เคล็ดลับ

• Zero Trust First: เรียน Zero Trust Concepts ก่อน เป็นพื้นฐานของ SASE
• Cloud Skills: เรียน AWS/Azure Security เพราะ SASE ทำงานบน Cloud
• Home Lab: สร้าง Lab ฝึกจริง อย่าเรียนแค่ Theory ต้องลงมือทำ
• Certifications: เริ่มจาก Security+ แล้วค่อยไป CCNP Security / CISSP
• Portfolio: สร้าง Portfolio จาก Lab Projects เขียน Blog แชร์ผลงาน
• Community: เข้าร่วม OWASP Thailand, Security Meetups สร้าง Network

SASE คืออะไร

Framework รวม Network Security บน Cloud SD-WAN CASB SWG ZTNA FWaaS เข้าถึงทรัพยากรปลอดภัยจากทุกที่ ไม่ต้อง VPN เหมาะ Remote Work Cloud-first

สรุป

SASE Framework รวม Network Security บน Cloud เหมาะกับ Remote Work IT Freelance สาย Security มีโอกาสมาก เรียน Zero Trust Cloud Security สอบ Cert สร้าง Home Lab ฝึกจริง สร้าง Portfolio Blog รับงาน Consulting ค่าตัวดี
