Rethinking Remote Access: Replacing VPNs with Zero Trust Network Access
Live Webinar (March 12, 2026 @ 8 AM PT)
With
Dhiraj Sehgal, Senior Director, Product Marketing and Padmanabhan, Sr. Systems Engineer
The way users access applications has fundamentally changed, but many organizations are still securing remote access with legacy VPNs designed for on-premises networks. As these VPN solutions near end of life (EOL), small and midsize enterprises are left with increasing exposure to security blind spots, higher operational overhead, and inconsistent user access—especially in hybrid and SaaS-first environments.
In this session for security architects, engineers, and IT leaders, we’ll examine how Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) delivers secure, application-centric access without the limitations of traditional VPNs—and why it is the natural first step toward a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture.
Attendees will learn:
- Why VPN-based remote access no longer aligns with cloud and hybrid operating models
- How ZTNA enables least-privilege, identity-aware access to applications
- The ZTNA capabilities that matter most when planning a long-term SASE strategy
- How unified ZTNA supports continuous trust through user identity, device posture, and inline threat inspection
- A practical migration path to replace VPNs with ZTNA—without disrupting users or operations
Join the Versa team to learn how organizations are transitioning from VPNs to ZTNA ahead of EOL timelines—improving user experience, reducing operational complexity, and strengthening their security foundation on the path to SASE..
