Exam SY0-601 topic 1 question 520 discussion

SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) is a comprehensive networking and security approach that combines wide-area networking (WAN) capabilities with security features. It provides secure access to applications and data, including encrypted tunnel access to the data center, while also offering monitoring capabilities for remote employee internet traffic. By implementing a SASE solution, the organization can reduce traffic on the VPN and internet circuit by routing traffic intelligently through the cloud, closer to the users. This approach helps optimize performance and security, addressing the scaling issues effectively.

Surely this can't be a real question from an exam right? "SASE" is not in the exam objectives, this is ridiculous

A. Deploying a SASE solution to remote employees

Personally Answer D answers the P1 issue of overloaded VPN servers today as it lets you scale to a bigger resource and allows to split users between vpn gateways. A would be longer term answer.

"The organization is looking for a software solution". Citing Palo Alto: "SASE is a cloud-native architecture".

Either SASE or SD-WAN seem to be equally correct. SASE is the framework while SD-WAN is the software solution. In reading through CompTIA documentation my vote would be SD-WAN, but who knows...

A SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) solution is a cloud-based security architecture that combines secure web gateway (SWG), cloud access security broker (CASB), and zero trust network access (ZTNA) into a single solution. SASE can help organizations to reduce traffic on their VPN and internet circuit by: Encrypting all traffic between remote employees and the data center, which can help to reduce bandwidth usage SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) solution to remote employees. SASE is a cloud-based security solution that combines VPN, SD-WAN, and other security features such as firewall, web filtering, and data loss prevention. By deploying SASE, remote employees can directly access the internet and cloud applications without routing all traffic through the VPN concentrator and internet circuit, reducing traffic and improving performance.

Building a load-balanced VPN solution with redundant internet. i believe they are more concern on the load. VPN by itself is already secure. i think they need a load balancer to accommodate users bandwidth!

D. Messer's exam notes (3.3): Remote access VPN • On-demand access from a remote device – Software connects to a VPN concentrator • Some software can be configured as always-on

Since SASE is not on the exam objectives, but SASE utilizes SD-WAN technology, would the answer not be SD-WAN?

I think it is A??? Even though SASE is NOT ON THE EXAM OBJECTIVES PDF FROM COMPTIA

Is Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) this concept in the Exam Objectives ??? Fu*k
