Legacy SD-WAN solutions are blind to tens of thousands of cloud apps and lack distributed cloud on-ramp service, resulting in poor user experience. Appliance-based SD-WAN does not scale for remote users.
Disjointed and standalone point products like on-premises IPS, NGFW, IoT security, or cloud security services like CASB, SWG, and others increase cost and complexity and create inconsistent security between branch and remote users.
Legacy solutions fail to automate laborious tasks, burdening teams with management inefficiencies. Current monitoring tools lack hop-by-hop WAN insights or require additional appliances, hindering digital experience management.
Netskope One SASE Branch, our comprehensive Secure SD-WAN offering, integrates a SASE fabric, hybrid security, and a unified orchestrator into a holistic solution, ushering in a fully modernized branch experience for the borderless enterprise.
The three key pillars of the Netskope One SASE Branch provide:

Netskope One SASE Branch integrates SASE fabric, hybrid security, and a unified orchestrator into a comprehensive Secure SD-WAN offering, ushering in a fully modernized branch experience for the borderless enterprise.
It is a unified Secure SD-WAN solution that integrates networking, hybrid security, and a single orchestrator into one platform. It is designed to replace the fragmented “stack” of legacy SD-WAN routers, on-premises firewalls, and separate cloud security services, providing a single AI-powered architecture for all branch and remote locations.
Netskope One Orchestrator provides a single console to manage SD-WAN, SSE, and digital experience. It features zero-touch provisioning, allowing new branches or micro-offices to go live in minutes just by plugging in a Netskope One Gateway. This eliminates the need for specialized on-site technicians and ensures that security policies are consistent across every site automatically.
Most SD-WANs struggle with cloud-native apps. Netskope uses the Cloud Confidence Index (CCI) to recognize and prioritize over 85,000+ SaaS applications. By routing traffic through the global NewEdge network and using smart defaults to prioritize critical apps (like Zoom or Teams), it eliminates the latency and performance drops common in legacy backhauled networks.
Yes. The solution includes AI-driven Device Intelligence that automatically discovers and classifies millions of IoT/OT devices the moment they connect. It assigns these devices risk-based access controls within the SASE fabric, preventing them from becoming an unmonitored entry point for attackers—without requiring additional security hardware.
Industry data from Gartner shows a massive shift toward consolidation, with 70% of SD-WAN purchases expected to be part of a single-vendor SASE platform by 2028. By consolidating your firewall, SD-WAN, and security services into one product, you eliminate “vendor finger-pointing,” reduce hardware costs, and cut the operational overhead of managing multiple disconnected management consoles.
