Secure your Distributed Workspace with SASE – Secure Access Service Edge

Written by Lindsay Fowkes July 2022.  

What is SASE? 

SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) is the convergence of cloud networking and cloud security for simplicity, scalability, flexibility, and pervasive security. Combining networking security functions with WAN capabilities, SASE delivers secure, optimal and automated access to applications workloads in the cloud by extending software-defined networking and security to the doorstep of major IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) providers. Regardless of the location of users and applications SASE provides unified secure access from a single management platform.  

VMware SD-WAN – Introduction to Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a quick 15-minute lab. It demonstrates how VMware SASE can secure the employee environment internet traffic using the Cloud Web Security component. CWS (Cloud web security) comes with many capabilities and will also cover the URL Filtering capability. This lab will show how to configure URL filtering using VMware SASE Cloud Web Security feature.  

Lab Captains: Harley Stagner, Josh Green, Matt Wong, and David Wight.
