Combining the best of CloudSWG, ZTNA, Web Isolation and CASB

Why Symantec SSE?

Symantec takes network security to the next level by including several advanced SSE capabilities, including an advanced cloud-delivered SWG, innovative ZTNA technology that enables secure access to private applications from any managed or unmanaged device, eliminating the need for a VPN. Users are also protected from threats with Full Browser Isolation, Advanced Cloud Sandboxing, Cloud Firewall Service and Deep Content Inspection. That’s not all, it also includes core CASB functionality to discover and control Shadow IT in your organization with deep visibility across thousands of apps and the ability to deny access to cloud applications not allowed in your organisation.

Use Cases of Symantec SSE

Key Use Cases

Manage unsafe browser activity to mitigate risk

Filter out unsafe content from web traffic using policies to reduce risk and maintain compliance. The Global Intelligence Network classifies sites and URLs, giving companies the ability to establish risk thresholds and block harmful content. Policies are centrally managed and consitently applied to users and groups, regardless of their access point, whether its cloud or on-premises.

A better way to secure application access with Symantec ZTNA

Symantec ZTNA provides a powerful alternative to VPNs, transforming how organizations grant application access. Unlike VPNs, which can allow access to the entire network once credentials are verified, ZTNA adheres to a stricter "least privilege" principle. Users are granted access only to the specific applications they need, based on their identity and predefined access policies. This approach minimizes the attack surface and reduces potential damage in the event of a breach.

Symantec ZTNA Takes Leadership Position

Stay ahead of the curve with Symantec's latest achievement. KuppingerCole has recognized Broadcom as an Overall Leader in its Zero Trust Network Access Leadership Compass. With strengths including a global partner ecosystem, diverse authentication methods, seamless deployment, and robust data compliance measures, Symantec Zero Trust Network Access stands out.

Secure and isolate your employees' risky web traffic to eliminate threats

Symantec Web Isolation executes web sessions away from endpoints, sending only a safe rendering of information to users’ browsers thereby preventing any website-delivered zero-day malware from reaching your devices. When combined with Symantec Secure Web Gateways, policies drive traffic from uncategorized sites or URLs with suspicious or potentially unsafe risk profiles through Isolation for safe browsing. By integrating with Symantec messaging solutions, Web Isolation isolates links in email to prevent phishing threats and credential attacks.
