Versa and Infoblox: Closing the Gap Between SD-WAN and DDI
SD-WAN and DDI have long operated as disconnected silos — leaving IT teams to manually configure branches, manage failover by hand, and diagnose IP conflicts without unified visibility. The Versa and Infoblox integration changes that with automated, template-driven workflows and built-in resilience.
5G as Primary WAN: Making 5G Enterprise-Ready with Versa Secure SD-WAN
5G as Primary WAN: Making 5G Enterprise-Ready with Versa Secure SD-WAN For years, 5G was treated as a backup connection, the link you activated when the main circuit went down, then ignored until the next outage. That made sense when cellular networks were inconsistent and performance was unpredictable. But that’s no longer today’s reality. 5G has matured into a viable primary WAN technology. The speeds are there. The coverage is there. What’s been missing is the management foundation to run 5G like a primary enterprise WAN connection: unified policy enforcement, multi-carrier flexibility, intelligent traffic steering, and end-to-end visibility. That changes…
Resiliency Is the New SLA: Why AI Demands an Always-On Intelligent Edge
For decades, we’ve measured the network in terms of uptime percentages and bandwidth tiers. In the AI era, those metrics are no longer enough. Resiliency, which is the ability to deliver uninterrupted, any-directional, application-aware connectivity in the face of unpredictable AI workloads, is the new SLA.
Reimagining the Edge: From Network Appliance to Application Platform
For years, the enterprise edge has been treated as a fixed-function domain, purpose-built appliances focused solely on connectivity and security. But that model is no longer sufficient. As applications become distributed, AI workloads move closer to users, and real-time processing becomes critical, the edge must evolve from a transport layer into a flexible, intelligent platform.
Zero Trust MCP Server: Securing the Future of Agentic AI
Versa’s Zero Trust MCP Server is the industry’s first patented solution built to secure every AI interaction, enforce governance, and enable safe Agentic AI adoption at scale.
Beyond Security: How Agentic AI is Redefining Infrastructure Operations
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping infrastructure operations. Much of the early focus has been on transforming security operations including automating threat detection, accelerating response times, and reducing security analyst fatigue. While these advancements are essential, they address only part of the problem. Modern enterprises operate highly distributed environments where network performance, application delivery, and user experience are just as critical as security. Limiting AI transformation to security operations alone is no longer sufficient. Enterprises today require a unified operational model that spans network operations, security enforcement, user experience, and infrastructure management. The real opportunity is not just to make security…
Automating Branch-to-Cloud Connectivity and Security: Versa Secure SD-WAN Integration with Zscaler Internet Access
We’re excited to introduce an automated integration between Versa Secure SD-WAN and Zscaler that makes dual-vendor SASE faster, secure and resilient. This integration helps you secure local internet breakout, improve user experience and simplify operations
Intelligent Edge: The Future of Branch and Campus in the AI Era
Distributed intelligent computing has arrived. Processing power, data, and intelligence are no longer confined to centralized cloud or data centers. Instead, they are distributed across data centers, cloud, edge locations, campuses, branches, and even devices. While prior phases of computing, internet, mobility, and cloud fundamentally reshaped how we live and work, this next phase is poised to have an even more profound impact.
Why SD-WAN Is Becoming Essential for AI Access in the Enterprise
AI applications are no longer tools used by a few teams for productivity or collaboration. They are rapidly becoming tools that help build core IT systems across every industry. From generative AI to NLP powered copilots to predictive analytics, enterprises are embedding AI into everyday operations, customer engagement and decision-making.
Achieve Zero Blind Spots with Versa’s Complete Branch Security that Protects Guest Wi-Fi and Beyond
Branches are surging back in prominence as hubs for users, applications, and a rapidly expanding IoT ecosystem. In this new branch paradigm, Guest Wi-Fi is no longer a convenience. It’s a non-negotiable requirement across retail, healthcare, hospitality, financial services, and much more. Unfortunately, this shift introduces a new mix of unpredictable user behavior, diverse applications, and thousands of devices to the branch infrastructure. This dramatically increases bandwidth demands and expands the attack surface where guest devices can bring malicious files, launch DNS-based threats, enable data exfiltration, or open compliance and privacy gaps. Industry research shows 70% of performance degradation and…

Norway reported a cyber intrusion at a dam in Bremanger that remotely opened a valve and released water at approximately 132 gallons per second for about four hours—roughly two million gallons in total—before operators intervened. No injuries or material damage were reported, but the incident highlighted how digital control systems in critical infrastructure can be manipulated and was noted as the first confirmed breach of Norway’s water infrastructure since 2022.

Why Enterprises Are Finally Ripping and Replacing Their Legacy SD-WAN—and Embracing Versa
By Rajesh Kari
Director, Product Marketing
September 10, 2025
For a long time, most enterprises treated deployment of SD-WAN as a replacement to their legacy routers in order to enable traffic engineering on multiple WAN links. They were still forced to manage point products like WAN optimizers, firewalls and legacy switches in addition to SD-WAN, hoping to deliver better connectivity and performance, without the pain of replacing them with a unified solution. Industry reports show that this was the norm across organizations – a phased transition instead of bold replacement.
