The Shift to NaaS: Where Connectivity and Security Converge

AvidThink’s founder and principal, Roy Chua, discusses enterprise challenges in wide area connectivity and security. To simplify operations, many turn to Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) leveraging secure access service edge (SASE) and security service edge (SSE). How does NaaS, reinforced by SASE and SSE, improve agility, reduce costs, and prioritize core business functions?
