How I feel trying to explain the presence of DLP capability in CASB, in SWG, and then in SASE (because CASB and SWG inside). Some vendors are the same, some are different.

The moment has come. Tiny Curmudgeon turned to me at dinner tonight, held up a fish stick, and started interrogating me about how and why the fish is in a crispy fish stick and who did this to the fish.
