Overview

Aryaka is the first SASE vendor to combine a unified single-pass architecture, global private network backbone, and security, observability and application performance capabilities into a single platform delivered as a service.

Aryaka’s Unified SASE as a Service converges and delivers four critical design elements. First, Aryaka OnePass Architecture enables distributed policy enforcement through a distributed data plane, unified control plane and single management pane. Second, Aryaka’s Zero Trust WAN traverses Aryaka’s global private network backbone operating in more than 100 countries. Third, Aryaka’s Comprehensive Networking, Security and Observability Services included the new Aryaka SmartSecure next-generation firewall (NGFW) with secure web gateway (SWG), anti-malware and intrusion prevention system (IPS). Finally, Aryaka’s Flexible Delivery empowers businesses to choose their preferred approach to delivery, be it though Aryaka or a third-party and implementation, be it managed, co-managed or self-managed.

Aryaka’s services are designed to modernize enterprises of any size, enabling them to defy convention and future-proof their businesses. The company’s customer base is comprised of hundreds of global enterprises, including several in the Fortune 100.

Aryaka adopts a win together mentality with their customers, aligning business outcomes so that customer wins are Aryaka’s wins. This strategy begins with dynamic engagement, helping Aryaka gain a better understanding of customer needs and how they change. This leads to a higher-level customer experience, which is where Aryaka’s unique approach shines through versus against traditional telco providers.

In 2023, a Total Economic Impact Report conducted by Forrester Consulting found that Aryka delivered a 113% ROI and $2.48M in net present value over the course of three years. Additionally, the study found a 45% reduction in effort from NetOps to manage WAN services and the sunsetting of preexisting multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) circuits to SD-WAN saved companies $2.2 million
