LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Mplify, a global alliance advancing Network as a Service (NaaS) for AI and AI-ready digital infrastructure, has announced a significant partnership with SecureIQLab Inc. to enhance its SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) Certification program. SecureIQLab will serve as Mplify's sole Accredited Test and Certification Partner (ATCP), conducting independent testing and collaborating to refine the testing methodologies for SD-WAN, Security Service Edge (SSE), and Zero Trust technologies.
Through this partnership, Mplify aims to provide a robust certification framework for SASE technologies, ensuring that both technology and service providers meet stringent industry standards. The program addresses the core components of a SASE offering, including SD-WAN, SSE, and Zero Trust, allowing technology providers to certify individual components or achieve full Mplify SASE Certification across all three. Service providers can inherit these certifications when their services leverage eligible certified technologies.
Mplify's SASE Certification is designed to offer independent validation that eligible technologies meet open, industry-defined requirements for security, service functionality, and performance. This certification is particularly important as enterprise applications, data, and AI workloads become increasingly distributed. Secure connectivity is fundamental to trusted NaaS and the infrastructure supporting enterprise AI, making Mplify SASE Certification a critical tool for enterprises and service providers.
Ahmed Garhy, Vice President of Engineering at SecureIQLab, emphasized the importance of independent validation.
Daniel Bar-Lev, Chief Product Officer at Mplify, highlighted the significance of this partnership.
The certification program also offers several benefits to technology and service providers. For technology providers, certification provides independent validation of their solutions and a recognized way to demonstrate conformance to industry requirements. For service providers, the inheritance model streamlines the path to certification, allowing them to offer services built with independently tested technologies. Enterprises gain greater visibility into the technologies underlying the services they evaluate and procure.
Certified technologies will receive Mplify certification marks and a listing in the Mplify public registry, increasing their visibility among customers and ecosystem partners. These marks and listings are expected to enhance the credibility and marketability of certified technologies.
Mplify and SecureIQLab are committed to advancing the testing methodology for SASE technologies and ensuring that the certification program keeps pace with evolving security requirements and technologies. The partnership is a response to growing enterprise demand for greater transparency and independently validated security, aligning with the Mplify Enterprise Leadership Council's Manifesto for Advancing Trust, Assurance, and Resilience through SASE Certification.
