Hybrid work has expanded the attack surface. As organizations scale multi-cloud and multi-edge networks, gaps between networking and security create new risks - especially when relying on VPN-only or siloed solutions.

This checklist outlines the five essential requirements every organization should demand from a modern SASE solution.

Your SASE solution must include:

• Single-vendor integration to unify networking and security across cloud and on-prem environments
• Enterprise-grade security stack (FWaaS, ZTNA, CASB, DLP, IPS, SWG, sandboxing)
• Unified architecture and agent for consistent protection and simplified user experience
• Full convergence of SD-WAN and security for operational efficiency
• Digital experience monitoring (DEM) to optimize performance and user productivity
