Simplifying Security: Understanding SASE Fundamentals

5:30pm - 8pm ET | Boston, MA

Event Overview

Join us as we demystify Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and its foundational components, which have significantly transformed the cybersecurity landscape since Gartner first introduced the concept nearly five years ago. This discussion will guide you through the evolution from traditional network security to SASE, offering a clear breakdown of key concepts such as Security Service Edge (SSE), single-vendor SASE, and Unified SASE. As SASE continues to reshape security strategies for enterprises globally, understanding these components is crucial for evaluating and selecting the right solution for your organization amidst the surrounding hype. 

Meet with your peers and discover practical ways to streamline your security strategy and enhance your defenses in today’s complex hybrid work environment. Learn how to leverage SASE to ensure consistent security across distributed locations, secure cloud applications, and robust protection of data in an increasingly dynamic cloud ecosystem. This session will equip you with the insights and strategies needed to adapt to modern security challenges and optimize your security posture effectively.
