Many security teams are looking to better understand zero trust security and SASE, including whether or not they are mutually exclusive or compatible.

What exactly are each of these security models, and how can companies determine which one will be more appropriate for their security teams as they seek to protect the broader business from cyber threats?

Organizations are looking to secure their expanding surface areas with policies that enforce least-privilege access control via technologies like zero trust network access, secure web gateway, and cloud access security broker - to name a few.

Sometimes the effort to follow zero trust security principles can inadvertently drive up the amount of deployed point products and produce unanticipated disparities in protection across use cases.

Security teams can configure policies that safeguard SaaS apps, control access to web destinations, identify shadow IT, and secure apps on-premises from a sole control point with a single dashboard for configuring wide-ranging policies.

By uniting SASE and zero trust, organizations can establish and maintain an environment that reliably enforces security procedures for any interaction on or off premises - through one unified platform.
