Welcome to the
SASE Assessment

Are you ready for the new era of network security in the cloud? Gartner is predicting
that a Secure Access Service Edge architecture is the future for your network
security – and it’s likely that you are already using some of its components and
principles. Take our quick assessment to discover where you stand on your SASE
journey and gain a roadmap laying out your next steps.

Securing web access

A full inline proxy is at the heart of the SASE architecture.

Tell us about your current web security

It’s an appliance located
in our data centre (and/
or branch offices)

We have a cloud-
based web proxy
that inspects all
our web traffic

Securing web access

A full inline proxy is at the heart of the SASE architecture.

Tell us about your current web security

We are decrypting SSL/
TLS traffic to allow
inspection of HTTPS

We don’t have a way
to inspect the content
of HTTPS

Working remotely

A SASE architecture provides secure connectivity to private apps and services for remote workers.

Tell us about your current remote access

VPN concentrators in
our data center(s)
enable remote access

We don’t use VPN
concentrators. We’re
using a Zero Trust
access solution for
remote working

Managing the use of cloud

SASE enables digital transformation and the adoption of cloud is a key part of that transformation.

Tell us how you manage cloud applications

We are in complete
control of cloud
usage including the
unmanaged apps
(aka Shadow IT)

We know or suspect that
there’s Shadow IT being
used but don’t have good
visibility of the problem

Managing the use of cloud

SASE enables digital transformation and the adoption of cloud is a key part of that transformation.

Tell us how you manage cloud applications

Access to our cloud
applications (like Microsoft
365) is only allowed
from corporate devices
in order to protect our
sensitive data

We allow access to our cloud
applications (such as Microsoft
365) from unmanaged
endpoints including personal
or BYOD devices

Protección de datos

SASE is an architecture but also defines critical capabilities such Data Leakage Protection (DLP).

Tell us how you are protecting data

We don’t have a DLP
solution, or our DLP efforts
are focused on the
endpoint or email rather
than the Internet gateway

Our current Internet
gateway solution
inspects content
and blocks sensitive
data movement

Protección de datos

SASE is an architecture but also defines critical capabilities such Data Leakage Protection (DLP).

Tell us how you are protecting data

We do not allow the external
sharing of files from within our
managed cloud storage
applications (e.g. Google Drive,
Microsoft OneDrive, Box)

We allow external sharing
of files from within our
managed cloud storage
applications and worry
about sensitive data
being shared more widely
than necessary

Protección contra Amenazas

Advanced threat protection solutions are expected from SASE vendors, if content the user is handling represents risk then adaptive actions should be taken.

Tell us about your current threat protection

Our existing Internet
gateway inspects all
web and cloud traffic
for malware

We are depending on our
endpoint protection solution
rather than our Internet
gateway for protection

Eco-system integration

A SASE architecture forms part of a wider modern security architecture. Integration with other IT security tools will be key.

Tell us if you use one of these key integrations

We have simplified use
of cloud with a Single
Sign-On (SSO) solution
for identity and access
management

Our end users have to
remember various different
credentials to access our
cloud applications

Network transformation

A SASE architecture puts the user and your data at the centre - no more hub and spoke networking based around the data centre.

Tell us about your current network

Our home workers and
branch offices go
directly to the internet -
without backhauling to
our data centre(s)

Our home workers
and branch offices
mostly access the
Internet through our
data center(s)
