SASE made a promise.
Most vendors broke it.

Security and networking were supposed to converge into a single, unified platform. Instead, the market delivered acquisitions bolted together with APIs — and called it convergence.

VersaONE is the only SASE platform built from the ground up to fully deliver on the promise of unified security and networking.

The problem with SASE today

Why most SASE platforms aren’t actually unified

SASE was defined in 2019 as a convergence of networking and security into a single cloud-native platform. The promise was architectural. But most vendors arrived at SASE the same way: through acquisition. The result is products stitched together via APIs, sold under a single brand — but running on separate codebases, separate policy engines, and separate data lakes.

Assembled SASE

  • Multiple acquired products, unified by brand only
  • Separate codebases, separate policy engines
  • API connectors masquerading as integration
  • Operational gaps between security and network functions
  • Vendor lock-in from multiple legacy product lines

Universal SASE

  • Single operating system underneath all capabilities
  • One policy engine, one data lake, one console
  • Security and networking share the same context
  • No integration gaps — functions are natively aware
  • Any deployment: cloud, on-prem, sovereign, hybrid

UNIVERSAL SASE DEFINED

Universal SASE means a single software platform, built on a unified operating system, that delivers security and networking from the same policy engine and data lake — deployable in any environment, governed through a single console, without operational compromises.

Meet VersaONE

VersaONE unifies networking and security in a single operating system, policy engine, and data fabric to seamlessly and securely connect all your users, devices, offices, branches, and edge locations to all your workloads, applications, and clouds.

A unified platform with comprehensive telemetry and built-in AI that automatically extracts insights to identify, predict, and diagnose issues. Address security threats and network performance challenges in real time at every edge.

A unified platform built on a Zero Trust foundation. Secure access, threat protection, and data protection baked in at every edge. Dynamic posture assessment and consistent enforcement helps reduce your risk.

A unified platform with one console, one policy, one data lake, and one OS.
Versa One Platform

Three pillars. One platform.

VersaONE delivers security and networking through three integrated capability pillars — not three separate products. Because they share the same OS, policy engine, and data lake, each pillar makes the others smarter.

Universal connectivity

AI workloads deploy where they make business sense: sovereign clouds for regulated data, on-premises for latency-sensitive processing, edge locations for real-time decision-making, cloud for scalable training. All secured by the same platform.

Universal security

One policy engine governs protection everywhere. Threat intelligence discovered in one deployment protects all deployments instantly. No handoffs between separate products. No gaps where networking ends and security begins.

Universal management

Autonomous operations learn from every deployment, predict issues across the entire infrastructure, and adapt without requiring teams to manually tune thousands of configurations.

Universal SASE for AI

You’ve governed your users. Now govern your agents.

AI agents don't behave like users. They generate new traffic patterns — Agent-to-model, Agent-to-tool, Agent-to-agent — that existing security architectures weren't built to inspect, authenticate, or control.

Cloud-delivered

Global PoP network with elastic scale and cloud-native operations

On-premises

Full platform capability without cloud dependency — for air-gapped or regulated environments

Sovereign

Data residency guarantees, jurisdictional isolation, and local key management

Hybrid

Cloud and on-prem, unified under a single policy and management plane

The world’s most demanding networks run on Versa

10,000 Branches+

A F100 retailer saved millions per year by replacing a fragmented mix of MPLS circuits and security point products with Versa's Universal SASE platform.

  • Replaced costly MPLS with hybrid broadband/LTE/satellite connectivity across thousands of stores, consolidating routing, security, and switching onto a single in-store device
  • Delivered rapid, zero-touch rollout across thousands of sites, with built-in multi-cloud connectivity to Azure and AWS — cutting overhead, lowering TCO, and eliminating failed POS transactions.

1 billion transactions per day

A global financial technology company processing non-cash transactions across 100+ countries replaced its legacy hub-and-spoke MPLS architecture with Versa Secure SD-WAN — eliminating multi-continent routing detours in favor of direct, intelligent point-to-point traffic flows.

  • Slashed latency by collapsing inefficient global routing paths, so transactions travel directly between endpoints rather than bouncing across continents
  • Cut deployment time significantly with zero-touch provisioning, accelerating new site rollouts and revenue recognition

$300 million

The U.S. Department of Defense trusts Versa to secure its Thunderdome initiative—the gold standard for Zero Trust SASE.

  • $300 million in taxpayer savings by reducing licensing fees, eliminating duplicate systems across agencies, and cutting the labor
  • Thunderdome cleared 152 out of 152 zero-trust capability benchmarks—meeting the Pentagon’s highest standard for cyber readiness
