This latest survey is more confirmation that an oft-mentioned reality continues to be true – that the nature of threats keeps advancing and organizations frequently find themselves falling further and further behind.

The table below breaks down today’s complex attack surface into several categories, based on a framework presented by…
Versa Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) is a comprehensive cybersecurity solution designed to protect organizations from sophisticated threats across various vectors. Versa’s ATP detection reports are mapped directly to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, providing security teams a fingerprint of attacks, which can then be used for attribution to known adversaries, incident response, simulation attacks, and other security measures.
For the fifth consecutive year, Versa was recognized as a Leader in the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SD-WAN. We believe this is a testament to our Versa Secure SD-WAN solution’s ability to deliver a Zero Trust Branch that is secure, connected and resilient.
