Streamline Network and Security Operations with AI-Powered SASE

Automating Grunt Work to Regain Business Focus and Reduce Risk

The ongoing maintenance, troubleshooting, incident analysis, and infrastructure optimization for resiliency, performance and security posture pressures valuable and scarce IT resources. AI dynamically correlate logs, suppress redundant alerts, sustain optimal configurations and posture, and auto-remediate issues—all without requiring constant human input. Thus, AI help shifting staff focus from grunt work to business-focused activities.

Augmenting Analysts During High-Stakes Decision-Making

Real-world security operations demand fast, accurate decision-making during incidents. AI acts as an intelligent assistant by sifting through massive volumes of telemetry to identify root causes, assess potential impact, and suggest next actions. In incident response, this can mean the difference between containment and escalation.

Acting as a Strategic Advisor for Policy and Security Optimization

Organizations need continuous alignment between policy and real-world behavior. AI serves as a digital advisor—analyzing historical patterns, assessing risk trends, and recommending policy changes that align with security best practices and organizational intent. It can simulate the impact of changes before deployment, detect policy drift, and ensure that controls stay tightly mapped to both business needs and compliance frameworks.

Securing AI with SASE and… AI

Controlling Shadow AI

Users are embracing AI, both sanctioned and unsanctioned, to streamline their daily work. Discovering and controlling the risk associated with AI usage is important to limit enterprise exposure based on geography, compliance, privacy, and the use of end user interactions for AI training purposes. AI is deployed by SASE to analyze the attributes of thousands of AI services to automate the detection and classification of these applications at scale.

Controlling AI Data Sharing

Users often share data with AI services to customize AI generated for their specific context. Organizations need to control what data can be shared and with which AI services. Beyond traditional data loss prevention, AI models trained with customer specific sensitive data can detect high risk exchanges of information between users and public AI services. In addition, the nature of the interaction with the AI service can provide insights to possible threats or compliance violations.
