Data breaches are on the rise, but are companies properly prepared for this growing threat? We surveyed 1,200 business owners to find out.
In our first year in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Network Firewalls, Versa has been placed as a “Visionary”. This comes as no surprise given that Versa has been a leader in the emerging Access Service Edge (SASE) market of which network firewalls are a critical component. This past year has been historic for Versa as we continue to invest and innovate with our product offerings; delivering unique and differentiated value to our customers and partners.
Gartner announced that Versa Networks is once again a Leader in the Magic Quadrant WAN Edge Infrastructure report. WAN Edge Infrastructure is defined as “products and associated functions that provide network connectivity across the WAN” that includes “incumbent and emerging vendors from adjacent markets (e.g., routing, security, WAN optimization and SD-WAN), each bringing differentiators and limitations. It also includes zero trust network access (ZTNA) functionality for remote workers in lieu of traditional virtual private network (VPN) solutions as part of SASE, which combines SD-WAN and cloud security into an integrated, orchestrated architecture.”
For all organizations, power outages, security breaches, or any accidents resulting in downtime can be extremely costly. Whether it’s an elementary school with lean IT, or a large global conglomerate, ensuring a rapid 5G rollout is crucial for an agile enterprise. As more organizations consider enabling 5G in their environment, here are some guidelines to follow for a seamless rollout.
Advanced initiatives can sometimes require large IT departments to research, design, build, and deploy. Not every enterprise has the resources and specialized staff to do this in a cost and time-efficient manner. MSPs (Managed Service Providers) can be very helpful in improving SASE deployment scalability when enterprises do not want or cannot implement SASE by themselves.
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.
Cyberattacks have been ranked as the fastest growing crime in the US. Secure Web Gateway (SWG), one of the five components of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is key to protecting users from web-based threats while applying and enforcing security policies consistently.
Versa Titan drives unique and differentiated value for Lean IT by: delivering SASE services in a single unified solution, combing full stack security with industry-leading SD-WAN, making it the easiest solution to deploy, configure, and manage SASE services. By simplifying IT, IT teams can focus on streamlining operations, achieving their organization’s mission, and driving business agility.
Last week, Microsoft released an important blog that details that details how HAFNIUM, a state-sponsored threat actor operating out of China, exploited Microsoft Exchange Servers with zero-day exploits along with other code execution vulnerabilities in the Sharepoint software. Microsoft advises that these patches are only intended to be a temporary fix. Customers are still required to update their software to the latest version and apply any relevant security patches to their server.
Contrary to how often SASE is presented as only a cloud-delivered solution, SASE is most commonly deployed as a blended implementation. As seen with the customer examples above, a number of them decided to deploy via the cloud and on-premises while others leveraged a 100% cloud model or a 100% on-premise model.
