Netskope, a leader in secure access service edge (SASE) technology, recently released a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study by Forrester Consulting, revealing impressive financial gains for customers using its Security Service Edge (SSE) solutions. The study underscores the transformative effects of Netskope’s technology on organizations seeking to modernize their network security infrastructure.

Key Findings from Netskope’s TEI Study

The TEI study modeled its findings on a composite organization based on actual customer data, revealing an 109% return on investment (ROI) over three years with a payback period of under six months. The study highlighted several areas where Netskope’s SSE solution has led to significant financial savings:

• Network Security Consolidation Savings: By retiring legacy data centers, equipment, and tools, organizations saved approximately $5.4 million over three years. These savings came from replacing outdated data loss prevention (DLP) tools, firewalls, and other hardware with Netskope’s modern security solutions.
• Productivity Gains: Improved network performance and availability led to approximately $1.8 million in productivity enhancements. Organizations saw reduced downtime and faster access to applications, helping improve overall efficiency and user satisfaction.
• Operational Efficiency: Netskope’s SSE platform drove a 30-35% increase in operational productivity, translating to around $1.5 million in savings. This resulted in reduced engineering labor, streamlined network operations, and faster resource allocation toward security engineering activities.

Market Implications

The study showcases the tangible benefits of adopting cloud-native security solutions like Netskope’s SSE, particularly for organizations managing large, hybrid workforces. Netskope’s NewEdge network—one of the world’s largest private security clouds—also delivers high-performance user experiences without compromising on security, an important feature for organizations aiming to support remote and hybrid environments.

For investors, the Netskope TEI study presents a quantifiable case for the cost-saving potential and operational efficiency of modern network security infrastructure. With cybersecurity threats increasing globally, solutions like Netskope’s SSE play a crucial role in helping organizations reduce costs and improve performance—highlighting the continued relevance of secure, cloud-based solutions in today’s technology market.
