Cato Networks, the leader in SASE, announced the expansion of the Cato SASE Cloud platform into threat detection and incident response with Cato XDR, the world’s first SASE-based, extended detection and response (XDR) solution. Available immediately, Cato XDR utilizes the functional and operational capabilities of the Cato SASE Cloud to overcome the protracted deployment times, limited data quality, and inadequate investigation and response experience too often associated with legacy XDR solutions.
Cato also introduced Cato EPP, the first SASE-managed endpoint protection platform (EPP/EDR). Together, Cato XDR and Cato EPP mark the first expansion beyond the original SASE scope pioneered by Cato in 2016 and defined by industry analysts in 2019. SASE’s security capabilities encompassed threat prevention and data protection in a common, easy-to-manage, and easy-to-adopt global platform. With today’s announcement, Cato is expanding SASE into threat detection, incident response, and endpoint protection without compromising on the architectural elegance captured by the original SASE definition.
“Cato SASE continues to be the antidote to security complexity,” says Shlomo Kramer, CEO and co-founder of Cato Networks. “Today, we extend our one-of-a-kind SASE platform beyond threat prevention and into threat detection and response. Only Cato and our simple, automated, and elegant platform can streamline security this way.”
An early adopter of Cato XDR is Redner’s Markets, an employee-owned supermarket chain headquartered in Reading, Pennsylvania, with 75 locations. Redner’s Markets’ vice president of IT and Infrastructure, Nick Hidalgo, said, “The Cato platform gave us better visibility, saved time on incident response, resolved application issues, and improved network performance ten-fold.” (Read more about Redner’s Markets and Cato in this blo ..
