\n Islamabad
\nFortinet, the global cybersecurity leader driving the convergence of networking and security, presented its Sovereign SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) solution on its third Fortinet Security Day (Sept 16, 2025) in Pakistan.
\nThrough SASE solution, Fortinet in fact demonstrates how organizations can address data residency, privacy, and operational requirements without compromising security, user experience, or scalability.
\nBesides, Fortinet\u2019s Sovereign SASE solution enables businesses to securely connect and protect users, applications, and data, regardless of location. It aims to guarantee that data resides and is processed within specific geographical boundaries, giving organizations complete control over their sensitive information while respecting their compliance of regional and local regulations.
\nAccording to the Fortinet spokesperson and Senior Regional Director, Shadi Khuffash, SASE is envisaged for a range of industries and is ideal for organizations operating in highly regulated verticals with sensitive data like government, finance, and healthcare, or any business that handles classified information and critical infrastructure.
\nSaqib Ishfaq, Regional Director for Pakistan at Fortinet, commented: \u201cIn today\u2019s interconnected global economy, organizations face a growing and constantly evolving array of cybersecurity threats and compliance complexities. At the same time, local data protection regulations, such as the Personal Data Protection Bill (PDPB) 2023, create strict requirements around data governance that organizations in Pakistan must navigate. Fortinet\u2019s Sovereign SASE helps organizations to proactively detect and respond to threats, improve anomaly detection, and enhance user experience. This in turn creates a more agile and transparent industry that can respond to the needs of its citizens in real-time.\u201d
\nFortinet\u2019s third Security Day in Pakistan is bringing together customers, partners, industry professionals and esteemed guests from across Pakistan, including national government. In addition to informative talks, a dedicated Tech Expo offered opportunities to gain security insights, discover the latest trends and innovations, and connect with peers and experts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
