Cato Networks Named a Challenger in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Single-Vendor SASE
Recognition comes days after being identified as a Leader and the "poster child" of SASE by Forrester Research.
TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Cato Networks, provider of the world's leading single-vendor SASE platform, announced today that Gartner, Inc. has recognized the company as a Challenger in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Single-Vendor SASE.
"We are SASE. Four years before SASE was even defined, Cato was founded on the vision of converging networking and security into a single, global, cloud service," said Shlomo Kramer, co-founder and CEO of Cato Networks. "We have spent every moment since then building the Cato SASE Cloud, one platform that seamlessly and effortlessly connects and secures any user or location to any application, anywhere in the world, at any scale, with full resiliency. It's the fulfillment of a vision we call the 'Cato Experience.'"
This recognition comes after an incredible week for Cato. Cato saw recognition as the SASE "poster child" and "Leader" by Forrester Research in the Forrester Wave™: Zero Trust Edge Solutions, Q3 2023 Report. Zero Trust Edge (ZTE) is Forrester's name for SASE. Cato also announced that it was selected by Carlsberg, the world-famous brewer, for a massive global SASE deployment spanning 200+ locations and 25,000 remote users.
"Cato is so much simpler to deploy and use than competing solutions. We started referring to them as the Apple of networking," says Tal Arad, Vice President of Global Security & Technology at Carlsberg. Carlsberg joins Häfele, Vitesco, O-I Glass, and other global multinationals to adopt Cato SASE Cloud.

We've been very impressed with the continued development of their product, the quality of their service desk, and the assistance from our account team," writes one VP of Technology Infrastructure Services.
