Click here or press enter for the accessibility optimised versionYour journey toSASEThe demand for anywhere, anytimeaccess has grown as the workforce hasbecome more distributed and cloudtraffic continues to soar.How can IT leverage a simpler, morescalable method to securely connectusers to the applications they need?By bringing network and securityfunctions closer to users and devices,at the edge—and moving to a cloudbased, as-a-service model calledsecure access service edge (SASE).
Remote work accelerated in 2020and with it, SASE adoption.Gartner gave a name to an architecture that’s been in motion for years, heightened by a sudden shift toremote work. While the principles of SASE were in place well before 2020, the pandemic brought SASE tothe forefront as remote access to applications and ‘work from anywhere’ became a top organizationalpriority.SASE marks a shift from the data center as the center of the universe to a more cloud-centric model.Organizations now need the ability to pivot on a dime to enable secure connectivity for in-office, work fromhome, or anywhere in between.Simply put, SASE is another way to describe your journey to the cloud.“SASE enables companies to operate during times of disruption and provides highlysecure, high-performance access to any application, regardless of user location.”Gartner’s Initial Secure Access Service Edge ForecastJoe Skorupa, Nat Smith 2020- Gartner
SASE is a journey many had alreadybegun, one that Cisco has been onfor years.The first thing to know about SASE is that it’s not a product, it’s an architecture.And because everyone starts from a different place, transitioning your network to the cloud is a journey.Some move fast while others take more of a stair-step approach.SASE is a relatively new name but not new for us at Cisco. We’ve already built the foundation for SASE withour cloud-based, scalable architecture.And we have the most complete, end-to-end SASE solution today.Did you know?Gartner defines SASE through fiveprimary services, each of which Ciscodelivers today.
