Cato Networks Named a Leader and an Outperformer in the GigaOm 2026 SASE Radar

Cato Networks has been positioned as a Leader and Outperformer in the 2026 GigaOm Radar for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE).

For the third consecutive year, GigaOm has recognized Cato’s platform maturity, innovation velocity, and breadth of integrated capabilities.

In this year’s report, GigaOm notes that the SASE market has entered a consolidation phase, with enterprises increasingly favoring unified platforms from single vendors over fragmented multivendor architectures. The report highlights that “stitched together” approaches introduce integration complexity and visibility gaps that undermine the fundamental promise of SASE. Cato’s cloud-native SASE architecture directly aligns with this, Converging networking, security, and AI security into a single unified platform with centralized policy management.

GigaOm recognized Cato as a Leader and Outperformer, reflecting its consistent execution, innovation, and platform depth. Among the factors cited in the report:

• A biweekly release cadence delivering continuous innovation
• Integration of Aim Security for AI-native security capabilities
• An aggressive roadmap featuring enhanced capabilities

The report also highlighted advanced threat intelligence and analytics, native Digital Experience Monitoring (DEM), and predictive traffic steering as key strengths of the Cato platform.
