Timus accelerates your ability to deploy SASE.
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Timus to provide clients with network security when users work outside the office. Clients commonly have fairly robust internal network security with firewall rules, content filtering, etc. However, many users now work remotely and end up outside the office-based network security. When they're working on an unknown home (or elsewhere) network, we can still provide office-level network protection with Timus SASE.
Pros
- Seamless/unnoticeable to the end user.
- Simple and straight forward configuration.
- Support, onboarding, and documentation.
Cons
- Could use more insight into the exact status of Timus Connect on each device.
- Could use a wizard to configure posture checks, behaviors, sign-in policies, access policies, detectors, and responders in the right order and explain how they reference each other.
- Some way to make the gateway IP local to the user, so websites don't show the wrong state/location.
Return on Investment
- Allowed us to deploy a SASE solution months/years before we would have been prepared to do otherwise.
- Resulted in significantly fewer support requests from end users compared to other, more complicated/less user-friendly solutions.
