The shift to cloud computing, remote work, evolving work habits, and a more tech-savvy workforce has redefined how and where users access applications and critical resources. These changes are driving a transformation in enterprise networks to provide a consistent and secure user experience. This briefing will delve into the convergence of networking and security through Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and the security-focused capabilities of Security Service Edge (SSE), highlighting how your organization can prepare to leverage SASE or SSE to achieve secure, business-critical outcomes.

Over the past several years, significant shifts in traffic patterns and application strategies have created traditional network architecture challenges. New cloud and edge networks and application architectures are appearing as a result of accelerated migrations to the cloud. <br><br> How you capture traffic is impacted due to several factors: encryption requirements, growth in where applications and data live, more dynamic infrastructures and a rise in east-west traffic. Thus, increasing the challenge to ingest and analyze network traffic. <br><br> Finally, lines of business require greater visibility into the application and customer experience which traditional network monitoring typically does not allow. <br><br> This briefing is designed to explore best practices that enable teams to manage risk, identify performance issues and effectively mitigate future problems via network performance monitoring and observability.
