Too many tools. Too many logins. Too many compromises.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

SASE promises to solve exactly that. In reality, however, many companies are still in the midst of a transformation: old approaches are coming up against new demands, and the complexity continues to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This page shows you where the real problems lie \u2013 and how other companies are tackling them today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to expect:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Practical insights from projects, typical challenges faced by clients, and four ways in which SASE is implemented in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you\u2019d like to discuss the topic rather than just read about it: at the SASE Barbecue, you\u2019ll meet the very people who are implementing these projects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Hybrid working has long been the norm, but in many environments, secure access still relies on approaches that were never designed for this purpose.<\/strong>

The reality for customers:
Users access company resources from anywhere \u2013 whether working from home, on the move, or using different devices. Access is often still routed via VPN, combined with individual security solutions.
Problem:
VPN grants too much trust at once, is difficult to scale, and leads to performance and security issues. At the same time, there is a lack of consistent policy enforcement across all access points.
SASE case for adoption:
Secure, identity-based access instead of network access. A zero-trust approach for all users and devices, regardless of location. Consistent policies and better control over all access.

Security is often seen as an obstacle \u2013 especially when it noticeably impairs the user experience.<\/strong>

The reality for customers:
Greater security often leads to more friction: additional logins, detours via VPN, performance issues or blocked applications.
Problem:
When security hinders the workflow, users look for workarounds. And that is precisely what undermines the actual security strategy.
SASE argument:
Security is brought closer to the user (cloud-based, globally available). Access is controlled based on context and identity, without unnecessary detours. Less friction whilst maintaining a higher level of security.

Many security environments have evolved over the years. And it is precisely this complexity that is driving up costs and risk today.<\/strong>

The reality for the customer:
Numerous standalone network and security solutions, different vendors, many interfaces and high operational overhead.
Problem:
Complexity costs time, resources and money, whilst simultaneously increasing the likelihood of operational errors.
SASE argument:
Consolidation of network and security functions onto a single
platform. Fewer tools, fewer integrations, lower operational overhead. Better overview and simpler management.

Many customers are faced with a fundamental question: should they continue to rely on best-of-breed solutions, or reduce complexity through consolidation?<\/strong>

The reality at the customer\u2019s site:
Over the years, specialised standalone solutions from various vendors have been implemented. Each excels in its own area, but with increasing integration complexity.
Problem:
A \u2018best-of-breed\u2019 approach delivers quality in individual disciplines, but often leads to silos, high operational overhead and a lack of consistency in policies and visibility.
SASE case for adoption:
A platform-based approach with integrated functions rather than isolated tools. Consistent policies and end-to-end control across the network and security. Less coordination effort between different solutions.
