What are three ways the secure access service edge (SASE) model can help an organization? (Choose three.)

Question

Options

• Acost savings
• Bdata protection
• Cincreased licensing requirements
• Dincreased performance
• Edecreased reliance on best practices

• A
  93% (37)
• C
  5% (2)
• E
  3% (1)

Explanation

SASE combines networking and security into a unified cloud-delivered service, which inherently reduces costs (A) by consolidating multiple point solutions into one subscription, protects data (B) through integrated DLP, CASB, and zero-trust controls enforced at the edge, and improves performance (D) by routing traffic through optimized global PoPs closer to users rather than backhauling through a central datacenter.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• C (increased licensing) is the opposite of reality - SASE consolidates vendors and typically reduces licensing complexity and cost.
• E (decreased reliance on best practices) is backwards - SASE enforces security best practices (least-privilege, zero-trust) by design; you can't bypass them.

Memory tip: Think of SASE's benefits as "CAP" - Cost savings, Access security (data protection), Performance. Any answer suggesting SASE adds complexity or weakens standards is a red flag - the entire point of SASE is to simplify and strengthen security simultaneously.
