Why SASE?

Modern security for modern threats

As traditional network boundaries disappear, business success increasingly relies on securely connecting all your users to applications and data from any location, all while optimising for performance.

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) has emerged as the best framework to achieve this. SASE not only delivers this capability, but it’s also a stepping stone to Zero-Trust.

Data#3’s Managed Secure Edge Access, (powered by Cisco SASE and delivered as a managed service) offers the simplest, most cost-effective way to implement SASE. The powerful combination of Data#3’s deep networking and security expertise, and Cisco’s industry leading SASE technology, delivers round the clock secure network access – without sacrificing network performance.

FAQs

How does Data#3’s SASE solution integrate with existing investments?

Our solution seamlessly integrates with SD-WAN environments – including Cisco Meraki – and leverages existing and new Cisco investments, to enhance value and ease your transition to a zero-trust network.

Is the SASE solution licensed per user?

Yes, our SASE solution follows a SaaS-based model, licensed per user, ensuring scalability and cost-effectiveness for businesses of varying sizes.

Is Data#3’s SASE solution a good fit for my company?

Our SASE solution is ideal for those making their first move to SASE or for customers who find themselves unable to effectively manage separate, potentially legacy security systems – like firewalls and VPNs. Given that SD-WAN is the foundational networking component upon which our SASE solutions are built, it is also ideal for those seeking an SD-WAN investment with a SASE add-on.

For education customers, our SASE offering provides a cost-effective security solution with extensive coverage.

How does Data#3’s SASE managed service compare to the SD-WAN managed service?

SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) and SD-WAN (Software-Defined Wide Area Network) both enhance connectivity and security distributed networks, but they serve different purposes.

SD-WAN optimises network connectivity and control, improving traffic routing across multiple locations. It’s great for linking remote sites to central resources, especially with cloud access. On the other hand, SASE builds on SD-WAN’s connectivity by adding integrated security, like firewalls and identity checks, straight into the network. It’s ideal for businesses needing robust security for a distributed workforce accessing cloud applications anywhere, anytime.

How does Data#3’s SASE solution compare to a SOC solution?

Our SASE as a managed service offering provides a robust, budget-friendly alternative halfway to a full SOC solution, covering extensive security needs while being significantly more affordable.

Can Data#3’s SASE solution support large-scale deployments?

Our SASE solution can cater to businesses requiring support for 50-100 users, with the ability to scale to hundreds or even thousands of users.
