Cato Networks, the provider of the world’s first SASE platform, last week announced a partnership with KDDI to deliver Cato SASE services across North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific.
The agreement demonstrates how Communication Service Providers (CSPs) like KDDI can leverage cloud-delivered SASE to quickly meet enterprise requirements for pervasive security and optimized access from the branch, the road, and the office to any application.
With enterprises moving data to the cloud and users working from anywhere, CSPs need to offer IT and security leaders pervasive secure access solutions without compromising the user experience.
Cato’s global SASE platform addresses this need for CSPs, converging access and network security into a global cloud-native service. With a single converged offering, CSPs can offer enterprise customers a secure access solution without the operational overhead of integrating and managing multiple third-party appliances and Virtual Network Functions (VNFs).
Shlomo Kramer, CEO and co-founder of Cato Networks
With the Cato Cloud SASE platform, CSPs can provide their customers secure access to corporate resources worldwide without compromising on performance, visibility, and control.
Toru Maruta, Executive Officer and Head of Product Management in the solution business sector of KDDI
KDDI is very happy to have this partnership with Cato and excited to be able to provide such secure network features to our enterprise customers.
