Organizations aim to optimize connectivity
to accommodate a growing number of remote and cloud-based
operations, ISG Provider Lens™ report says
The market for Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) network
solutions has experienced a significant upswing in the U.K., driven
by a shift toward more remote and hybrid work, according to a new
research report published today by Information Services Group (ISG)
(Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory
firm.
The 2024 ISG Provider Lens™ Network — Software Defined Solutions
and Services report for the U.K. finds the proliferation of unique
devices across widely distributed workforces has increased the
adoption of SASE and other cloud-based security solutions in the
U.K. According to the report, this growth trend is likely to
continue in the coming years, accelerated by the demand for
cybersecurity and digital transformation projects.
“Businesses in the U.K. increasingly require safe access to
applications from anywhere,” said Jon Harrod, partner, Network
Advisory Services, for ISG in the U.K. “Providers are responding by
organizing their offerings to satisfy the changing connectivity
requirements.”
Enterprise networking continues to expand as U.K. organizations
look to optimize connectivity for their growing cloud and remote
operations, the ISG report says. Because SASE rests on a framework
of SD-WAN, the need for managed SD-WAN remains high, with many
firms embracing fully managed or co-managed SD-WAN as a part of
their cloud migration and security strategies, the report says.
In general, the U.K. market is running ahead of the broader
European region in adopting SD-WAN, either as a standalone solution
or coupled with cloud managed network offerings or networking
solutions to access public or private clouds, the ISG report
says.
Either approach offers numerous potential benefits. An SD-WAN
architecture reduces recurring network costs, offers network-wide
control and visibility, and simplifies the technology with
zero-touch deployment and centralized management, the ISG report
says. The key benefit of an SD-WAN architecture is that it can
communicate with all network endpoints without the need for
external mechanisms or additional protocols, ISG says.
“Enterprises in the U.K. are adopting SD-WAN as part of a
comprehensive SASE solution, often as a fully managed SASE service
or from a managed services provider,” said Jan Erik Aase, partner
and global leader, ISG Provider Lens Research. “SASE represents the
point at which enterprise networking and security fully
converge.”
The report also examines the increasing development of edge
technologies, such as network edge, branch edge and remote
edge.

challenges facing enterprises in the U.K., including balancing
costs and security and bringing in-house skills up to speed, and
