High Performance Traffic Visibility for Cloud Security and SSE

Gartner’s Security Service Edge (SSE) concept offers a highly-scalable and convenient model for providing users everywhere with safe access to the Internet, Web, XaaS services, and private apps. SSE uses edge clouds to deliver security services via three primary components:

A Secure Web Gateway (SWG) for managed device access to the Internet, Web and non-Corporate SaaS,
A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) for access by managed and unmanaged devices to SaaS and cloud apps, and
A Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) framework for secure access to private apps and data assets (on premise or in the cloud) by managed and unmanaged devices.

Each of these core functions requires detailed visibility into global network traffic for each enterprise customer. This visibility, provided by next-generation Deep Packet Inspection (NG DPI), includes accurate identification of applications and services in both encrypted and clear flows, and granular insights into evasive and anomalous traffic to support threat detection. An accurate detailed view of traffic is also essential to all other SSE components, such as Data Loss Prevention (DLP), a Next Generation Cloud Firewall (NG CFW), a Web Application Firewall (WAF), and an Intrusion Detection/Prevention System (IDS/IPS), and Extended Threat Detection and Response (XDR).

Enea Qosmos NG DPI Engine Benefits for Security Service Edge (SSE) Core Functions:

ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access)

Detect subtle authentication red flags
Safely and instantly breakout trustworthy traffic
Achieve fine-grained micro-segmentation
Rapidly detect and respond to sophisticated breaches of trust

SWG (Secure Web Gateways)

Develop granular policies based on actions within specific applications
Improve reactivity by detecting potential threats from the first packet in a flow
Protect privacy by using encrypted traffic classification to reduce the need for decryption
Gain efficiency by meeting the inspection needs of multiple SWG functions with a single NG DPI instance

CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker)

Enhance CASB with shadow IT discovery
Create more accurate – and more compact – audit trails
Create accurate behavioral profiles for effective anomaly detection
Boost performance for high-volume, multi-tenant deployments without sacrificing granular visibility
