Achieve your business objectives through SASE.

Investing in SASE can help you meet diverse business goals.
The path there can be littered with many hurdles such as technology interoperability and agreement on priorities. 
But when implemented effectively, SASE will enable you to: 

  •  

     

     

     

     

Apply identity-based security protection

Implement a common, zero-trust based approach across the business to help ensure greater protection against attacks and data loss.

Improve application performance

Optimise application routing wherever the user may be connected to the network, and provide a consistent user experience.

Simplify security across distributed users and devices

Minimise the number of security technologies your teams have to manage and maintain.

Increase business agility

Deploy new applications and users more effectively by moving your operations to the cloud.

Optimise network resources

Leverage SD WAN that can increase your overall performance through a combination of caching, application organisation, secure connectivity and intelligent path control.

Dynamically scale security

Scale quickly while still being able to optimise both network performance and security.

Simplify operations

Reduce the complexity of your IT infrastructure by consolidating network and security into a unified cloud-based technology stack.

Reduce risk

Increase your risk confidence with the knowledge that critical assets and data have homogenised security policies applied.

Reduce costs

Consolidate underutilised or redundant technologies to help streamline your costs.

Improve M&A

Make mergers and acquisitions (M&A) easier through more efficient adding and removing of users and applications.

The expertise you’ll need for a successful SASE transition.

Implementing SASE is complex. It comprises multiple technologies and requires migrating thousands of users, often across hundreds of business locations. Taking a phased approach that prioritises your most critical business needs will help you overcome the challenges large enterprises face when embarking upon a SASE migration.


Operating model

Defining a target operating model will help you pinpoint your desired end state and help you determine how, and by whom, your policies should be managed.
 


Vendor selection

Choosing the right vendor/s to meet all your business and technical requirements requires detailed analysis and consideration as features across SASE technology can vary.


Roadmap

Creating a roadmap that outlines the phases of your program of work will help ensure your SASE transition is handled effectively and with minimal disruption to your business.
