IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Network Edge Security as a Service 2023 Vendor Assessment
This IDC MarketScape evaluates leading Network Edge Security as a Service (NESaaS) vendors and examines how converged cloud-delivered security platforms are replacing fragmented network security architectures. The report explains that modern NESaaS solutions combine Secure Web Gateway (SWG), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Firewall-as-a-Service, and additional capabilities such as DLP, sandboxing, remote browser isolation, and deception into a unified platform supporting Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) initiatives. IDC positions Zscaler as a Leader based on its mature cloud-native architecture, global Zero Trust Exchange, integrated threat prevention, data protection, digital experience monitoring, workload security, and broad Zero Trust portfolio.
