Adoption of an expanding number of industrial internet of things ( IIoT ) devices and new robotics technologies , as well as the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and machine learning ( AI / ML ) capabilities are all driving major changes to manufacturing systems and processes
In terms of benefits , a realized zero trust approach via SASE can help manufacturers reduce risk , increase business agility , and lower costs across all four stages of organizational transformation :
■ Network transformation : SASE includes advanced networking and access control capabilities to secure direct-to-cloud access for manufacturers - providing a fast and reliable networking experience for any user , device , or location
■ Security transformation : SASE can help define explicit trust parameters for data and threat protection with the ability to inspect web , Software-as-a-Service ( SaaS ), and Infrastructure-as-a-Service ( IaaS ) traffic .
It can also validate the organization ’ s overall security posture
■ Application transformation : SASE can help manufacturing organizations establish contextual trust baselines for applications , users , devices , and systems to apply adaptive policy controls
■ Data transformation : SASE refines the trust posture for advanced data protection in-motion , in-use , and at-rest by using analytics to instantly detect suspicious data movement and behavioral anomalies among users . ■
