As your clients' business models change, they rely on you to offer future-ready solutions that can adapt and expand to meet their increasing network and security requirements. You must deliver a solution that provides unmatched security without impacting their operational agility. While Fortinet's Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) meets all of these requirements, your clients may not be aware of what this solution entails. Here's a quick and simple overview of what they need to know.

Understanding SASE: The Future of Network Security

SASE is a cloud-based architecture that combines network and security services into a single cloud service. This model is gaining attention from IT leaders as it extends network and security capabilities beyond typical perimeters. In today's hybrid and remote work environments, people are the new perimeter. SASE allows remote workers to take advantage of firewall as a service (FWaaS)secure web gateway (SWG)zero-trust network access (ZTNA) and various threat detection functions. 

Why Your Clients Need A SASE Approach

It’s likely that your clients’ networks rely on cloud-based applications to run their businesses and support distributed workflows stemming from remote and mobile users. As a result, their networks have expanded beyond traditional edges, causing their IT teams to grapple with securing an expanded attack surface. Unfortunately, their existing security tools aren’t up to the task of securing and managing these new endpoints. That’s where SASE comes in. When properly implemented, a SASE approach empowers your clients to apply for secure access no matter where their users, workloads, devices or applications are located. In addition, SASE offers
