Report: Improving Security Operations Through SASE and XDR

Discover how enterprises are navigating the complexities of an evolving cybersecurity landscape driven by rapid IT transformation. John Grady, an analyst with TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group, provides comprehensive insights that highlight the critical role of managed services and explore the benefits of SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) and XDR (Extended Detection and Response) frameworks. This research contrasts the transformative expectations enterprises have for these technologies with the realized benefits as organizations look for ways to enhance operational efficiency while fortifying their security posture to take on emerging threats.

Key focus areas:

  • Security Challenges and IT Transformation: The rapid pace of IT transformation introduces numerous cybersecurity challenges, including skills shortages and the proliferation of IoT and unmanaged devices.

  • Modernization with SASE and XDR: These frameworks consolidate security tools and processes, improving user protection and operational agility while addressing network edge transformation.

  • Role of Managed Services: Engaging with Managed Security Services Providers (MSSPs) helps fill skill gaps, reduce operational burdens, and align security efforts with strategic business objectives, ensuring faster and more effective security operations.
