Key Features


  • Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS) identifies applications and inspects traffic for exploits and malware with over 99.8 percent effectiveness.
  • Secure Web Gateway (SWG) protects web access by enforcing acceptable use policies and preventing web-borne threats.
  • Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) provides visibility into SaaS applications and granular controls to ensure authorized access, threat prevention, and compliance.
  • Data Loss Prevention (DLP). Classifies and monitors data transactions and ensures business compliance requirements and data-protection rules are followed.
  • Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). Gives remote users secure access to corporate and cloud resources, providing reliable connectivity and consistent security to any device, anywhere. Reduces risk by extending visibility and enforcement to users and devices wherever they are.
  • Advanced Threat Prevention. Discovers zero-day malware and malicious connections, including botnets and C2, even when traffic cannot be decrypted. Enforces granular protection mechanisms, such as file quarantine and reduced access rights. 

Features + Benefits

Single policy framework from a single UI

Unified policy management from the edge through the data center means fewer policy gaps, elimination of human error, and a more secure environment. 

Secure user access from anywhere

Support your remote workforce in the office, at home, or on the road with secure access to the applications and resources they need. Consistent security policies follow users, devices, and applications without copying or recreating rule sets. 

Dynamic user segmentation

Follow-the-user policy provides automated access control to employees and third-party contractors through granular policy, locking down third-party access as an attack vector. Configure additional verification for third-party and risky users to reduce the attack surface at the edge. 

Protect access to applications on-premises and in the cloud

Reduce risk by leveraging effective threat prevention services proven to be the most effective on the market by multiple third-party tests to inspect traffic, ensuring secure access to web, SaaS, and on-premises applications from anywhere.

Transition at a pace that’s best for your business

Evolve your SASE architecture at your own pace, whether on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment. Juniper meets you where you are on your journey to leverage the cloud-delivered security capabilities of Secure Edge for both on-premises edge security at the campus and branch, and for your remote workforce, working from anywhere.

99.9% Security Effectiveness
