CHALLENGE

The increasing complexity caused by point solutions and resulting technology silos, with separate configuration interfaces and incomplete control systems, makes it nearly impossible to maintain consistency and control across the infrastructure.

A lack of transparency slows down troubleshooting and increases security risks across the organization. The network becomes inflexible and static, while security measures are fragmented across different domains. Combined with the incompatibility of cloud and mobile-first approaches, both the network and security systems hinder business processes instead of enabling innovation and agility.

SOLUTION

Our Managed SASE Service is the answer to these challenges.

Our Managed SASE (mSASE) offering is comprehensive, flexible, and highly scalable. It provides a unified solution that integrates all network edge components with the security and connectivity functions your business needs. With mSASE, you benefit from direct access to our IT security experts who support and advise you on all relevant aspects.

use cases

Use Case 1: PLS migration to SD-WAN

More performance, lower costs: the smart alternative to MPLS

Companies are faced with the challenge of adapting their network infrastructure to the increasing demands of the digital world. Traditional MPLS is powerful, but expensive, inflexible and difficult to scale – especially for companies with multiple locations or a global presence.

Connection quality of MPLS meets flexibility of SD-WAN

By using the Cato Edge SD-WAN and multiple Internet connections, you can increase capacity, improve resilience and reduce costs per Mbps at the same time. Companies with a global presence in particular benefit from Cato’s global, private backbone, which replaces costly MPLS services. The result: lower operating costs, optimized performance and maximum IT security – worldwide.

With the SASE solution from Cato Networks, you get a modern, powerful and fail-safe alternative that combines the advantages of MPLS and SD-WAN.

Redefining global connectivity: Fast, reliable application access worldwide

Whether remote workers or locations in distant regions – unreliable networks and high latencies often make accessing applications a test of patience. Unpredictable performance impairs productivity and jeopardizes efficiency.

Optimized application usage through intelligent network control

Cato Networks’ SASE solution provides you with a global, high-performance network infrastructure that optimizes access to on-premise and cloud applications worldwide. The use of a global, private backbone with integrated traffic optimization and acceleration guarantees SLA-supported application access with predictable performance and low latency.

In addition, the “Smart Egress” function improves the performance of SaaS applications. Companies can define application-specific rules to route traffic via the optimal point of presence (PoP). The result: significantly faster response times, smooth application usage and an improved user experience.

Network branch offices securely and centrally: How to reduce IT costs and administrative effort

Branch offices pose a challenge in terms of secure Internet access. Installing and managing security solutions in each individual branch is complicated and costly. Added to this is the need to route internet traffic back to a central data center or hub.

Efficient, scalable branch office management thanks to centralized security solution

With the SASE solution from Cato Networks, you get a security solution that enables centralized management of all branch offices and locations worldwide. Instead of implementing separate security solutions in each branch office, all data traffic – from both Internet and WAN connections – is protected by a cloud-native security service edge (SSE).

By using the Cato Edge SD-WAN and Cato Clients, your entire WAN, Internet and cloud traffic is protected against threats. This reduces the complexity of various security solutions such as firewalls or cloud security services while significantly reducing operating costs. Thanks to continuous security upgrades and comprehensive protection guidelines, your network infrastructure is always up to date – without additional maintenance effort. The result: secure, centralized Internet access for all branch offices, while reducing complexity and saving costs.

Cloud acceleration and control: Maximum performance for cloud applications

Whether SaaS or hybrid cloud environments – the performance and security of cloud data traffic are crucial for smooth use. However, conventional network solutions such as MPLS or SD-WAN reach their limits here: MPLS is not optimized for cloud connectivity and SD-WAN is dependent on fluctuations in the public internet.

Seamless cloud connectivity with minimal latency

With the SASE solution from Cato Networks, you benefit from a powerful, secure and optimized cloud connection – without additional cloud appliances or expensive direct connections such as AWS DirectConnect or Microsoft ExpressRoute.

All data traffic is routed via Cato’s global, private backbone and automatically transported to the nearest PoP (Point of Presence) in the cloud data center. As these PoPs share locations with leading cloud providers, latency is virtually zero.

Thanks to simple, application-specific rules, you can control exactly where your data traffic leaves the SASE network to achieve the best possible performance. The result: fast cloud applications, reduced latency and reliable, centrally managed cloud connectivity – worldwide.

Hybrid working without compromise: Security and performance for mobile users

The increase in remote working and hybrid working models presents companies with new challenges in terms of network security and performance. Although conventional VPN solutions offer secure access, they are often difficult to scale. In addition, they do not provide the necessary flexibility that companies need for the secure and uncomplicated networking of remote employees and mobile devices.

ZTNA instead of VPN: Zero Trust for maximum protection and performance

With the SASE solution from Cato Networks, you get secure and powerful remote connectivity for your entire workforce. Thanks to the globally scalable cloud architecture, mobile employees benefit from stable, fast connections – regardless of location.

Instead of allowing users into the network across the board, Cato relies on Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). Access is restricted to the exact resources that the user requires. Risk-based access controls are continuously applied to protect all data traffic and prevent data loss.

In addition, the Cato Client offers advanced endpoint protection with the latest generation of anti-malware technology that fends off malware infections and detects unusual endpoint behavior to respond quickly to security incidents. The result: secure, optimized remote working without compromising performance.

Secure and productive when working from home: seamless remote access without compromising security

The requirements for working from home are increasing and companies need to ensure that their employees can work securely and productively at all times, regardless of their location. Traditional VPN solutions often reach their limits when it comes to efficiently supporting a large number of remote users while ensuring security and performance.

Maximum security and performance for home office employees thanks to scalable SASE technology

With Cato Networks’ SASE solution, your home office employees benefit from the same scalable and secure infrastructure used for site-to-site and cloud connections. Once your on-premise and cloud infrastructure is connected to SASE, you can enable easy provisioning of VPN clients for all employees working from home or requiring remote access.

Unlike traditional VPNs and SDP products, SASE provides powerful cloud scaling with a global private backbone that efficiently routes traffic from thousands of home users to all applications. Threats are continuously monitored and access controls are enforced to ensure a secure working environment. The result: a secure, fast network and application experience for everyone in the home office – with the same productivity as in the office.

Simplify complex networks: An all-in-one platform for centralized management

Managing network and security infrastructures can be complex and time-consuming, especially when different systems and consoles need to be combined. Such distributed architectures make it difficult to identify problems quickly and manage them efficiently.

Greater efficiency and security through centralized management and real-time analyses

With the SASE solution from Cato Networks, you have everything in a single, user-friendly console: Complete management, configuration and monitoring of your network and security infrastructure. Integrated access to real-time analytics allows you to identify network and security issues early and configure the network optimally for better performance and user experience.

By replacing network and security solutions with a single platform that fully automates resilience, scalability and IT security at a comparable cost, your IT team can focus on strategic tasks instead of spending time on complex management. Simplified and centralized management that increases efficiency, lowers operating costs and increases your IT team’s production.
