How Cloudbrink Outperforms Traditional SASE in Solving Remote Work Challenges
With more than half of companies reporting that employees work at least one day each week remotely, security for remote work has become an increasingly pressing issue. Across the world, organizations that are using Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) to bolster their connectivity and security continue to experience problems with performance, higher costs, and overly complicated system management. The working world is moving toward remote and hybrid work at large has made secure off-site access more critical than ever before. However, as these performance issues persist, so do the challenges companies face regarding the security of corporate files and client information. This article reviews the shortcomings of traditional SASE in optimizing remote work experiences and the options for reliable solutions to help alleviate these problems by leveraging the latest Cloudbrink publication, “2025 Trends in Hybrid Work Report: The Facts Behind Balancing Security and Performance.”

China’s Effort to Build a Competitor to Starlink Is Off to a Bumpy Start
China’s Effort to Build a Competitor to Starlink Is Off to a Bumpy Start In a world increasingly driven by data connectivity, and satellite technology China’s ambitious attempt to rival Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet network is both a strategic necessity and a national prestige project. However as with many grand visions the road to execution has proven to be far from smooth. China’s twin satellite internet initiatives Guowang (also called SatNet or Xingwang) and Qianfan (also known as Spacesail) are part of a state driven effort to create a low Earth orbit LEO satellite constellation that could provide global broadband coverage enhance military communication and establish China as a major space power. While these projects symbolize China’s desire to assert technological independence and global influence their rollout so far has been marred by technical logistical and regulatory challenges.
