Cisco's Approach to SASE Cisco delivers core SASE capabilities, as well as additional functionality, through several key networking and security components. Cisco SD-WAN: Flexible cloud-managed networking Cisco's approach to SASE leverages a cloud-scale SD-WAN archi- tecture (see Figure 4-1) designed to meet the complex needs of modern WANs through three key areas: » Advanced application optimization that delivers a predictable application experience as the business application strategy evolves » Multilayered security that provides the flexibility to deploy the right security in the right place, either on-premises or cloud-delivered » Simplicity at enterprise scale, which enables end-to-end policy from the user to the application over thousands of sites FIGURE 4-1: Cisco SD-WAN cloud-scale architecture.
