Check Point® Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: CHKP), a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, today released new insights into the growing adoption of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) — the cloud-delivered architecture converging networking and security into one unified platform.
With the workplace no longer defined by office walls, IT and security teams are under pressure to protect users, devices, and data far beyond the traditional perimeter.
“In 2025, SASE has become a strategic imperative for enterprises navigating hybrid work, cloud-first strategies, and evolving compliance demands,” Rudi van Rooyen, Security Engineer, Check Point Software Technologies.
What’s driving SASE adoption?
- Hybrid workforce: Nearly half of knowledge workers are hybrid or remote, requiring secure, seamless access from anywhere.
- Cloud-first everything: Public cloud spending is up 21.5% in 2025, with SaaS now critical to daily business operations.
- Beyond the perimeter: Security must follow users and data — not fixed firewalls. Zero Trust at scale is now essential.
- Consolidation: Enterprises are replacing dozens of point solutions with unified, single-vendor SASE platforms (21% YoY growth).
- Regulatory pressure: GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, and NIS2 are driving stronger access controls, encryption, and compliance visibility.
According to Cybersecurity Insiders’ 2025 Secure Network Access Report:
- 32% of organisations have already implemented SASE
- 31% are currently evaluating solutions
- 24% plan to begin deployment within 12 months
“Enterprises face unprecedented complexity — hybrid users, dispersed data, and tightening regulations,” said van Rooyen.
“SASE delivers simplicity, scale, and prevention-first protection. It’s no longer optional — it’s the foundation for resilient digital operations in 2025.”
Check Point SASE enables organisations to unify networking and security, adopt Zero Trust at scale, and accelerate secure digital transformation across hybrid and cloud-first environments.
