Zero Trust Starts Here: A Practical Path from VPN to ZTNA 

As legacy VPN solutions approach end of life, security and network leaders are confronting a familiar problem with new urgency: VPN architectures were never designed for hybrid work, SaaS-first environments, or the continuous verification demands of a modern threat landscape. Latency, traffic hairpinning, overly broad network access, and limited visibility are now structural liabilities -- not edge cases. 

In this session, Dhiraj Sehgal and Padmanabhan show how Zero Trust Network Access serves as the natural replacement for VPN-based remote access and the logical on-ramp to a Secure Access Service Edge architecture. This is not a pitch for rip-and-replace -- it's a practical, phased migration path that security and network teams can execute before EOL forces a rushed transition. 

You'll learn: 

  • Why VPN architectures introduce structural security and operational limitations in cloud and hybrid environments 
  • How ZTNA enforces least-privilege, identity- and device-aware access to applications -- not the network 
  • The ZTNA capabilities that matter most when building toward a long-term SASE strategy 
  • How unified ZTNA enables continuous verification, device posture checks, and inline threat inspection 
  • A phased migration approach to move from VPN to ZTNA without downtime or user disruption 

Join the Versa team to see how organisations are using ZTNA as the first step toward SASE -- improving access performance, reducing operational complexity, and strengthening their security foundation before EOL forces the issue.
