Have you ever considered how organizations defend themselves against hackers given the array of risks in our world? I've done some research and it seems secure access service edge (SASE) is an industry leader. SASE is, in essence, a smart security "shield" protecting organizations against breaches, or ideally, stopping breaches before they escalate into a larger incident.
My most favorite part of SASE is that it can detect threats in real time. So, if someone is attempting to brute force their way in or a malicious actor is attempting to exfiltrate data then SASE can prevent that immediately.
Zero Trust Access
In addition, SASE has an added feature of zero trust network access (ZTNA). Zero trust means that each user and device accessing anything, is authenticated each time they access anything. There is no inherent trust. In my experience, this approval model prevents hackers from roaming free inside an organization if they do make it inside.
Prevention of Data Loss
SASE also has Data Loss Prevention (DLP) in which it monitors sensitive documents and prevents "anything suspicious" from leaving your organization. For example, if a document tries to send to an unknown cloud storage account, it would block it incredibly quickly. This can save organizations money and stress.
• Scalable: Small and big businesses will use this.
• Faster Network: Setting up in the cloud makes a world of difference with speed at which applications run.
What is SASE?
In short, SASE is a cloud-based amalgamation of an organization's networking and security. The SASE benefit is to protect the organization in its entirety, protecting offices, remote workers, and cloud-based applications.How SASE Limits the Damage of Breaches
