CSE Secure Private Access for Enterprises

What is CSE Secure Private Access?

Cloud Secure Edge (CSE) is SonicWall’s all-in-one solution designed to deliver secure and scalable access to applications and resources users need across hybrid, multi-cloud and SaaS applications for modern workforces. Whether connecting remotely or on-prem, Secure Private Access (SPA) leverages zero-trust principles to authenticate users and devices before granting access, ensuring minimal attack surfaces.

Why Now?

The changing network landscape is forcing enterprises to modernize their approach and adopt network and security solutions that work together to ensure secure, seamless and scalable remote access. Legacy network security approaches are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of today’s hybrid workforces. Furthermore, traditional SSL VPN solutions are complex to manage, vulnerable to cyber threats and often degrade performance as workforces become more distributed. These outdated networking architectures create gaps that expose businesses to increased risk and operational inefficiencies. Instead, by adopting a ZTNA solution like Secure Private Access, enterprises can deliver secure and reliable access to all their users anywhere and anytime. By continuously verifying that the user and the resource they’re trying to access are safe, your users can experience uninterrupted productivity and collaboration.

Benefits:

• Address VPN Security Gaps
  Reduce the attack surface and lateral movement caused by the limitations of legacy VPN solutions. Enable stronger and more granular security controls with zero-trust principles.
• Secure High-Risk Users (Third parties, BYOD, M&A
  Provide third parties simple, secure access to only the specific resources they need without over-provisioning. In addition, management of access is simple with groups and roles that can be pre-identified and applied as necessary from one central console.
• Deliver Superior User Experience
  Improve performance and reduce the latency of your users’ remote connectivity. Secure Private Access works transparently in the background with no user training required to successfully access applications.

Outcomes:

• Reduce Business Risk
  Minimize the risk of data breaches, ransomware and insider threats by continuously verifying users and device health according to your policies. This not only prevents attackers and unauthorized users from moving across your network – it also helps mitigate the damage if they do gain access.
• Improve Productivity
  Ensure users can access critical business applications securely and without disruption, driving efficient workflows.
• Lower Costs and Complexity
  Save on the costs of traditional VPN hardware maintenance. Reduce the complexity of traditional VPN policy configurations that are needed to expand and deploy as your organization grows. By using a solution that unifies networking and security, organizations can decrease the complexity that comes along with ensuring safe, reliable and fast remote connectivity.
