Integration Domains

Where Intelligent Visibility Elevates Your Cato Environment

Cato Networks offers a powerful all-in-one platform, but realizing its full potential takes more than a smooth install — it takes integration expertise, operational alignment, and deep understanding of both network and security domains. This is where Intelligent Visibility sets itself apart.

We help organizations extract maximum value from Cato by addressing the key integration points that matter most:

Global SD-WAN Architecture + Site Rollouts: We help you design, configure, and deploy Cato’s SD-WAN fabric across all sites — from large data centers to remote branches. Our team handles dynamic path selection, QoS policies, and cloud on-ramps to ensure optimized application delivery and resilient connectivity.

Security Policy Design + NGFW/SWG Integration: We go beyond basic deployment to craft fine-tuned NGFW and SWG policies tailored to your business. This includes application-layer firewall rules, URL filtering, DNS security, malware defense, and inline DLP — all integrated with your compliance framework.

Cloud + SaaS Optimization: We align Cato’s cloud optimization features with your Microsoft 365, Salesforce, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud workloads, ensuring you get the best possible performance, minimal latency, and resilient access for critical SaaS apps.

ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) Enablement:  We design and implement Cato’s ZTNA capabilities, creating secure, identity-based access for remote users, third-party contractors, and branch offices — integrated with your SSO/IdP providers (Okta, Azure AD, Ping) for seamless control.

CASB + Data Protection:  We deploy and configure Cato’s CASB features to give you visibility and control over SaaS application usage, data movement, and shadow IT, helping you align to internal policies and regulatory requirements.

SIEM + ITSM Integration:  We ensure your Cato deployment feeds critical events, alerts, and metrics into your broader operational ecosystem — including ServiceNow, Splunk, Sentinel, or other SIEM/ITSM platforms — so you maintain end-to-end observability and faster incident response.

Automation + Orchestration:  We help you leverage Cato’s orchestration APIs to automate routine tasks such as user onboarding, site provisioning, and policy updates — reducing manual effort and aligning the network with your DevOps + ITSM workflows.

With Intelligent Visibility, you don’t just deploy Cato — you embed it into your business, connecting people, apps, and data with resilience, security, and simplicity.
