Introduction to Microsoft’s Security Service Edge for Identity-Centric Network Access

Provide secure access to all apps and resources from anywhere. The adoption of cloud workloads combined with an increasingly mobile workforce has put a strain on traditional corporate networks and network security models. Threat actors continue to adapt to the new paradigm, finding the gaps between security solutions. Employees also must contend with delays due to a complicated array of endpoint security measures that make accessing resources a headache. This creates a poor user experience, leading to increased risk as users find ways to circumvent the traditional controls. Microsoft’s networking model brings together two new products, Microsoft Entra Internet Access and Microsoft Entra Private Access, along with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, in the Security Service Edge (SSE) solution. It enables unified Conditional Access policies by taking into account attributes from identities, devices, apps, and network conditions. Organizations can greatly streamline network access security without compromising the end-user experience. In this webinar, Principal Architect Frank Urena provides an overview of how Microsoft's new identity-centric Security Service Edge (SSE) can address the threats and risks associated with cloud adoption and a mobile workforce while integrating seamlessly into your existing identity-driven security control plane.
