Advanced Partner recognition is a distinction applying to less than 2% of Cato’s global partner network

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Aug. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Uniti Solutions, the leading provider of telecom infrastructure solutions, today announced it renewed its multiple-year partnership with Cato Networks Ltd., and is now named an "Advanced Partner" of the SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) technology leader. Uniti Solutions joins less than 2% of Cato’s global partners to achieve this designation.

This recognition highlights Uniti’s commitment to delivering secure, high-performance network services that put customers first. It follows Uniti Solutions’ recognition as Cato’s "Service Provider of the Year" for two consecutive years.

"Our partnership with Cato extends far beyond tech integration. With this new, multi-year agreement, we’re deepening our long-standing partnership to drive innovative SASE and security solutions to customers and channel partners," said Art Nichols, chief technology officer at Uniti Solutions. "Together, we’re helping businesses achieve robust, modernized security and reliable networking while also enabling operational efficiency, both now and in the future."

Uniti Solutions and Cato have a long-standing partnership; the two technology leaders work closely to develop innovative, turnkey services for secure networking and enhanced customer experiences.

As a result, Uniti customers benefit from a secure, reliable network experience with less day-to-day complexity across users, devices, and locations both in the United States and internationally. Additionally, customers benefit from services backed by a Uniti team that has years of experience designing, implementing, and supporting the Cato Networks SASE platform.

"Uniti Solutions has been a valued partner, bringing strong sales expertise, service provider experience, and operational innovation to our work together," said Karl Soderlund, global channel chief at Cato Networks. "We appreciate their collaboration and look forward to building on our relationship in the years ahead."

Uniti Solutions delivers a managed SASE (MSASE) service powered by the Cato SASE platform, aligning across users, apps, and devices from one device.

"We recognized the value of cloud-native security and networking for our customers before broader market adoption. Our partnership with Cato allowed us to deliver cutting-edge services that many businesses have now come to rely on," added Nichols.

To power the MSASE service, Uniti provides high-performance, reliable fiber connectivity, on-site installation, and end-to-end managed support. Cato delivers its cloud-native SASE platform, which converges security and networking, with a global private backbone.
