GISEC 2025 | Huawei and IEEE Release Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution White Paper for the Middle East

[Dubai, UAE, May 7, 2025] During the Gulf Information Security Expo and Conference (GISEC) 2025, Huawei successfully hosted the Xinghe Intelligent Network Security session. At this session, Huawei and IEEE jointly unveiled the Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution White Paper (the "White Paper") for the Middle East. The white paper details the potential applications of the SASE solution in the AI era, outlining the necessary network architecture, key technologies, and best practices for unified management, intelligent detection, and coordinated response to network security threats, aiming to advance the maturity of the SASE industry in the Middle East.

Huawei releases Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution White Paper for the Middle East.

Dr. Hussam Al-Hamadi, Senior IEEE Member, IEEE UAE Section, Tang Zhentian, President of Huawei Middle East & Central Asia ICT Marketing & Solution Sales Department, and Richard Wu, President of Security Product Domain at Huawei Data Communication Product Line, were present at the event.

The dawn of the AI era has seen widespread adoption of AI technologies across various sectors. However, these advancements also pose new threats as AI can be exploited for network attacks, thereby increasing network security risks. Each year, the number of new viruses grows by hundreds of millions, and branch offices often lack adequate protection, making them vulnerable to breaches. To address these challenges, Huawei has integrated AI technologies throughout its "cloud-network-edge-endpoint" architecture, enhancing the capabilities of the Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution and building a robust, intelligent defense system.

Huawei and IEEE have collaborated to produce the Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution White Paper, which delves into the evolving trends of SASE technologies, core architectural innovations, and typical applications. This document offers crucial technical guidance for digital and intelligent transformations in the Middle East, significantly accelerating the commercialization of SASE technologies in the region.

Dr. Hussam Al-Hamadi, Senior IEEE Member, IEEE UAE Section, stated that the Xinghe Intelligent Unified SASE Solution White Paper is crucial given the rapid advancement of AI. The white paper details the key technical advantages and innovative practices of Huawei's SASE solution, guiding enterprises in establishing an intelligent, integrated multi-branch network security system.

In the future, Huawei plans to further develop SASE technologies and promote the transition to a cloud-network-edge-endpoint architecture, ensuring the secure digital transformation of various industries.
