Broadcom Symantec SASE
Palo Alto, California, United States
What it is
Broadcom Symantec SASE provides security for network traffic, web use, and cloud applications through cloud and edge services. Cloud SWG inspects web traffic using a proxy, decrypts SSL/TLS connections, examines files, and provides a cloud firewall. ZTNA provides access to private applications in cloud environments and on-premises data centers; Broadcom describes it as a VPN replacement. Intelligence Services provides visibility and application controls for more than 45,000 cloud applications, including shadow IT. Listed protections include multi-layered inspection, Symantec antivirus, cloud sandboxing, and full web isolation. Cloud and on-premises SWG can share an interface for management, reporting, and policy control. Deployment options include on-premises, hybrid, and all-cloud configurations, with cloud services running on Google public cloud infrastructure. The product brief lists integrations for DLP and full CASB, and says the service minimizes public internet routes in favor of Google Cloud’s private backbone. Symantec SSE is priced annually per user, but Broadcom does not publish an amount; customers must contact Broadcom or a partner. Broadcom directs customers to partners for implementation services and its support resources for product support information.
