IT infrastructure and network leaders in Southeast Asia as they navigate the complexities of secure connectivity in a rapidly changing landscape.
“Across Asia, enterprises are fast-tracking their digital transformation while navigating the complexities of AI adoption and hybrid work,” says Nitin Ahuja, vice president and general manager for APAC at Aryaka.
In response, Aryaka has unveiled its Unified SASE as a Service 2.0, an advanced platform designed to meet the evolving demands of the hybrid workforce and the increasing integration of AI technologies. This release is particularly relevant for
This new platform incorporates several features, including Universal Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and AI>Secure, aimed at enhancing security and performance for users accessing applications remotely.
As remote work continues to grow in importance, the need for secure, high-performance networking has intensified. Research from AvidThink suggests that 35% of companies have already converged their networking and security functions, with nearly 60% planning to do so within the next 12 to 18 months.
This trend highlights the critical role of integrated solutions like Aryaka's, especially for businesses looking to harness AI-driven growth while maintaining robust security measures.
The introduction of AI>Secure is particularly timely, as nearly 70% of IT leaders report facing security challenges related to the scaling of AI workloads.
With this feature, Aryaka aims to protect enterprises from risks such as unapproved AI usage and knowledge leakage. AI>Secure safeguards access to both public and internal AI applications, utilising advanced techniques to block potential vulnerabilities while ensuring compliance in a constantly evolving threat landscape.
Another significant enhancement is the Universal ZTNA, which enables secure access to applications from any location. This capability addresses the shortcomings of traditional VPN solutions, which often lead to inconsistent access policies and performance issues.
By implementing a Zero Trust approach, organizations can better protect themselves from lateral movement and unauthorised access, critical concerns for today’s complex network environments.
Aryaka's SASE solution aims to simplify operational processes by providing centralised management tools that enhance visibility and policy enforcement. The improved My Aryaka interface gives users immediate access to essential network and security information, aiding in quick decision-making and operational efficiency.
As businesses in Southeast Asia look to reinforce their security posture while adapting to a hybrid work model, Aryaka's Unified SASE as a Service 2.0 presents a robust framework. With its focus on both network performance and security integrity, this offering positions enterprises to thrive in the midst of ongoing digital transformation.
