How does FortiSASE enhance security for branch offices?

FortiSASE enhances security for branch offices by providing a centralized management solution that reduces complexity and improves security oversight. This centralized approach allows for consistent application of security policies across all branch locations, making it easier for administrators to manage security settings and monitor threats. By streamlining security management, FortiSASE enables organizations to respond more efficiently to potential security incidents and maintain a robust security posture across diverse and distributed environments.

In contrast, relying on outdated security protocols would hinder rather than enhance security, as they may not be effective against current threats. Requiring additional hardware installations can complicate deployments rather than simplify them, often leading to increased costs and management overhead. Focusing solely on endpoint security limits the scope of protection, as branches need comprehensive security solutions that address network, application, and data security, not just endpoints.
