Security and networking teams increasingly face security challenges when securing hybrid, on-prem and cloud environments, making it essential to integrate identity-first security controls in their SASE deployments as the gatekeeper. This blog highlights simple tenets observed across our customers ranging from large enterprises to small companies.
Versa announced last week the general availability of Versa Sovereign SASE – it’s the culmination of work done with early adopters over the past two years, including already-up-and-running deployments by organizations in the defense, financial services, maritime, energy, and retail industries. This also includes several service providers who’ve announced their own SASE offerings riding on a Versa Sovereign SASE implementation – like T-Mobile SASE, Tata Communications Hosted SASE, Lumen SASE, and Crown Castle SASE.
Today, Versa is announcing the VersaONE Universal SASE Platform. VersaONE enables organizations to create self-protecting networks that radically simplify and automate their network and security infrastructure. Powered by AI, the platform delivers converged SASE, SSE, SD-WAN, and SD-LAN solutions that securely connect all users, devices, workloads, and networks through a unified platform.
The industry news of the day is that Gartner simultaneously published the 2024 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for SD-WAN along with its more granular 2024 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for SD-WAN companion report ranking for specific use cases.
Understanding the cyber attack surface Historically, the “attack surface” was limited to well-known points of external exposure—the traditional perimeter of websites, external IP addresses, and endpoints. Our cyber attack surface has expanded dramatically over the past five years, now encompassing our cloud estate, millions of devices at the edge, and mobile and remote workers, in addition to our internet-facing infrastructure. This expansion of the definition to include cloud, end-user, and internal assets has been driven by the increasing sophistication of cyber attacks. The table below breaks down today’s complex attack surface into several categories, based on a framework presented by…
In today’s hyper-connected digital landscape, enterprises need to have a robust and cost-effective Security Service Edge (SSE) solution to combat increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and to support digital transformation.
The future will rely on an authentically Unified Zero Trust Networking platform – a singular, integrated platform meticulously crafted to seamlessly converges networking and security. What must Zero Trust Networking deliver?
This article is structured as a two-part blog series. The first part explores the evolving digital landscape. We’ll discuss the limitations of traditional security and networking models in the face of a hybrid environment that seamlessly interconnects WAN, LAN, Cloud, and Data Center. The second part introduces the concept of Zero Trust Networking – an approach to address the nuanced challenges of modern enterprises by seamlessly integrating security and networking components across WAN, LAN, Cloud, and Data Center. The Need for Zero Trust Networking Digital transformation and an increased cyber threat landscape is rapidly evolving the needs of a cloud…
For years, Versa and Intel have partnered on innovations that have continually pushed the boundaries of what has been possible in our industry. Building on these efforts, we are excited to share a sneak peek of our Versa Secure SD-NIC at Intel Innovation 2023 on September 19-20.
