Converged network & security

One policy for every user, every site and every cloud app.

Gartner's formula is simple: SASE = SD-WAN + SSE. In practice it means your branch routing and your security policy stop being two projects run by two teams with two sets of rules. Traffic from any office, laptop or phone reaches the nearest cloud point of presence, is checked against who the user is and what state their device is in, and is then sent on its way. We plan the migration, run the vendor selection, and operate it afterwards.

Plain English

Single-vendor or two vendors — the only decision that really matters.

Single-vendor SASE puts SD-WAN and the full security stack under one control plane. It is simpler to operate, easier to troubleshoot and usually cheaper per user — at the cost of concentrating a lot of your architecture with one supplier.

Dual-vendor SASE pairs best-of-breed SD-WAN with a separate SSE platform. It suits organisations that have already invested heavily in one leg and do not want to write it off, but you own the integration and the finger-pointing when something breaks between them.

There is no universally right answer. The right one falls out of three facts: what you already own and how long is left on it, how large your security team is, and how much of your traffic is destined for SaaS rather than your own datacentre. We put those on one page before anyone talks about product.

Sound familiar?

If two of these describe your month, this is the fix.

  • Networking and security are separate projects with conflicting rules, and every change needs both teams in a room.

  • Every branch has its own firewall to license, patch and eventually replace.

  • Remote users, branch users and cloud users each get a different security posture by accident rather than by design.

What we actually do

The work, step by step — not a feature list.

01

Current-state assessment first

Circuits, firewalls, VPN concentrators, licence end dates and renewal cliffs on a single timeline. SASE business cases live or die on which contracts expire when.

02

Vendor shortlist against your traffic, not the quadrant

We run a scored proof of concept with your own applications and users at two or three sites. Latency to Indian PoPs, ZTNA behaviour with your legacy apps, and admin usability count more than a feature matrix.

03

Phased rollout across quarters

Typically: SD-WAN overlay, then internet breakout with SWG, then ZTNA for remote access, then DLP and CASB. Each phase delivers something usable on its own, so the programme survives a budget review.

04

Run it, or hand it over

Our NOC and SOC can operate the platform day to day with your existing team retaining approval rights, or we can build it, document it and train your engineers to take it over. Both are priced openly.

What you receive

Deliverables you can hold us to.

  • Current-state architecture and contract expiry timeline
  • Scored proof-of-concept report across shortlisted platforms
  • Target architecture with per-phase migration plan and rollback points
  • Unified policy set covering branch, remote and mobile users
  • Operational runbooks, training and a monthly service review

We design to what your business needs, then price at least two ways of getting there. You see the commercials for each option side by side before anyone signs anything — including the option where you keep what you already own.

How we start

From first call to live in four steps.

  1. 01

    A 45-minute conversation

    What you run, what worries you, and what a bad week has already cost you. No slides and no product pitch — we are working out whether we can genuinely help.

  2. 02

    Posture assessment

    We examine the estate, compare it against a recognised framework and hand you a prioritised list of gaps. The report is yours to keep whether or not you buy anything.

  3. 03

    Onboarding and a rehearsal

    Log sources, agents, access and escalation contacts are agreed, then we run a live drill of a real incident before we call the service live. Untested escalation paths are decoration.

  4. 04

    Steady-state operations

    Monitoring, response and reporting run to a written SLA, with a quarterly review that changes the plan whenever your business changes.
