The way we work has changed — has your security kept up?
Hybrid workforces, multi-cloud environments, and shadow IT have shattered the traditional security perimeter. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) is now the go-to framework for securing users, data, and apps everywhere, but not all SASE solutions are built to tackle today’s advanced threats.
Attackers are targeting forgotten cloud resources, misconfigured APIs, and third-party gaps — leaving blind spots that basic connectivity alone can’t protect. It’s time to evolve to next-gen SASE: smarter, faster, and powered by AI.
Join Gianluca Busco Arré, Head of Security Service Edge, Global, and Ruma Balasubramanian, President, APAC, in this session as they uncover:
-
AI-powered threat prevention and deep visibility
-
Unified policy control across users, apps, and workloads
-
Streamlined performance for hybrid and remote teams
