The secure access service edge (SASE) solution suits remote workers, IoT devices, branch offices and applications worldwide
International carrier Sparkle has launched SASE Connect to secure international corporate networks.
The operator points out securing always-available access corporate data has become more difficult due to remote working and the increasing migration of business applications to the cloud, whether hosted off- or on-premises.
SASE Connect is claimed to be a “suite of fully integrated security and network services that enables secure access to the international corporate network regardless of the physical location of the device and the connection used” taking a cloud-based approach.
The corporate network and devices are protected from threats at its sources of connection or edges rather than at its data center. This means remote workers, IoT devices, branch offices and applications are protected before their traffic reaches a multitude of destinations.
SASE Connect is designed to complement and round out Sparkle’s SD-WAN solution which was launched in 2021. It has been adopted by enterprises in food, manufacturing, fashion, energy and tourism to provide suites for the settlement and management of secure connectivity and a single point of contact.
SASE Connect relies on Sparkle’s global network for direct and high-speed connectivity to the cloud as well as its Security Operation Center (SOC) for the continuous monitoring of network traffic and the prevention, detection, analysis and response to cyber threats.
