Fully aligned with SASE's edge-based security approach, the Zero Trust security construct can be executed using the SASE framework.
To understand how SASE is an approach that enables a Zero Trust security model, we'll dig a little deeper into Gartner's vision.
In its introduction to the SASE model, Gartner listed many capabilities and elements that can form SASE platforms - network-as-a-service technologies, such as SD-WAN, CDNs and WAN optimization, as well as network security services, such as cloud SWGs, VPNs, NGFWs, ZTNA, cloud access security brokers and RBI. As individual components of SASE, these are available today and in varying degrees, are being used by most organizations.
By integrating network infrastructure capabilities with network security functions, SASE enables security controls to be enforced at all network connection points.
Upgrade your NGFWs and VPNs to add Zero Trust Network Access capabilities, or add RBI to bring Zero Trust web browsing to your organization.
