SASE can be broken down into six essential elements.
Facilitate expansion
Leverage the expertise of seasoned cyber security experts in Australia to detect and handle potential risks to your business. Our recommendations are grounded in the context of Australian business and society, reflecting the reality of our local communities.
Firewall as a service moves firewall protection to the cloud instead of the traditional network perimeter. This enables organizations to securely connect a remote, mobile workforce to the corporate network, while still enforcing consistent security policies that reach beyond the organization’s geographic footprint.
A secure web gateway is a web security service that filters unauthorized traffic from accessing a particular network. The goal of a SWG is to zero in on threats before they penetrate a virtual perimeter. A SWG accomplishes this by combining technologies like malicious code detection, malware elimination, and URL filtering.
Zero Trust Network Access is a set of consolidated, cloud-based technologies that operates on a framework in which trust is never implicit and access is granted on a need-to-know, least-privileged basis across all users, devices, and applications. In this model, all users must be authenticated, authorized, and continuously validated before being granted access to company private applications and data. ZTNA eliminates the poor user experience, operational complexities, costs, and risk of a traditional VPN.
A cloud access security broker is a SaaS application that acts as a security checkpoint between on-premises networks and cloud-based applications and enforces data security policies. A CASB protects corporate data through a combination of prevention, monitoring, and mitigation techniques. It can also identify malicious behavior and warn administrators about compliance violations.
A modern SASE platform allows IT administrators to manage SD-WAN, SWG, CASB, FWaaS, and ZTNA through centralized and unified management across networking and security. This frees IT team members to focus their energy in other more pressing areas and boosts the user experience for the organization’s hybrid workforce.

Unlock Secure Internet Gateways with CISO Online’s and Microsoft Secure Global Access to Safe and Seamless Online Access
Prioritise the security of your online experience with Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access comprise Microsoft’s Security Service Edge (SSE) solution.
Global Secure Access is the unifying term used for both Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access. Global Secure Access is the unified location in the Microsoft Entra admin center. Global Secure Access is built upon the core principles of Zero Trust to use least privilege, verify explicitly, and assume breach.
Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access – coupled with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, our SaaS-security focused Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) – are uniquely built as a solution that
converges network, identity, and endpoint access controls so you can secure access to any app or resource, from anywhere. With the addition of these Global Secure Access products, Microsoft Entra ID simplifies access policy management and enables access orchestration for employees, business partners, and digital workloads. You can continuously monitor and adjust user access in real time if permissions or risk level changes.
The Global Secure Access features streamline the roll-out and management of the access control capabilities with a unified portal. These features are delivered from Microsoft’s Wide Area Network, spanning 140+ regions and 190+ network edge locations.

Secure access service edge (abbreviated SASE) is a cloud-based security architecture that converges software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) with a consolidated cloud-delivered security stack that features SWG, CASB, ZTNA, and FWaaS.
SASE architecture is a leading architectural model, powered by a global scalable network, that boosts hybrid workforce productivity and reduces complexity in today’s distributed enterprise environments.
SASE differs from traditional network security approaches in the way it inspects and connects users, endpoints, and remote networks to apps and resources. Where traditional enterprise network security options backhaul traffic to private networks and corporate data centers through secure web gateways and firewalls, SASE provides a global, consistent presence at the point of access. This model eliminates the poor user experience, operational complexities, costs, and risk of traditional security models, reduces the enterprise attack surface, and enhances IT agility.
SASE solutions are made up of six essential elements, which provide a wide range of capabilities:
When properly implemented, SASE allows organisations to ensure secure access no matter where their users, devices, or applications are located. Additionally, SASE offers:
4. Agile, scalable network edge, which accelerates digital transformation and IoT adoption and enables the modern hybrid workforce with better productivity and reduce complexity across the organisation.
Microsoft Global Secure Access is a cloud-based security solution designed to provide secure and scalable access to corporate resources, regardless of the location or device of the user. It helps protect against cyber threats and ensures compliance with security policies.
