2025 State of Secure Network Access Report
The 2025 State of Secure Network Report was created based on insights from over 400 IT leaders and cybersecurity professionals.
The report explores trends, challenges, and strategies that are shaping secure access today. While our findings show that over two-thirds of organizations are in the process of implementing or currently evaluating SASE, only 8% of organizations have fully implemented it so far. The findings highlight the urgency for scalable and integrated approaches to mitigate the risks of distributed workforces. The research uncovers how priorities such as secure remote access, enhanced cloud security, and simplified network management fuel interest in SASE and Security Service Edge (SSE) platforms.
Challenges in implementation—ranging from integration with legacy systems to a lack of in-house expertise—are analyzed alongside strategies for overcoming these hurdles. The report also underscores the critical role of managed service providers (MSSPs) in bridging skills gaps, accelerating deployments, and ensuring seamless transitions.
Packed with many relevant statistics and actionable insights, this report is an essential guide for IT decision-makers seeking to modernize their security postures while maintaining high-performing networks (high uptime and low latency).
