Dedicated resources for better customization and performance

Highest performance for you - today and tomorrow

Performance is crucial when selecting a firewall, as it directly impacts network security, user experience, and business operations. As your traffic grows, a high-performance firewall scales with you without needing constant upgrades. It supports deep packet inspection (DPI), intrusion prevention, and encryption without compromising speed. Conversely, a low-performance firewall can bottleneck remote connections, degrading user experience. Versa Networks led all Tier-1 NGFW vendors in independent testing, delivering the highest-rated throughput.

Highlights:

  • Highest rated throughput (an average of UDP, HTTP, and HTTPS Capacity) at 15,811 Mbps
  • Highest raw packet processing performance (UDP Throughput)
  • Highest efficiency of HTTPS vs HTTP capacity & throughput , which measures how encryption overhead affects the bandwidth for the provided payloads
  • Highest performance on the majority of ""real-world' single application flows

Additional data control

Best security effectiveness you need

Exploit protection, evasion resistance, stability/reliability are critical pillars of firewall security. In a recent independent evaluation, Versa Networks NGFW secured the highest ratings in all three categories among Tier-1 vendors. This success stems from its advanced intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) capabilities, which safeguard against ransomware and malware. Its Advanced Threat Prevention (ATP) technology excels at identifying and stopping zero-day and persistent attacks. Additionally, it ensures continuous web traffic inspection to block harmful content and applications effectively at scale.

Key Capabilities:

  • Comprehensive threat detection and prevention: Multiple IDS/IPS engines, antivirus, malware protection, URL filtering, DNS security, reputation-based algorithms, and signature-based detection
  • AI-powered ATP: Uses AI/ML, sandboxes, static/dynamic analysis, and UEBA, aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK framework
  • Continuous inspection of web traffic at scale - scans both unencrypted and HTTPS/TLS traffic (including TLS 1.3)
  • Data Loss Prevention (DLP): AI-driven content analysis to secure files, metadata, emails, and other content with predefined or custom DLP profiles.
  • Built-in protection for DoS attacks, Carrier-grade NAT (CGNAT), and Application Layer Gateway (ALG)

Application, device, and user visibility and control

Application, device, and user visibility and control

Firewalls rely on application, user, and device visibility and control to prevent data breaches, ensure compliance, and maintain network efficiency. Versa NGFW offers advanced application-layer security to safeguard your entire network against both known and unknown threats. It classifies and secures all traffic—no matter the user, device, or location—enhancing security, ensuring application availability, and improving the user experience.

Key Capabilities:

  • Database of 4,500+ applications with Inline visibility and control over both sanctioned and unsanctioned apps.
  • Seamless integration with leading Identity Providers (IDPs) for authentication and security access policies.
  • Device identification/fingerprinting and classification capabilities that recognize 1M+ IoT, OT, and BYOD devices with policy enforcement based on type, posture, and compliance
  • On-premises ZTNA for client and clientless deployments.
  • Built-in protection for DoS attacks, Carrier-grade NAT (CGNAT), and Application Layer Gateway (ALG)

Dedicated resources for better customization and performance

Benefit from the lowest cost of ownership

Organizations prioritize firewalls that meet their security needs and fit their budget. With forced hardware refreshes and steep renewal price hikes from most Tier-1 NGFW vendors, cost of ownership is now more critical than ever. According to an independent analysis , Versa NGFW delivers industry-leading security and performance while offering the lowest price per protected Mbps.

Highlights

  • The lowest price per Protected Mbps among all Tier-1 NGFW vendors as per an independent evaluation
  • CyberRatings believes a security device's value requires considering the relationship between price, performance, manageability, and security, so they take the Price/Mbps and divide it by the protection rate for the value metric. Versa NGFW has the lowest price per Mbps among all tier 1 vendors, as well as the highest protection rate
