Market Demand for SSE
Secure, optimized work from anywhere is already recognized as a
necessity and a primary business opportunity for all CIOs and their

that, "Over the next five years, the market for secure access
service edge will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 29%,
reaching over $25 billion by
2027."1
Gartner also predicts that "By 2027, the largest SD-WAN and SSE

innovations.
"Netskope customers know that best-of-breed security and the
fastest performance are simultaneously achievable. They are
foundational to how they transform their security and networking
investments and address the proliferation of cloud and AI we are
seeing in the enterprise," said Sanjay

be placed the highest in execution and furthest in vision in
Security Service Edge for two consecutive years, and our ability to
execute behind our vision has never once wavered. I'm extremely
proud of our entire Netskope team, customers, and partners for what
we've achieved in SSE, SASE, and zero trust. We're just getting
started."
