SASE Has An AI Blind Spot. Inspecting Packets Is No Longer Enough.

**The Hacker News** article explains that traditional network-centric SASE inspection (cloud proxies performing decryption and policy enforcement) is increasingly ineffective against modern protocols (TLS 1.3, HTTP/3, certificate pinning), browser-based workflows, and AI/agent-driven data interactions; it argues enforcement must move to the endpoint/browser to inspect copy/paste and prompt content locally and to avoid performance penalties from proxy backhauling, promoting a 'Perfect Packet' architecture that evaluates context at the last mile and invokes cloud inspection only when necessary.
