SASE Readiness Accelerator Assessment Guide

This guide outlines the SASE Readiness Accelerator, which is designed to assist organizations in evaluating their current state and planning for the adoption of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) technologies. The document details the increasing demand for SASE services as organizations prioritize agility, security, and business continuity. It describes the convergence of WAN Edge and network security into a unified cloud service model that includes SD-WAN, cloud firewall, and secure network access. The assessment consists of four key stages: initial scoping workshop, analysis of the current environment, definition of intended future state, and the delivery of an Accelerator Report. The report includes a gap analysis, options for future-state recommendations, and a roadmap for remediation activities. Additionally, the guide mentions related services such as the Security Posture Accelerator and Zero-Trust Readiness Accelerator, which may be of interest to customers seeking comprehensive assessments.
