Organizations need to protect remote workers, as employees are accessing data and applications through hybrid environments. It can be achieved by using a secure edge service. SSE is a cloud native architecture that combines networking and security services into a single platform. The unified policy allows for continuous security coverage of cloud, SaaS applications and private apps. Access Control A comprehensive solution for secure service edges (SSEs) is necessary as employees and partners are increasingly using the internet and mobile devices to access data, content, applications and other resources. SSE secures end users against malicious attacks, allows them to securely access cloud, private and web applications, and provides monitoring of their digital experiences. SSE (Cloud Security Engine) is a cloud-based solution that integrates networking, security and other functions. These include SD-WAN software, firewall as a Service, Secure Web Gateways, Cloud Access Security Brokers and Zero Trust network access. It offers consistent application and security enforcement across locations and users while delivering centralized visibility into traffic. SSE uses a zero trust system for access control. It is based solely on user identities and does not place users in the corporate network. It ensures reliable and fast WAN connections, without the use of a VPN. SSE incorporates a robust strategy of defense in depth to detect and prevent malware, as well as other threats. Threat Protection SSE provides threat protection to internet sessions. This ensures that users can connect securely and safely to critical business applications, no matter where they may be located. This facilitates hybrid work, protects private and cloud data connectivity, speeds cloud migrations, simplifies integrations during M&As, and enables hybrid working by employees. Security services are delivered from a single cloud platform that can follow user-to-app connections regardless of location or device. This reduces risks by eliminating gaps between products and removing the need for manual updating of traditional legacy appliances. Zero trust access. SSE systems are designed to allow the least-privileged user access. This is based on an zero trust policy that includes device, application, and content. This will prevent lateral movement as well as protect applications from being detected, thus reducing the attack area. SSE combines unified Threat Prevention capabilities with CASB & ZTNA Technologies to enforce policies on end users no matter what device or location they may be in. This reduces the risk of ransomware, insider threats and other threats when employees access sensitive data or use cloud apps that do not comply with corporate policies. Data Security Organizations need to safeguard information as remote and mobile users access applications and data via the internet. Secure service-edge delivers security using web gateway (SWG), zero-trust network (ZTNA), and cloud access security broker technologies. SSE provides centralized cloud data protection (DLP), allowing sensitive data be quickly found, classified, then secured in an unified manner. This can assist in supporting compliance policies such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, or GDPR. SSE must have advanced threat protection capabilities. Examples include cloud firewalls, CASB inspections in SaaS-based apps, and adaptive accessibility control. SSE is built around adaptive access, which detects changes in the device's posture and adjusts its access. Monitoring When working with a secure service edge, it's important to monitor internet sessions. This allows you to see how your network is performing and what apps are being used. Monitoring can help you spot potential problems before they happen and keep your business protected from threats. This can help improve your user's experience and reduce cost. SSE platform that can inspect web- and data-traffic on a globally scale is crucial. Vendors should have strong service-level agreement (SLAs), and experience evaluating inline traffic at major multinationals. One of the most common uses for a Security Service Edge is to enforce control policies on mobile, cloud and internet access. For example, this can include enforcing policies on corporate internet access and compliance through content blockage and malware isolation.
