MetTel Taps Netskope for Managed SASE Services Across Enterprise and Government

modernize cybersecurity SASE

MetTel has selected Netskope to power its new suite of managed Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) offerings for enterprise and government customers. The collaboration aims to simplify how organizations manage network connectivity and security by delivering both through a single, AI-driven managed service.

The partnership integrates Netskope’s SASE platform—Netskope One—into MetTel’s managed network services. This enables secure and policy-based access to cloud, web, and private applications from anywhere, meeting the growing demands of distributed workforces and evolving security threats. The platform also consolidates multiple security and networking functions including SD-WAN, Secure Web Gateway, Cloud Access Security Broker, Zero Trust Network Access, Remote Browser Isolation, and Firewall-as-a-Service.

With its AI-powered operations, Netskope One monitors network performance across users, branches, and cloud environments, detecting anomalies and triggering automated remediation. This proactive approach supports consistent, secure access and optimizes digital experience management across complex infrastructures.

By combining their capabilities, MetTel and Netskope aim to offer an end-to-end managed solution that aligns with enterprise modernization efforts—particularly those adapting to cloud-first, AI-driven environments. The offering addresses both security posture and performance needs while reducing the burden on in-house IT and security teams.

This partnership is another signal that MSPs need to think beyond traditional connectivity and start delivering full-stack, managed SASE services. Clients, especially in enterprise and government, are looking for one provider to handle both secure access and reliable network performance. If you’re an MSP still separating network and security, you’re going to be up against providers offering integrated, AI-driven solutions that scale better and respond faster to threats.

There’s also a clear message here about automation. Netskope’s AI-powered monitoring and threat detection reduce manual work, improve SLAs, and help teams stay ahead of performance issues. That kind of operational efficiency is becoming a must-have for MSPs trying to serve complex environments without ballooning headcount. Whether you’re partnering with a vendor or building out your own stack, this is the direction things are headed.
