This is a common refrain from IT and security leaders. And it makes sense given many enterprises have 130+ security tools. This creates a challenge in managing and optimizing siloed systems, not to mention correlating them into a single risk rating.

Take these 6 steps for incremental implementation of a SASE strategy.

“By 2024, at least 40% of enterprises will have explicit strategies to adopt SASE, up from less than 1% at year-end 2018.”
