Shlomo Kramer, CEO and co-founder of Cato Networks, attributes this sustained market recognition to the company's focus on a shared data foundation. By moving away from fragmented, multi-vendor integrations, the platform enables consistent policy enforcement and rapid decision-making across complex enterprise environments. This approach aligns with broader industry forecasts; Gartner analysts suggest that by 2029, a majority of large organizations with expiring SASE contracts will pivot to single-vendor, AI-native platforms to better manage non-human identity visibility and complex workflows.
Cato Networks Maintains Leader Status in Gartner SASE Magic Quadrant
For the third consecutive year, Cato Networks has secured a Leader position in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SASE Platforms. The recognition highlights the company's shift toward a unified, AI-native architecture designed to simplify global network operations while addressing the security challenges posed by modern AI agents.
Global enterprises are already testing these capabilities in practice. Mary Kay Inc., which operates across 40 international markets, recently adopted the Cato SASE Platform to overhaul its digital infrastructure. Ajay Patel, VP of Business and Technology Services at the beauty company, noted that the consolidation of network and security tools provided the visibility needed to support both current operations and future AI-driven innovations. The platform offers a modular suite, including SD-WAN, universal ZTNA, and dedicated AI security, allowing organizations to scale their security posture as their needs evolve.
