SASE Introduction
Recently coined by Gartner, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) has been dominating Information Technology projects for both cost savings and needed pervasive security. This book provides a comprehensive foundational level understanding of what SASE is, how to leverage SASE for success, how to learn through each evolution, where to find more information, and what the future of integrated secure access solutions looks like.
We will begin this by introducing the concept of SASE for those who are still trying to clarify what SASE is or what it is not. In this chapter, we will cover how the market is defining SASE, what the actual market is for SASE, why we need to embrace SASE, and how to present SASE to your organization in a comprehensive manner.
In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:
- Define SASE—what SASE is and what SASE is not
- Market SASE—a market evaluation of SASE
- Value SASE—value proposition, SASE services
- Embrace SASE—embracing the idea of a SASE framework
- Present SASE—presenting the idea of SASE and clearing the hype cycle
