SASE merges the network optimization capabilities of SD-WAN with a full security stack, including Next Generation Firewall (NGFW), Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), and more. MPLS improves the performance and reliability of traffic flows, yet remains an expensive, rigid solution with limited capacity.

Traditional hub-and-spoke networking has enterprises backhauling WAN traffic from branches over MPLS circuits to a central site and applying security policies before sending the traffic to the cloud or the public Internet. SD-WAN has emerged as a popular alternative to MPLS.

At the edge of this network, customers can connect their branch locations, corporate data centers, mobile and remote users to the core network via their preferred carrier services (MPLS, broadband, LTE, etc.) This need to send traffic directly into the cloud requires the core WAN backbone based on the hubs to become the new corporate LAN.

SD-WAN isn’t built to improve security, but instead address the rigidity, capacity constraints, and high costs of MPLS. Software and cloud must form the core of the network We live in a world of appliances routers, SD-WAN, WAN optimization, and next-generation firewalls to name a few. They had the vision and the track record.
