SASE for Manufacturing

Digital transformation is driving the adoption of Industry 4.0 in manufacturing. Multiple technologies, such as internet of things (IoT) devices and artificial intelligence (AI), are changing manufacturing processes. For instance, more is being done with robotics, 3D printing, and industrial clouds. Employees need to digest all these innovations to enable new ways for them to do their jobs properly.

Around the globe, industries have implemented work-from-home policies. In most manufacturing companies, there is a mixture ofemployees from the business office to the factory floor, and manufacturers can now instantly enable remote work for these employees. By enabling remote access, you allow users to access and manage their applications, system interfaces, and files from anywhere at any time. Traditionally, organizations have used virtual private networks (VPN) for remote access. This setup has clear benefits, but it also has downsides.
