In July, we announced the general availability of the Microsoft Entra Suite and Microsoft’s Security Service Edge (SSE) solution which includes Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access.
Microsoft’s SSE solution aims to revolutionize the way organizations secure access to any cloud or on-premises applications. It unifies identity and network access through Conditional Access, the Zero Trust policy engine, helping to eliminate security loopholes and bolster your organization’s security stance against threats. Delivered from one of the largest global private networks, the solution ensures a fast and consistent hybrid work experience. With flexible deployment options across other SSE and networking solutions, you can choose to route specific traffic profiles through Microsoft’s SSE solution.
According to Omdia, a leading research and consulting firm, Microsoft’s entry into the SASE/SSE space is poised to disrupt the market. Omdia highlights that Microsoft’s focus is on an identity-centric SASE framework, which helps consolidate technologies from different vendors by extending identity controls to your network and enhancing team collaboration. A key strength for Microsoft, according to Omdia, is its ability to introduce Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access seamlessly into existing identity management conversations—a strength that could lead to broader adoption of network access services as part of the same platform.
As you navigate the complexities of securing network access, Microsoft’s Security Service Edge solution helps you transform your security posture and improve user experience. It simplifies collaboration between identity and network security teams by consolidating access policies across identities, endpoints and network, all managed in a single portal - the Microsoft Entra admin center. Microsoft’s SSE solution provides a new pathway to implement zero trust access controls more effectively, enabling your organization to enhance its security posture while leveraging existing Microsoft investments.
