The CISO’s Guide to SASE Adoption

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is vital for securing enterprise cloud environments, combining network security and wide-area network (WAN) capabilities into a unified, cloud-native solution. As organizations increasingly adopt cloud platforms and enable remote work, traditional security perimeters become obsolete. SASE provides dynamic, identity-based access control, ensuring that users and devices only access authorized resources.

Its integration of technologies like Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS), and secure web gateways (SWG) enables real-time threat detection and mitigation. Moreover, SASE's scalability aligns with the agility of cloud environments, offering consistent security policies across distributed workforces. By centralizing security and improving visibility, SASE not only reduces complexity and costs but also fortifies enterprises against evolving cyber threats in an increasingly cloud-dependent world.

This guide covers some of the most common use cases for SASE and outlines key steps to kickstarting your SASE implementation – so you can strengthen your cyber resilience and establish quick wins.
