Make SASE your cybersecurity armor – but don’t go it alone

CIO Business Intelligence

SEPTEMBER 7, 2023

In short, SASE brings together software-defined wide-area networking (SD-WAN) and network security services such as cloud access security broker, firewall as a service, and zero trust network access. Increasingly, organizations are turning to secure access service edge (SASE) as their armor of choice against cyberattacks. The solution?
