Swedish vendor Ericsson has acquired secure access software provider Ericom Software via its US-based enterprise networking division Cradlepoint. The transaction, for an undisclosed sum, shores up Cradlepoint’s secure access service edge (SASE) and zero-trust offerings for hybrid 5G and wireline environments, the company said.
New Jersey-based Ericom Software sells secure access products for connecting to enterprise applications. Its portfolio follows Gartner’s SASE framework, with access control products for secure web gateway (SWG), remote browser isolation (RBI), cloud access security broker (CASB), and zero-trust network access (ZTNA).
