Cloudflare Authorised Service Delivery Partner (ASDP)
You have validated Cloudflare One as your target architecture. Designing ZTNA, hooking up identity providers, configuring inline DLP, and running the platform 24/7 takes platform expertise and availability that few internal teams have. Brixio takes ownership of the full lifecycle, from architecture to operations, and turns your target model into managed infrastructure, with fast escalation to Cloudflare engineering when it is needed.
A CIO or CISO looking for an implementation partner does not want a lecture on proxy mechanics. They want to migrate thousands of users from a legacy VPN to Zero Trust without downtime, keep access policies clean quarter after quarter, and prove architectural segmentation to an auditor. SASE is not a set-and-forget product: it is a security posture that evolves every day, and many deployments drift within months for lack of day-two operational capacity in-house. Brixio steps in on the three execution gaps that make SASE projects fail in production.
A ZTNA setup that simply replicates the old, overly broad perimeter does not shrink the attack surface: it moves the perimeter to the cloud without stopping lateral movement. Granular per-application scoping is what makes the difference.
Joiners, movers, leavers, shadow SaaS tools and re-organisations turn early-stage access rules obsolete within months. Without a structured review cycle, the security posture degrades silently.
Filtering malicious domains (via the SWG) is the easy part. Actively controlling data exfiltration (inline DLP) and regaining control over shadow IT (via the CASB) takes permanent fine-tuning, the exact work internal teams rarely have the cycles to maintain.
Cloudflare One converges five capabilities into a single control plane, and runs every one of them in every Cloudflare data centre, on a single network, with traffic inspected closest to the user rather than backhauled to a central appliance. The security posture stays consistent without trading away performance. What vendor sheets rarely explain is the operational effort each component demands once it is live. That is exactly the work Brixio takes on.
Magic WAN is also the connective layer for organisations converging IT and OT networks. See Magic WAN for IT/OT network convergence.
Already invested in an SD-WAN you intend to keep? Cloudflare One can be deployed as Security Service Edge only (ZTNA, SWG and CASB, without Magic WAN), then converged into full SASE later, when Magic WAN replaces or complements that layer. SSE is a deployment variant of the same five capabilities, not a competing product.
Brixio also operates Email Security service and Browser Isolation on the same Cloudflare platform. They sit adjacent to SASE's formal definition rather than within it, but they share the same control plane and the same managed run, so there is no second stack to operate.
The same Cloudflare plane also runs web application and API protection (WAAP) for inbound app and API traffic, and a managed SOC for round-the-clock detection and response, so outbound SASE and inbound protection share one operator.
Regulated organisations deploying a Zero Trust architecture face jurisdiction-specific requirements that most managed security providers do not cover. A SASE deployment that is technically correct can still fail an audit if the configuration decisions are not mapped to the applicable framework and documented. Brixio maps each Cloudflare One configuration to the framework and can document every decision for audit.

The same discipline rests on local frameworks. In the Gulf, that means the UAE Information Assurance (IA) Standards (enforced by the SIA, formerly NESA) and the KSA NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls; in Europe, NIS2, the GDPR, and data-sovereignty requirements.
A Cloudflare One programme with Brixio follows five phases, from discovery to a fully operated production posture. Most organisations move to SASE progressively rather than all at once, so the sequence is built to replace the legacy stack without disrupting it.
We map the full estate: users, devices, applications, identity providers, and the existing access stack.
→ A current-state map, a target posture, and a prioritised rollout plan.
We design the target architecture, starting with identity (Entra ID, Okta, Google) and device posture, and pilot the WARP client.
→ Identity is the foundation of SASE: every access decision keys off it.
A pilot group goes live in log-only mode: ZTNA, SWG and DLP observe traffic without blocking, tuned against real usage.
→ False positives removed, access and performance validated, before any enforcement.
Policies move from monitor to enforce, application by application: per-app ZTNA replaces VPN, remaining sites connect over Magic WAN.
→ Legacy VPN concentrators decommissioned as each workload migrates. No big-bang switchover.
In production we maintain the posture, not freeze it: policy reviews, quarterly access recertification, monitoring, audit evidence.
→ The architecture stays accurate as the environment changes. One operator, no break between phases.

Brixio is a cybersecurity team that made a choice: to focus entirely on Cloudflare and become a true specialist. We deploy and operate the entire Cloudflare platform and nothing else, which gives us a level of mastery a generalist does not reach.
That focus is recognised by Cloudflare as Authorised Service Delivery Partner status. Brixio handles your incidents itself, P1 included; when a problem can only be fixed by the vendor, its tickets to Cloudflare are better documented and handled faster than the standard route.
Brixio configures and operates Cloudflare One as a security team, focused on what a CISO answers for: a smaller attack surface, least-privilege access, controlled data egress. A genuine security posture, not a go-live.
Assessment, deployment, managed run, reactive support, emergency response: one operator across the whole cycle, with no handover and no loss of context between phases.
Engineers active in Luxembourg, Paris, Dubai, and Singapore, for continuous coverage across Gulf, European, and Asia-Pacific time zones, with no break in service.
Every configuration is tied to the obligation it satisfies, from the UAE IA Standards and KSA NCA to NIS2 and DORA, and handed over as an audit-ready evidence pack. Documentation is produced as you go, not after the fact.
Managed SASE is a model in which a certified partner deploys and operates a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture on behalf of an organisation. Instead of building and running the ZTNA, SWG, CASB, FWaaS, and SD-WAN components in-house, the organisation delegates configuration, monitoring, policy management, and incident response to a specialist operator. Brixio provides managed SASE exclusively on the Cloudflare One platform.
Zero Trust is a security model based on the principle of never trusting and always verifying access, regardless of network location. SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) is an architectural framework that delivers Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) alongside Secure Web Gateway (SWG), CASB, FWaaS, and SD-WAN as a unified cloud-native service. Zero Trust defines the principle; SASE defines the delivery architecture. Cloudflare One implements both at once.
Security Service Edge (SSE) is the security-only subset of SASE: it covers ZTNA, SWG, and CASB but excludes the SD-WAN networking layer. Organisations that already have an SD-WAN investment may deploy SSE independently. Full SASE converges both layers. Cloudflare One can be deployed as SSE-only or as full SASE, with Magic WAN replacing or complementing the SD-WAN layer.
The duration depends on scope: number of users, branch offices, existing network architecture, and regulatory requirements. The deployment follows five phases: assessment, architecture design, pilot rollout, full deployment, and handover to managed operations. Brixio confirms an indicative timeline at the end of the assessment phase, once the scope is known. Emergency fast-track deployments are available for organisations under active threat.
Yes. Brixio has active operations in Dubai and deploys SASE architectures for UAE and KSA organisations subject to the UAE Information Assurance (IA) Standards, enforced by the Signals Intelligence Agency (SIA, formerly NESA), to the KSA National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) Essential Cybersecurity Controls, and to PDPL (Personal Data Protection Law) data-residency requirements. Brixio maps Cloudflare One configurations to these specific obligations.
Cloudflare sells licences. A Cloudflare Authorised Service Delivery Partner (ASDP) deploys, configures, and operates the platform on your behalf, and, as an ASDP, gets faster, better-documented handling from Cloudflare when only the vendor can fix a problem. The ASDP model fills the gap between purchasing a Cloudflare Enterprise licence and having it run correctly in production. Brixio is one of the leading ASDPs in the EMEA region, with dedicated presence across the Gulf/ME and Europe.
