Enterprise Leaders Issue Industry Manifesto to Mandate Mplify SASE Certification
Briefly

"Mplify (formerly MEF), a global alliance of network, cloud, cybersecurity, and enterprise organizations working together to accelerate the AI-powered digital economy, today warned that the $10.5 trillion cybercrime economy (according to Cybersecurity Ventures), weaponized AI, and escalating global conflicts are creating unprecedented risks to IT systems and critical infrastructure. In response, its Enterprise Leadership Council (ELC) has issued a manifesto calling for mandatory SASE certification across all products, services, and solutions under the Mplify framework."
"Mplify's SASE certification validates solutions against rigorous, independently tested standards for SD-WAN, security service edge (SSE) and zero trust, giving enterprises assurance, transparency and confidence."
""SASE certification is not a checkbox. It is a catalyst for trust, innovation, and resilience," the manifesto states. "We urge the Mplify Board of Directors and Technology Advisory Board to act decisively. Together, let us build networks where secure connectivity is not an aspiration, but a certified reality.""

The manifesto is signed by major enterprise leaders and cites Gartner and IDC data showing rapidly increasing AI-powered attacks and rising global security spending. The manifesto asserts certification must become the baseline and calls for decisive action by Mplify leadership.
