Diving into Secure Access Service Edge

Overview of this book

The SASE concept was coined by Gartner after seeing a pattern emerge in cloud and SD-WAN projects where full security integration was needed. The market behavior lately has sparked something like a "space race" for all technology manufacturers and cloud service providers to offer a "SASE" solution. The current training available in the market is minimal and manufacturer-oriented, with new services being released every few weeks. Professional architects and engineers trying to implement SASE need to take a manufacturer-neutral approach. This guide provides a foundation for understanding SASE, but it also has a lasting impact because it not only addresses the problems that existed at the time of publication, but also provides a continual learning approach to successfully lead in a market that evolves every few weeks. Technology teams need a tool that provides a model to keep up with new information as it becomes available and stay ahead of market hype. With this book, you’ll learn about crucial models for SASE success in designing, building, deploying, and supporting operations to ensure the most positive user experience (UX). In addition to SASE, you’ll gain insight into SD-WAN design, DevOps, zero trust, and next-generation technical education methods.

Act, act, act – any action is better than no action when lives are at stake. In dangerous situations, the only consistent loser is the one who hesitates. Picture your worst reality, and any action taken in that reality will improve your odds of success. Reality treats those who act with a higher statistical probability of success. Most of our educational experience is focused on punishing action taken without thought, but in real life, action creates the opportunity for success.

See something, say something is a model that many law enforcement and marketing programs promote. If you see a problem, tell somebody so that action can be taken. This basic concept requires action and can save your organization from many types of failure. We want and need all developed software to notify of anything that could be a problem. Many security operations leverage software, which analyzes input from all available sources to automatically create a ticket if a pattern is determined...
