Application visibility, threat protection and data protection – all in one

The world’s most sophisticated businesses increasingly rely on the Versa Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) to secure their networks, with global deployments supporting some of the most complex and demanding companies in the world. Versa NGFW has been rigorously tested and validated in real-world comparative testing by CyberRatings, and has been proven to deliver a powerful blend of advanced threat protection, application visibility, routing and access control, and robust data protection, all in one integrated platform.

Application, user and device visibility and control
  • Detailed visibility into your applications with a database of over 4,500 applications and granular controls, enabling intelligent security decisions and more precise control over your network and application traffic.
  • User and group-based access control is enabled through integration with leading Identity Providers (IdPs) and the use of user and group details for security and access policies.
  • IoT device identification and fingerprinting that recognizes over 1 million IoT/OT/BYOD devices and enforces policies based on device type, posture, and compliance.
  • Inline app visibility and control for sanctioned and unsanctioned apps.
  • On-premises ZTNA for client and clientless deployments.

Threat and data protection
  • Detect and Prevent ransomware and malware threats using multiple IDS/IPS engines, anti-virus and malware protection engines, URL filtering, DNS security, reputation-based algorithms, and signature-based detections.
  • AI-powered advanced threat protection (ATP) to detect and prevent zero-day threats using AI/ML, sandboxes and static/dynamic analysis and UEBA that aligns to the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
  • Continuous inspection of web traffic to block inappropriate content and applications at scale for unencrypted and HTTPS/TLS traffic (including TLS1.3) as independently validated by CyberRatings.org.
  • Data protection policies to perform rich AI-powered content analysis to secure files, metadata, emails and content with predefined or custom DLP profiles.
