As employees use hybrid work environments to access applications and information, organizations must secure remote workers. You can do this by using a service edge. SSE provides security and network services in a single cloud-native platform. This enables continuous security coverage across cloud, SaaS and private applications from an unified policy framework. 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 protects users from malicious and unauthorized access. It also enables secure access for web, cloud and private applications and monitors the digital experience. SSE is a platform that integrates network and security functions. It includes SD-WAN, firewalls as a service (FaaS), secure web gateways, cloud access security brokers (CASB), zero trust network accesses (ZTNA), etc. It provides consistent application and security enforcement for users and locations while providing centralized visibility of traffic. SSE includes an identity-based zero trust access control system that never puts users on the corporate network. It ensures reliable and fast WAN connections, without the use of a VPN. SSE includes a strong defense-in-depth approach for detecting malware and other threats. Threat Protection SSE is a threat protection solution for internet sessions. Users can securely access critical business applications from anywhere. This enables hybrid work for employees, secures cloud and private data connectivity, accelerates cloud migrations and simplifies integration during M&As. Cloud-based security services can be delivered by a single platform, which follows user-to app connections irrespective of device and location. This eliminates gaps between point-products and the need to manually update 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 reduces the attack surface by preventing lateral movement, protecting applications from discovery and preventing lateral movements. Enforcing policy control: SSE combines unified threat prevention capabilities with CASB and ZTNA technologies to enforce corporate policies on all end users, regardless of where they are in the network or what devices they are using. This can help mitigate the risks of insider attacks, ransomware or other threats that may occur when employees use cloud applications not in compliance with corporate policy. Data Security The information of remote and portable users is important to organizations. Secure service-edge delivers security using web gateway (SWG), zero-trust network (ZTNA), and cloud access security broker technologies. SSE also offers centralized cloud data loss protection (DLP) capabilities, enabling sensitive data to be easily found, classified, and secured in a unified way. This can help to support compliance policy, such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard PCI DSS and GDPR. SSE solutions also need to have advanced threat-prevention capabilities. These include cloud firewall as a Service (FWaaS), CASB data inspection in SaaS applications, and adaptive control access. SSE solutions must include adaptive access control, which identifies and adjusts access based on changes in device posture. Monitoring Monitor internet sessions if you're working with secure service edges. This allows you to see how your network is performing and what apps are being used. Monitoring helps you to identify potential problems and protect your business from threats. This will also allow you to improve your customer experience and cut costs. SSE platform that can inspect web- and data-traffic on a globally scale is crucial. You should choose a vendor who has solid service-level agreements and is experienced in evaluating the traffic of major multinationals. One of the main use cases for security services edge is the enforcement of policy control over mobile, cloud, and internet access. This includes enforcing internet and access control policy for corporate compliance or mitigating risks through content blocking and malicious isolation.
