Cato Networks Unveils AI-Driven SASE Policy Analysis Engine

Cato Networks has announced the launch of Cato Autonomous Policies, an AI-driven policy analysis engine integrated into its SASE Cloud Platform, announced in a press release. This new capability is designed to optimize security, access, and network policies, aiming to reduce risks and simplify compliance for enterprises.

The first application of Cato Autonomous Policies is in Firewall-as-a-Service (FWaaS), addressing the issue of firewall rule bloat. By leveraging AI, Cato aims to eliminate outdated and misconfigured policies, thereby enhancing security and operational efficiency.
