Unify Your Organization's Security with SSE
Get the world’s most comprehensive security service edge (SSE) protection across your workforce, workloads, IoT/OT, and business partners.
Protect and accelerate your business with SSE
SSE is a network-agnostic security framework commonly adopted as the first stepping stone toward a secure access service edge (SASE) framework, giving your organization the power to:
Eliminate the attack surface
Prevent compromise
Improve user experience
Reduce costs and complexity
The Problem
Legacy security impedes transformation
Traditional network security can't protect cloud-based apps and data, stop lateral movement, inspect encrypted traffic at scale, or follow remote users and endpoints. Security, performance, and user experience are compromised. In short, legacy protection is no longer fit for purpose.

Zero trust network access (ZTNA)
Enables secure access to internal and private apps and services for remote users, with an adaptive trust model that never trusts implicitly.
Cloud access security broker (CASB)
Sits between cloud app users and cloud services to enforce data security and threat
protection.
Firewall as a service (FWaaS)
Delivers advanced Layer 7/next-generation firewall capabilities from the cloud.

FAQ
With secure access service edge (SASE), both network and security services are consumed through a unified, cloud-delivered approach, with a focus on improving the user-to-cloud-app experience while reducing costs and complexity. In particular, the SSE slice focuses on unifying security services, including SWG, ZTNA, CASB, FWaaS, and others.
SSE supports remote workforces by extending them consistent security and secure access, wherever they are. Because it effectively eliminates data center backhauling, SSE offers significantly lower latency and better performance, and lets organizations enforce uniform security policies, monitor user activities, and stop threats.
