Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) as an emerging solution to enterprise security and networking platforms is acritical change which has been necessitated by the need to accommodate distributed users, cloud-native applicationsand dynamic access demands. Although SASE is an architectural convergence, which implies the delivery ofnetworking and security services as part of the same cloud-based system, the question of what it means to theexisting Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) framework is not well-studied. The conventional GRC modelswere developed upon infrastructures, distinct boundaries, and regular checks on compliance, which are becomingmore and more incompatible with steady and distributed SASE environments.This paper evaluates the claims of governance convergence or organizational mayhem about the adoption of SASEusing the analysis of its effects on traditional GRC models. The research explores the reconstruction of riskvisibility, ownership of control, auditability and compliance assurance through SASE. The paper finds main areas inwhich the misfit between SASE architectures and conventional GRC practices is evident through a systematicconceptual analysis, and in what circumstances SASE is able to increase the effectiveness of governance. Thesefindings indicate that in the absence of a specific adjustment of GRC processes, SASE can contribute to governancefragmentation; nevertheless, when adjusted to the continued and metrics-driven models of governance, SASE canserve as a driver of integrated and adaptive GRC in contemporary businesses.
