Have More Questions?

How does Cato avoid impeding network performance with its security capabilities?
Cato Networks outperforms other ZTNA and SASE platforms primarily through its unique combination of global private backbone, self-healing architecture, and AI-driven security analysis. These features ensure reliable, secure connectivity and proactive threat mitigation across the globe. What truly sets Cato apart, however, is its single-pass architecture. This innovative design processes network traffic in a single pass, maintaining consistent performance regardless of the number of security functions applied. This means that businesses can enable comprehensive security measures without sacrificing network speed or reliability, a critical advantage in today’s fast-paced digital environment and do so in an iterative manner and without the need to resize hardware.
Can Cato replace my anti-virus and XDR solutions?
Cato’s Endpoint Protection (EPP) and extended detection and response (XDR) solutions can displace other anti-virus, anti-malware, and XDR solutions in a customer environment. Licensed separately, customers have the flexibility to use one or both of these features and retain the use of an incumbent product. With Cato’s EPP and XDR platform, customers simplify their technology stack, reduce administrative overhead, and enhance the security telemetry of their network and security platform.
How comprehensive are Cato Network’s security capabilities?
Cato includes a full stack of integrated security services, such as a next-generation firewall, secure web gateway, endpoint management and XDR, cloud access security broker, data-loss prevention, TLS inspection, and advanced threat protection, among others. This comprehensive approach to security means threats are mitigated more effectively, without compromising performance thanks to Cato’s single-pass architecture.
Does Cato have Enterprise Browser and Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) abilities?
Cato incorporates Enterprise Browser and Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) capabilities into its platform, emphasizing security without compromising user productivity. It enables safe access to websites by isolating browsing activity in a secure, remote environment, which significantly reduces the risk of web-based attacks. Cato’s RBI is a strategic addition, enhancing its SASE platform by offering robust protection against phishing and ransomware, and managing web access risks effectively. Coupled with conditional access policies from leading identity management platforms, customers can secure access to web and SaaS apps to a greater degree while also air-gapping user Internet access from the corporate network and its devices for greater security.
What features does Cato have to secure and control web traffic?
Cato employs a robust set of features to secure and control web traffic, including its Secure Web Gateway (SWG) for URL filtering, SSL/TLS inspection, and malware protection. Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) further secures browsing by isolating potentially harmful web content. Additionally, Cato’s Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) provides detailed control and security for cloud applications, ensuring comprehensive web and cloud activity protection. Together, these tools form an integrated defense against a wide range of online threats.
How is Cato differentiated in the SD-WAN market?
Cato Networks sets itself apart in the SD-WAN space by seamlessly integrating SD-WAN with Cato’s comprehensive security services on its global private backbone, offering unparalleled application performance and reliability. Its cloud-native architecture enables near-effortless scalability, while a self-healing network ensures continuous connectivity. Centralized management of WAN and security policies simplifies operations, and optimized connections for cloud and mobile users enhance productivity. By consolidating networking and security into one platform, Cato reduces costs and complexity, making it an ideal solution for modern enterprises seeking to upgrade their WAN infrastructure for improved connectivity, security, and operational efficiency.
How does Cato Networks differ from other SASE and ZTNA providers like ZScaler, Palo Alto Prisma, and Netskope?

Cato Networks stands out with its unique approach to SASE and ZTNA, offering several key advantages:

  • Global Private Backbone: Cato’s own global network ensures reliable, low-latency connectivity worldwide, setting it apart from solutions relying on public internet paths.
  • Single-Pass Architecture and Self-Healing: With a design that processes data in a single pass and self-heals, Cato guarantees high performance and minimal downtime, even with extensive security functions active.
  • Integrated SASE Platform: Built from the ground up as a SASE platform, Cato offers a seamless, integrated solution, unlike competitors that may piece together acquired technologies.
  • Simplified Management: A unified console offers unparalleled visibility and control, simplifying network and security management across the organization.
  • Cost Efficiency: Consolidating network and security services into one platform, Cato reduces the complexity and costs associated with managing multiple vendors and products including endpoint security.
  • Optimized Cloud and Mobile Access: Direct access for cloud and mobile users enhances speed and reduces latency, improving the user experience for remote access and cloud applications.

Cato’s foundation as a SASE platform, combined with its innovative network backbone and single-pass architecture, provides businesses with a powerful, efficient, and user-friendly solution that addresses modern connectivity and security challenges.
