the course
Understand how networking and security converge in modern cloud architectures with this SASE training.
Network and security. One architecture.
This training gives you a practical understanding of SASE concepts, combining SD-WAN, CASB, Zero Trust and cloud-native security services.
Learn why traditional architectures based on MPLS, VPNs and point solutions no longer scale in cloud and distributed environments.
Focus on concepts, architecture and real-world trade-offs — not on specific vendors or tools.
This SASE training is designed for IT professionals who want to understand how modern network and security architectures work together.
This training is especially relevant if you:
• work as a solution architect, network engineer or security engineer
• are involved in cloud, infrastructure or platform decisions
• want to understand SASE, SD-WAN and cloud security concepts
• need a clear overview of modern networking and security architecture
This is a one-day training, also available as a self-paced e-learning with approximately 20 short videos of around 8 minutes each. Please note: this e-learning does not include subtitles.
Basic understanding of networking, cloud and IT infrastructure is recommended.
No prior experience with SASE, SD-WAN or advanced security frameworks is required.
If you are new to IT, we advise starting with our IT Fundamentals training.
Secure access. Anywhere. Anytime.
Course Agenda
1. Introduction to SASE
Understand the concept of SASE and why network and security are converging.
2. Traditional networking and its limitations
Learn why MPLS, VPNs and legacy architectures no longer meet modern requirements.
3. Evolution to SD-WAN
Understand how software-defined networking transforms WAN design and management.
4. Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)
Learn how CASB provides visibility, control and data security in cloud environments.
5. Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture
Explore how network and security services are delivered from the cloud.
6. Identity-driven security and Zero Trust
Understand how identity and context replace the traditional network perimeter.
7. Security services in SASE
Learn about SWG, FWaaS, CASB and other cloud-native security functions.
8. Policy-based access and traffic control
Understand how policies, context and application awareness drive access decisions.
9. Remote access and modern workplaces
Learn how SASE enables secure access for users, devices and locations anywhere.
10. Implementation challenges and trade-offs
Understand practical challenges, vendor considerations and architectural trade-offs.
Available through preferred suppliers and procurement channels.
