-evolving security landscape and the need for organizations to protect their networks in an increasingly dynamic environment. Staying informed on these cutting-edge solutions is more critical than ever, and that's where WWT can assist.
