Conversational Geek Guide: SASE and Zero Trust

A Guide to Empowering and Securing the hybrid workforce with SASE and Zero Trust

When the world rushed to support a remote workforce, many organizations were literally digging up old VPN appliances from closets – they did whatever they had to, to keep the lights on.
