Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)
What is SASE?
Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE converges SD-WAN, a Cloud Network, and Security Service Edge (SSE) functions, including FWaaS, CASB, DLP, SWG, and ZTNA, into a unified, cloud-native service.
With SASE, enterprises can eliminate the effort and costs required to maintain complex and fragmented infrastructure made of point solutions, reduce the risk for breach and data loss with optimal security posture, enable secure work from anywhere, and improve access to global applications on premises and in the cloud. They key components of a true SASE solution are:
-
Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN)
-
Firewall as a Service (FWaaS)
-
Secure Web Gateway (SWG)
-
Zero-Trust Network Access
-
Cloud Network
-
Cloud Access Security Broker
-
Unified Management
​
SASE provides a single cloud-based network that connects and secures any physical, cloud, or mobile enterprise resource, in any location. A SASE architecture has four main characteristics:
-
Identity-driven
-
Cloud-native
-
Support for all edges
-
Globally distributed
Zephon has partnered with Cato Networks to offer a secure platform for network connectivity and security. The aim is to ensure users and resources can connect safely from any location.
Cato Networks provides a global and secure managed SD-WAN service - the Cato Cloud.
Cato Cloud was designed from the ground up to empower networking and security teams to safeguard corporate networks against today’s rapidly evolving threats. Cato’s standout feature is the integration of networking and security into a single platform, ensuring a unified policy is applied across all corporate locations, users, and data.
Since Cato is provided as a cloud service, customers are freed from the hassle of managing upgrades and updates, which can be significant resource drains. Customers don’t need to worry about sizing or scaling network security. Cato’s licensed security service manages all traffic according to customer-specific security policies, while Cato handles the underlying infrastructure.

Why Choose to Implement SASE?
To ensure robust threat and data protection, accelerate digital transformation, and support a remote or hybrid workforce, organizations should seriously consider adopting a SASE framework. For optimal results, assess your current environment and pinpoint critical gaps that need addressing.
Return on Investment
To enhance the Return on Investment (ROI) with SASE, it’s essential to engage in strategic planning and align it with IT projects that support cloud-centric architectures. By leveraging scalable solutions and automation, organizations can optimize their SASE implementations, driving cost efficiencies and achieving operational excellence.
Verified Attack Plans
To simplify prioritization and remediation, results are provided as “Proofs” with graphical and textual representations of each step in a successful attack. This includes which tactics were used, which weaknesses were identified and exploited, how credentials were obtained, and the paths taken to gain privileges and access to systems.
Ease of Management
SASE streamlines network and security management by integrating them into a unified framework, thereby reducing the complexity typically associated with handling multiple security solutions. Additionally, SASE ensures consistent enforcement across all locations and users, which aids in simplifying compliance with various regulatory standards.
