Cato SASE can transform a company's data center-based network into a zero-trust network that is not tied to the location of work. Since 2017, Macnica has been providing implementation support, maintenance services, user support, and FAQ sites to domestic customers as a primary domestic distributor.

Post-COVID, corporate digital transformation is accelerating due to work style reforms and the shift to the cloud. Transformation of corporate networks is becoming essential to shift from traditional data center-based networks to zero trust networks that use cloud data centers. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge, announced as a framework by Gartner, Inc. in 2019) is a framework that is currently attracting attention as a network infrastructure for such digital transformation. Cato Networks' SASE is an all-in-one solution that reduces the burden on corporate personnel and provides an agile work environment.
