Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)

An evolving network architecture requires a new security approach

What is Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)?

The rise of remote workers, coupled with the growing push of company data and infrastructure into the cloud, prompted Gartner in 2019 to define a new approach to networking and security: Secure Access Service Edge (SASE).

SASE offers an alternative to traditional data center-oriented security. It unifies networking and security services into a cloud-delivered service to provide access and security from edge to edge — including the data center, remote offices, roaming users, and beyond. By choosing a vendor with a proven track record in both networking and security, a SASE solution can simplify daily management, offer better security protection, and improve network performance.

  • Reduce reliance on appliances, streamlining network and security operations in the cloud
  • Converge resources with an efficient as-a-service model

SASE simplified:
Cisco Umbrella, the heart of Cisco’s SASE architecture

Cisco Umbrella offers a broad set of security functions that until now required separate firewall, web gateway, threat intelligence, and cloud access security broker (CASB) solutions.

By enabling all of this from a single, cloud-delivered service and dashboard, Umbrella significantly reduces the time, money, and resources previously required for deployment, configuration, and integration tasks.
