Why Zero Trust SASE is the Path to Secure Network Transformation

Disruptive new technologies and a shift in the way we work have made networks more complex and less secure. According to a recent Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) research survey, 73% of respondents agree that the network environment has become more complex than it was two years ago.

Traditional approaches to networking expand the attack surface and allow lateral threat movement, undermining the overall enterprise security posture. While organizations recognize the importance of zero trust security, many implementations stop at users.

Most recognize the importance of modernization initiatives, such as secure access service edge (SASE) and zero trust, but the perceived complexity of this adaptation can cause organizations to take pause. Determining where to begin, choosing the correct tools to support both short- and long-term needs, and ensuring those tools work together and do not introduce issues for users can all be difficult. This makes identifying solutions that can help unify these projects and specifically address these challenges critical.
