Mplify, a global alliance focused on Network as a Service for AI and AI-ready digital infrastructure, has named SecureIQLab Inc. its sole Accredited Test and Certification Partner for its SASE certification program. Independent testing for the program now runs through this single designated partner.
Enterprise demand for transparency and independently validated security continues to grow. The Mplify Enterprise Leadership Council’s manifesto calls for certification to become a baseline across technology products, solutions, and services. Enterprise leaders identified independent validation as essential to improving trust, simplifying procurement, and reducing risk. As applications, data, and AI workloads spread across clouds, data centers, edge environments, and business locations, organizations depend on secure connectivity.
The program covers the three core components of a SASE offering: SD-WAN, Security Service Edge, and Zero Trust. Technology providers may certify one component or all three. Service providers can inherit applicable certifications when their services use eligible certified technologies, and Mplify checks eligibility without requiring additional service-provider or live-network testing. Services may inherit certifications from one or more technology providers, which supports multi-vendor SASE services.
SecureIQLab will conduct independent testing and work with Mplify to advance the methodology used to evaluate SD-WAN, SSE, Zero Trust, and full SASE technologies. Under the program, it will test eligible solutions against Mplify certification requirements. The company brings cybersecurity testing expertise and independent evaluation capabilities. Certified technologies and services receive Mplify certification marks and a listing in the Mplify public registry.
“Independent validation separates the organization making a claim from the organization verifying it, and it grounds every result in evidence collected under defined conditions,” said Ahmed Garhy, VP of Engineering, SecureIQLab. “Mplify members agree on the requirements, so we apply the same conditions, evidence collection, and scoring to every technology provider.”
“Secure connectivity is fundamental to trusted NaaS and the infrastructure supporting enterprise AI,” said Daniel Bar-Lev, Chief Product Officer, Mplify. “Mplify SASE Certification gives enterprises clear evidence that the technologies behind a service have been independently tested against open, industry-defined standards.” The organizations outlined plans for SecureIQLab to advance testing methodology for SASE technologies.
