The advent of 5G technology introduces both opportunities and challenges for modern enterprises, particularly in the realm of network security. This presentation will explore the application and benefits of cloud-based Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions that integrate software-defined wide area networking (SD-WAN) with advanced security functions to create robust, agile networks. The session will illustrate the increasing complexity and security risks associated with the expanding networks of IoT devices and agile mobile connectivity, which is needed for modern businesses, and how SASE technologies address these challenges – by employing zero-trust security models and remote browser isolation to safeguard against unauthorized access and cyber threats.
