By transforming WAN and security architectures with SASE, enterprises can ensure direct AND secure access to cloud-hosted applications and services for users, regardless of location or the devices used to access them. Networking and security are truly converging at the WAN edge. To realize all the benefits the cloud offers, and to implement a secure access service edge, enterprises need to transform both their WAN and security architectures, not just one or the other. You can start the journey with SD-WAN or with cloud-security or with both. You may not want to be forced into transforming both at the same time – you likely want to transform these architectures at a pace that makes sense for the company. Start by evaluating your WAN and security requirements based on business needs. Many enterprises really need best of breed WAN technology AND best of breed cloud-delivered security, without compromising on either.

IoT devices create some security challenges that are not directly addressed by SASE. The SASE model, which is the combination of advanced SD-WAN capabilities and cloud-delivered security services, must be augmented with a zero-trust network security capability. It must be able to provide visibility into user identity, device identity and their role in the business to enable fine-grained segmentation. The network must enforce segmentation so that users and devices can only reach destinations consistent with their roles.

SASE is the combination of advanced WAN edge functions, unified and deployed at the branch, married with a rich set of cloud-delivered security services. Most enterprises prefer best-of-breed WAN technology and best-of-breed cloud-delivered security, without compromising either. According to the results of a recent Ponemon Institute security best practices survey, of more than 1800 networking and security IT professionals, more than 70% of respondents favored multi-vendor integrations that simplify deployment and ongoing operations without compromising networking or security capabilities. But how can we make a multi-vendor solution easy to deploy and easy to update? To implement cloud-delivered security and deliver the best cloud app performance, you must configure secure IPsec tunnels between branch locations and cloud security enforcement points. And it’s imperative that you configure enforcement points to be as close to the branch location as possible to minimize delay which in turn results in the best application performance. With integrated orchestration that automates a best-of-breed multi-vendor SASE architecture, IT and the enterprise realizes the best in operational efficiency without compromising either the networking component or the cloud security component of a SASE architecture.

This video clarifies some common misinterpretations of SASE and what it is and what it isn’t as it relates to the WAN. Spoiler alert! It’s not SASE VERSUS SD-WAN! SD-WAN is actually a foundational component of SASE architecture. If you read the initial Gartner report from the Summer of 2019 that introduced the SASE framework as well as follow-on reports, they clearly define SASE as the combination of SD-WAN and security functions delivered in the cloud.
