Netskope co-founder and CEO, Sanjay Beri, will kick off SASE Week with a keynote session titled, “Hybrid Work Needs A Better Network” that examines critical requirements for security and network technology in the era of hybrid work.
“Hybrid work is the new normal, and business success is now undeniably linked to an IT infrastructure that is built for modern, cloud-centric requirements,” said Sanjay Beri, co-founder and CEO of Netskope. “With employees demanding the freedom to work wherever they feel the most productive, we must enable them in ways that are reliable, performant, and secure, while also reducing cost, managing risk, protecting data, and increasing business agility.”
Following Sanjay Beri’s keynote address and opening remarks, SASE Week will deliver 15 sessions featuring some of the world’s foremost experts and thought leaders who will share insights, practical advice, and strategies stemming from their own experiences and best practices.
Some of the sessions highlighting each daily agenda include the following:
