Leveraging pioneering SASE technology with Gartner’s 2024 Magic Quadrant™ Leader, Cato Networks
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is rapidly establishing itself as the solution of choice for the next generation of enterprise networks, where optimal control, visibility, and scalability are essential. In the first quarter of 2024 alone, the SASE market experienced a 23% surge, as more and more organisations began taking advantage of its capabilities.
It's not hard to see why. By bringing together the best of networking and security, SASE allows critical data and applications to be accessed from multiple, highly dispersed locations, without compromising the performance or integrity of corporate infrastructure. Cato Networks have already taken SASE's core concept to the next level, incorporating endpoint protection, extended detection and response (XDR), and the world's first AI-driven networking and security incident detection and response platform, for additional layers of security and resilience.
Exponential-e has long championed SASE as a foundational component of the next generation of global networking. That's why we utilise Cato Networks' industry-leading technologies as part of our own Managed SASE solution, combining its full range of capabilities and international availability with the experience and expertise of our own cyber security experts to enable an end-to-end approach to network security, optimised for the modern distributed workforce.
A recent report revealed that single-vendor solutions of this sort accounted for around 80% of SASE revenue throughout Q1 of 2024, while Gartner have predicted that by 2027, 65% of SD-WAN purchases will be part of single-vendor SASE solutions, compared to 20% at the time of writing.
Reflecting this ongoing shift, Cato Networks is now recognised as Gartner's Leader for Single-Vendor SASE in its 2024 Magic QuadrantTM. This represents a significant step in Cato Networks' ongoing work to establish SASE as key component of organisations' ongoing digital transformation journeys, positioning them as a clear leader and innovator in the field, and paving the way for further advancements in secure networking.
It is clear SASE is now very much a mature technology - one that is sure to continue establishing itself as a critical component of enterprise networks in the years ahead.
