Versa extends Zero Trust access and inline full-stack security to IoT and OT devices in any environment or geography.
Explosive growth in IoT and the digitization of OT machinery in factories, warehouses, and across the supply chain, coupled with the changing threat landscape, has forced a rethinking of how enterprises connect and secure devices on their networks. IoT/OT devices are frequently softer targets for hackers and represent a risk for staged attacks due to the difficulty of extending standard IT security controls to them, the challenges of timely updates and patching given their specialized and diverse nature, and the limited visibility into and control of such devices provided by traditional security and networking management tools, especially when they are deployed in remote locations.
Automatically identify and fingerprint over one million different types of devices that are then mapped to device types and risk profiles to ease overall device management tasks.
Through secure, identity aware Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) you can ensure that only authorized users and systems can connect to devices from any location, whether from the corporate network, at home, or while traveling.
Get advanced, seamless authentication for IoT and OT devices that connect via traditional (2G to 5G) or IoT-specific cell technologies (LTE-M, NB-IoT, etc.) with Versa’s patented SASE-on-SIM solution, bypassing the need to deploy and manage specialized security clients.
Deploy remote enforcement nodes at the network edge to provide malware protection, URL and content filtering, intrusion prevention, User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA), and other advanced security capabilities to actively monitor and filter traffic and detect and respond to threats in real time targeting your IoT and OT devices and networks.
Versa lays the foundation for superior visibility into and security for IoT and OT operations with automated discovery of all devices, “first packet” identification of specialized IoT and OT applications and protocols by Versa’s advanced DPI engine, and precise device fingerprinting. Our comprehensive approach to security includes applying Zero Trust access principles, continuous behavioral monitoring, layers of advanced security inspection, and dynamic micro-segmentation to contain any possible compromise and staged attacks. Versa IoT Security is delivered over our VersaONE universal SASE platform, along with full SASE, SSE, and SD-WAN services, delivering visibility, security, and connectivity with simplicity.
Benefit from the real-time discovery of connected devices, enabling you to maintain an up-to-date inventory of all IoT and OT devices on your network, while Versa’s DPI engine and URL filtering engine provide deep visibility into the network activity of any device without the need for installing a security client, including a rich set of IoT and SCADA protocol signatures.
You can dictate how traffic from specific IoT and OT devices should be handled based on factors like the device and application class, data type, and device security posture rating. This includes seamlessly steering traffic based on real-time network conditions and least-cost routing considerations across broadband, MPLS, cellular, or satellite networks.
Versa provides Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) protection specifically tailored for IoT devices, leveraging advanced traffic identification and control mechanisms across multiple layers of the network, while NG-IPS protects OT networks and IoT devices through both signature-based and anomaly-based detection mechanisms.
Protect your devices and networks against sophisticated malware and Zero Day attacks with an intelligent blend of AI-driven file analytics and multi-sandboxing. Continuous monitoring and real-time threat intelligence ensure that threats are identified and mitigated before they can cause harm.
Customize dashboards and set alerts to monitor the health and security of your OT and IoT environments effectively and use Versa platform tools to generate detailed security and compliance reports offering insight into network security posture, incident responses, and audit trails.
The VersaONE platform converges networking and security for scalable, easy-to-deploy IoT and OT protection that can be implemented in phases and grows with your device network, simplifying the addition of new devices without extra security overhead.
Versa provides superior visibility to IoT devices in the network through automated device discovery, advanced application identification, precise device fingerprinting, and continuous behavioral analysis.
Grounded in a Zero Trust framework and advanced threat detection capabilities, Versa’s IoT and OT security significantly reduces the risk of breaches and data loss, while micro-segmentation isolates any compromise and prevents lateral movement.
Versa’s universal SASE platform scales IoT security seamlessly according to your needs, accommodating growth in IoT devices and critical OT system implementations without sacrificing performance or security.
