To secure remote employees, organizations have to find a way of securing hybrid environments where employees can access data and applications. You can do this by using a service edge. SSE, a cloud-native platform that integrates security and networking into one platform, is a cloud architecture. This allows security to be covered across SaaS cloud applications, private applications and cloud services from a single policy. Access Control Secure Service Edge (SSE) solutions are essential as more employees, partners, and customers access content, data and applications via the internet and mobile devices. SSE provides protection against malicious or unauthorized access. SSE also allows secure access to cloud, web and private applications. SSE is a platform that integrates network and security functions. It includes SD-WAN, firewalls as a service (FaaS), secure web gateways, cloud access security brokers (CASB), zero trust network accesses (ZTNA), etc. It provides consistent application and security enforcement for users and locations while providing centralized visibility of traffic. SSE uses a zero trust system for access control. It is based solely on user identities and does not place users in the corporate network. This provides fast and reliable WAN connection without the requirement for a VPN. In addition, a robust defense-in-depth strategy for detecting and preventing malware and other threats is an important part of SSE. Threat Protection SSE offers protection against threats for internet sessions. It ensures users securely connect to critical applications regardless of where they are. This enables hybrid-work for employees, secures data and cloud connectivity, accelerates migrations to the cloud, and simplifies M&A integration. Security services are delivered from a single cloud platform that can follow user-to-app connections regardless of location or device. It reduces risk because it eliminates gaps in point products, and also removes the need to update legacy appliances manually. Zero-trust access: SSE systems must allow the least privilege access, based upon a policy of zero trust, encompassing user role, behavior, device, content, and application. This minimizes the attack surface and prevents lateral moves. SSE enforces corporate policies for all users regardless of their location in the network, or device they use. This helps reduce the risk that insiders, ransomwares and other types of threats can be posed by employees who connect to sensitive information or use cloud-based applications that aren't compliant with corporate security policies. Data Security Organisations must protect information when remote users and mobile devices connect to data and applications over the Internet. Secure service-edge delivers security using web gateway (SWG), zero-trust network (ZTNA), and cloud access security broker technologies. SSE provides centralized cloud data protection (DLP), allowing sensitive data be quickly found, classified, then secured in an unified manner. This can support compliance policies such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard and GDPR. SSE must have advanced threat protection capabilities. Examples include cloud firewalls, CASB inspections in SaaS-based apps, and adaptive accessibility control. SSE solutions must include adaptive access control, which identifies and adjusts access based on changes in device posture. Monitoring Monitoring internet sessions is important when using a secure service. This will allow you to monitor how your network is working and which applications are being used. Monitoring can help to protect your business by spotting potential problems in advance and preventing them from happening. This can also help you improve your user experience and reduce costs. SSE platform that can inspect web- and data-traffic on a globally scale is crucial. Be sure that the vendor has a strong service level agreement (SLA) and an extensive track record in evaluating traffic for large multinational companies. A security service edge can be used to enforce policy control on internet, cloud and mobile access. It can be used to enforce corporate internet policies and access controls for compliance, or mitigate risk by blocking content and isolating malware.
