Breaking Down Versa Inbound SSE: Securing Internet Traffic Accessing Your Applications
Security Service Edge (SSE) has become the standard architecture for protecting outbound internet traffic and providing secure access to applications. If you’ve adopted SSE, you’ve likely already seen how it simplifies securing users, SaaS applications, and data leaving your network. But most SSE architectures were designed primarily for outbound traffic, leaving another important challenge largely unchanged: protecting internet traffic accessing your applications.
Delivering Uninterrupted Enterprise 5G Connectivity with Versa and 10T Solutions
We are excited to announce a powerful integration between Versa Networks and 10T Solutions. This industry-leading innovation brings native multi-carrier 10T eSIM connectivity directly to Versa Secure SD-WAN appliances. Enterprises are rapidly adopting cellular connectivity to accelerate branch deployments, support mobile operations, and ensure business continuity.
Rethinking 5G for the Enterprise WAN: From Basic Modems to Intelligent Extenders
The promise of 5G for enterprise WAN is clear. It’s a required connectivity for IT leaders to gain better bandwidth, lower latency and faster branch deployments. It is an important tool for business continuity in the event of unforeseen network failures. As nns accelerate branch expansion, adopt cloud and SaaS applications, and prepare for connectivity to AI workloads, 5G is no longer an option, it is foundational.
Transforming IT Troubleshooting: How Versa DEM Resolves User Experience Problems and Empowers Your Distributed Workforce
Versa DEM provides IT teams with unparalleled visibility across devices, networks, and applications, regardless of where users are located. It allows IT to see and analyze performance metrics for each network segment, enabling them to pinpoint issues quickly and accurately.
Securing IoT Devices on Mobile Networks
Securing the over three billion IoT devices globally connected to corporate systems via mobile networks presents a formidable and growing challenge for organizations worldwide. Driven by the adoption of newer IoT-specific cell technologies like LTE-M, NB-IoT, and LTE-Cat 1, along with a boom in 5G module shipments as older 2G and 3G modules are phased out, the number of cell-connected IoT devices is growing 27 percent a year, taking market share from Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections. My recent collaboration with the network and security team of one of our industrial customers provided a front-row seat to the complexities of safeguarding…
Versa Networks and Google Cloud Accelerate Access to Cloud Workloads and Branch Offices
We are excited to now be a part of Google Cloud Network Connectivity Center allowing our customers to secure access to cloud workloads and branch sites. With this integration, Versa delivers end-to-end security and network control that reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO). This integration allows for secure and reliable connectivity to cloud workloads and on-premises resources in an automated, dynamic approach. Read more about the integrations at the Google blog.
SD-WAN: Making Sense of the Cloud Cuckoo Land
You finished moving your applications to the cloud. The project went live, and you hoped that soon you would be reaping immense benefits from your cloud investment. You wait. And wait some more. And then reality strikes. Mainstream network technologies that build up most enterprise networks of today were not built to handle the dynamic, anytime anywhere accessibility of workloads in a cloud environment. To truly reap the benefits of a cloud strategy, you need to compliment it with a network that is intelligent, cloud-native, secure and still cost-effective. SD-WAN is your answer. Enter the Cloud Transformation Era Enterprises are…
