Calgary Chapter - Mastering Cybersecurity & Network Challenges with SASE

Description

CIOs and CISOs face significant IT security challenges in managing complexity, risk, and limited resources. Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) converges network and security functions into a single, cloud-delivered service, addressing increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and regulatory demands while enabling seamless, autonomous management.

A cloud-native platform approach to SASE reduces vulnerabilities, delivers robust security, and provides 360-degree visibility to support business growth and compliance. Gain practical insights from real-world case studies to transform your IT strategy, optimize ROI, and mitigate risk.

This session will address critical concerns and answer key questions, including:

• How can I improve network performance and agility without compromising security?
• How can I build cyber resilience and manage risk?
• How can I optimize security investments and combat resource constraints?
