Also Delivers New Product-Led Virtual Proof of Concept Offering to Enable Rapid Validation of Performance, Agility, Simplicity, and Security Value of Unified SASE as a Service

SANTA CLARA, CA – October 8, 2024 —Aryaka®, the leader in and first to deliver Unified SASE as a Service, today announced its Fall ’24 product update expanding its Aryaka Unified SASE as a Service offering. The update includes Aryaka’s new Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) and validated interoperability with Menlo Security, the pioneer in Secure Enterprise Browsers, Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) solution. The company has also launched the Aryaka Interactive Product Experience (IPX) virtual proof of concept capability.

The updates advance Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service solution, bringing added value to organizations looking to further consolidate their security and networking deployments. With these new capabilities, customers can protect their globally distributed applications without compromising performance or agility, marking a significant step forward in secure networking.

“As applications become more distributed and attack vectors get more sophisticated, organizations can no longer rely on a hodgepodge of point solutions to protect their networks. Enterprises are increasingly looking to Unified SASE as a result, but they’re finding that most solutions are stitched together via acquisitions and ‘unified’ in name only,” said Renuka Nadkarni, Chief Product Officer at Aryaka. “Aryaka Unified SASE as a Service provides an integrated security networking experience that delivers performance, agility, simplicity, and security. We meet customers wherever they are on their journey – whether they’re just beginning to modernize their networks or ready to move to a fully converged network and security environment.”

The expansion follows the company’s recent launch of Aryaka AI>Perform, a groundbreaking GenAI network acceleration solution delivered natively as part of Aryaka Unified SASE as a Service. These moves demonstrate Aryaka’s continuing commitment to grow its Unified SASE offering and meet the evolving needs of customers with a comprehensive set of services that are deployed based on the customer’s specific needs and place on their secure networking journey.

“Aryaka’s expansion of its Unified SASE as a Service offering comes as enterprises grapple with increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and the challenges of managing distributed workforces,” said Roy Chua, Founder at AvidThink. “By adding CASB and integrating RBI to its converged security and networking experience, Aryaka is addressing the limitations of piecemeal solutions.”

Aryaka’s Fully Integrated CASB Solution Streamlines Security Policy Enforcement

Aryaka has introduced its new CASB solution to its Unified SASE as a Service offering to provide comprehensive protection for SaaS applications through its unified, single-pass processing model. CASB is fully integrated into Aryaka’s OnePASS Architecture and Zero Trust WAN, creating a seamless cloud security experience for customers. The solution enables organizations to easily enforce security policies via Aryaka’s distributed data plane – on the edge device for on-site and branch users and at Points of Presence (PoPs) for remote users.

CASB’s key benefits include:

  • Comprehensive Visibility: Unlock a complete view of your cloud environment—from user activity and data access to potential risks— empowering you to make informed security decisions.
  • Granular Access Control: Enforce fine-grained access policies based on user identity, device, location, and other contextual factors, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive data and applications.
  • Innovative Threat Protection: Leverage cutting-edge threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to detect and prevent sophisticated attacks, such as malware, ransomware, and insider threats.

Aryaka CASB will be generally available as part of Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service offering in Q4 2024.

Menlo Security Partnership Adds Value to Customers Via Enhanced Web Security

Aryaka has partnered with Menlo Security to introduce comprehensive RBI capabilities into its Unified SASE as a Service offering, protecting remote and hybrid employees from internet-borne phishing and evasive malware, without compromising on browsing capabilities and efficiency. Menlo Security RBI isolates browsing activity from the network, ensuring users are always protected against browser-based threats. To implement these capabilities, Aryaka routes customer traffic directly from edge devices to the Menlo Secure Cloud Browser and over to Aryaka’s private core network.

This partnership reinforces Aryaka’s commitment to providing a comprehensive SASE framework that addresses evolving customer needs. By incorporating Menlo Security’s RBI, Aryaka empowers organizations to proactively defend against web-borne threats, enabling secure remote work, cloud adoption, and digital transformation initiatives.

“The challenges of distributed workforces, hybrid applications, and escalating cyber threats demand a new approach to network security,” said Pejman Roshan, Chief Marketing Officer at Menlo Security. “Our RBI capabilities seamlessly integrate into Aryaka’s Unified SASE platform, enabling organizations to confidently protect their users from even the most sophisticated threats, all while maintaining a productive browsing experience.”

Menlo RBI integration is available as part of Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service immediately.

Discover the Aryaka Unified SASE as a Service Difference with New Frictionless Interactive Product Experience (IPX)

In addition to the updates to Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service, the company has launched Aryaka IPX. Aryaka IPX provides easy-to-deploy virtual proof of concept where enterprises can experience the value, agility and capabilities of Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service. Users can test drive specific use cases in an intuitive, easy-to-use virtual setting without having to integrate with or disrupt their current network operations.

“Getting off the ground with a traditional proof-of-concept can be a long process that involves a lot of testing, experimentation, and learning,” said Justin Lim, VP of Customer Success at Aryaka. “Aryaka IPX expedites that process, allowing prospects to validate the technology at their own pace in a no-pressure, self-guided environment. Using this offering, enterprises can achieve rapid proof-of-value and see firsthand how they’ll benefit from Aryaka’s solutions.”
