SSE
Redefine network security with a unified, agile cloud-first architecture for hybrid networks.
SASE
Secure Access Service Edge
Unifying networking and security for the digital era, delivering simplicity, agility, and protection for every user, device, and workload in today’s AI-driven world.
Making the Case
The pace of digital transformation and cloud adoption continues to accelerate, while remote and hybrid work is now an established part of everyday business. Yet many organizations find that their existing network and security architectures are holding them back.
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) provides a way forward by converging SD-WAN and Secure Service Edge ( SSE) into a unified, cloud-delivered framework. This shift reduces complexity, improves operational efficiency, and ensures consistent security for all users, whether in the office, at home, or on the move.
By uniting networking and security, SASE helps organizations grow without added overhead, adapt quickly to change, and safeguard critical assets. It provides a strong foundation for an AI-driven world, enforcing Zero Trust policies consistently across users, devices, IoT, and AI workloads, while ensuring predictable performance for cloud and AI applications.
SASE is a core part of StreamlineX, our framework for creating networks that are secure, optimized, observable, and AI-ready. It unites connectivity and security in a single design, giving IT the clarity and confidence to support users, devices, and AI workloads, and giving your business the freedom to innovate without compromise.
Our Approach
We take a consultancy-first approach to deploying SASE, ensuring maximum value from your investment. Every step is collaborative, outcome-driven, and tailored to your unique environment.
Initial Assessment and Requirements Gathering
- We start by working with you to define clear objectives for SASE, considering technical requirements, commercial needs, operational models, and regulatory obligations. These are captured in a Solutions Requirements Document (SRD), which shapes the design process.
Design and Architecture Planning
- We identify the right SASE solutions for your needs, whether from a single vendor or a best-of-breed mix, so we can design a tailored architecture that unites networking and security in line with your performance, visibility, and risk management goals. Our design process covers site planning, SD-WAN overlays, traffic policies, and security controls, all built on proven best practices and compliance standards.
Pilot Deployment or Proof of Concept (PoC)
- We then validate the design in a controlled pilot or PoC environment, testing functionality, performance, and security effectiveness in real-world scenarios. This provides measurable results against predefined success criteria and builds confidence before full rollout.
Policy Development and Fine-Tuning
- Using insights from the pilot, we develop and refine policies that consistently enforce Zero Trust principles across users, devices, IoT, and AI workloads. We fine-tune rule sets based on stakeholder feedback, performance data, and evolving compliance needs.
Implementation and Rollout
- Once proven, we manage the full-scale deployment across your network. Our engineers ensure a smooth rollout, reducing risk and providing training and support so your IT teams can confidently manage and maintain the solution.
Continuous Monitoring and Optimization
- We put in place continuous monitoring and analytics to ensure SASE adapts to evolving threats, business demands, and AI-driven workloads. Regular reviews and updates keep policies effective, performance optimized, and your environment resilient by design.
Key Benefits:
- Unified Networking and Security
- Consistent Zero Trust Policy Enforcement
