About Netskope SASE

Netskope SASE accelerates networking
and security transformation

Organizations are rapidly adopting SASE to safeguard data wherever it moves, support digital transformation efforts, and realize better efficiency and ROI from their technology. Netskope’s converged SASE platform provides AI-driven zero trust security and simplified, optimized connectivity to any network location or device, including IoT.

What is Secure Access Service Edge (SASE)?

SASE is a term coined by Gartner in 2019 and has quickly risen through the ranks to become one of the top aspirational networking and security concepts of the current decade. Given that many users and applications no longer live and operate on a corporate network, access and security measures can’t depend on conventional hardware appliances in the corporate datacenter.

SASE promises to deliver the necessary networking and security capabilities in the form of cloud-based services. Done properly, a SASE network model eliminates perimeter-based appliances and legacy solutions. Instead of delivering the traffic to an appliance for security, users connect to the SASE cloud service to safely access and use web services, applications, and data with the consistent enforcement of security policy.

Today, leaders across IT, security, and networking and the world’s best-known analyst firms agree that the explosion of data and devices, along with the numerous ways that people connect, communicate, and collaborate, make the transformation of both networking and security a critical imperative for businesses and governments. It is in this transformation where Netskope is uniquely positioned to help customers with a fully converged SASE platform.

Simplify IT operations, reduce costs and increase agility with
Netskope SASE

Despite the digital transformation potential of SASE, to-date organizations have struggled to realize the benefits of networking and security convergence. Most solutions lack tight integration, are missing key networking or security features, or fail to provide a cloud architecture – which increases security risk, can cause network downtime, have a poor ROI and high cost of ownership.

With Netskope’s fully converged SASE solution, customers can leverage an industry-recognized, full stack SSE – including FWaaS, SWG, CASB and ZTNA – that is fast, easy to use, and secures transactions wherever your users and data go, combined with the power of Borderless WAN to ensure secure, reliable connectivity from every site, cloud, remote user or IoT device. The Netskope SASE solution allows customers to benefit from a zero trust security approach, combined with network optimization to deliver on the vision of security without performance trade-offs.

SASE features and
benefits

Netskope SASE unifies networking and security services in a cloud-based architecture to protect users, applications, and data everywhere, while also providing fast, reliable access from anywhere.

Reduce network cost and complexity

With Netskope SASE, enterprises can better support and secure a hybrid workforce by integrating cloud-delivered security with fast, reliable access to support any user, device or site. This eliminates the traditional defined network perimeter and patchwork of hard to manage, multiple networking and security point products including routers, firewalls, VPNs, proxies, SSL decryption, and content inspection devices for protecting data and guarding against threats.

Improve overall security posture

Enterprises can employ the Netskope SASE solution’s comprehensive cloud-delivered SSE – including SWG, CASB, FWaaS and ZTNA, to address the ever-evolving threat landscape, protect valuable data and secure both managed and unmanaged users and devices. This approach reduces risk, narrows the attack surface and ensures enterprise users, apps, data and the growing Internet of Things (IoT) are secured and protected anywhere and everywhere.

Go direct-to-net and eliminate backhaul

Legacy WAN architectures fail to address the future of hybrid work and apps and data now in the cloud. With the Netskope SASE solution, enterprises can take advantage of lower cost connectivity options for fast Internet breakouts and save on costly MPLS links. This approach eliminates the added latency of traffic backhauling and supports a “many-to-many” WAN architecture that connects and secures any user, site or device to any app, site or cloud without sacrificing on performance.

Optimize the application experience

Enterprises are increasingly moving from hosting apps in the legacy data center to embracing multi-cloud and consuming thousands of SaaS apps including business productivity suites like Office 365 or G-Suite, as well as sensitive voice and video apps like Zoom and RingCentral. The Netskope SASE technology allows customers to prioritize traffic, optimize flows and ensure a superior quality of experience while at the same time delivering on the security mission and meeting compliance objectives.

Improve network resilience and business agility

Legacy networking and security solutions lock customers into a specific architecture, which makes it challenging for enterprises to support new users, sites or IoT devices, plus this approach is prone to single points of failure and high latency. The Netskope SASE solution unlocks the potential of digital transformation with a converged approach to networking and security. It supports any connection including new Internet-connected devices, remote users and BYOD, as well as branch traffic going direct to the Internet while ensuring security is always in place combined with the consistent network performance that is expected.
