Hybrid-work, zero-trust, and cloud-adoption is the name of the game. SD-WAN alone won’t solve for these. By 2027, 65% of SD-WAN purchases will be part of a single-vendor SASE offering, which is an increase from 20% in 2024. It’s clear – the shift to SASE is breaking down the silos between networking and security, creating unified, scalable solutions.
The Gartner® 2025 Strategic Roadmap for Enterprise Networking report recommends to include SASE offerings on the shortlist when making SD-WAN, SWG, NGFW, ZTNA, and CASB investment decisions. Why? Because SASE is becoming the standard deployment model to connect users, devices, locations, and applications securely.
