CISA Publishes Guidance on SASE Adoption for Zero Trust in Federal Agencies (infosecurity-magazine.com)

• CISA guidance replaces MTIPS with SASE for TIC 3.0 zero trust transition.
• SASE bundles SD-WAN with security functions; vendor-agnostic approach.
• No longer recommends routine TLS decryption; favors ML-based pattern analysis.
• Agencies must feed telemetry to CISA's CLAW to retain visibility.

"CISA released new guidance on June 24, 2026, to help U.S. federal agencies replace legacy internet gateways with Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) technology to implement the TIC 3.0 zero-trust architecture. The vendor-agnostic guide advises against routine decryption of encrypted traffic, recommending machine learning-based pattern analysis instead. Agencies must maintain CISA visibility by feeding telemetry to the Comprehensive Log Aggregation Warehouse (CLAW)."
