Real-time visibility into the traffic of users, devices, applications, and system to report, audit, forecast, and make insightful decisions.
Genuine Multi-Tenancy
The only SASE solution enabling total separation between every tenant extended to every branch site allowing for granular roles and segmentation. This fully multi-tenant system delivers separation at the management, controller, data, and analytics level, simulatneously supporting up to 256 tenants per system.
Policy-Based Automation
Apply consistent policy across the entire network and automate workflows to create network slices and implement security remediation steps. Versa Concerto is the orchestration platform that automates, updates, and upgrades VOS software and security packages system-wide to protect users, devices, and applications.
Deployment Options
Versa SASE is delivered via the cloud, on-premises, or as a blended combination of both and is a centrally managed solution. Versa management is a true multi-tenanted system with role based access control (RBAC) to provide separation between the tenants and can be deployed and consumed in a variety of models.
Three Key Differentiators with SASE
Versa SASE enables Enterprises to increase their bandwidth and cloud experience, improve flexibility, and decrease the cost of their legacy network all with an application-driven and software-defined solution. With Versa, Enterprises and Service Providers can expect:
Robust security, baked right into the network.
Versa embedded security, certified by NSS and ICSA Labs, is the only cloud-native software platform that integrates next-generation firewall (NGFW) and unified threat management (UTM) services covering end-to-end software-based security functions in a single and unified software platform.
Seamless integration with your existing network.
With Versa, Enterprises can now leverage the cost advantages, flexibility, scalability, and ease-of-access provided by commodity Internet links connecting to multiple clouds, without worrying about the security, performance, and reliability of mission-critical data being compromised.
Application performance and reliability.
Versa delivers reliable, high-bandwidth connectivity with a full-featured SASE solution that gives you everything you need for top-notch application performance. In addition, Versa’s application-driven intelligence optimizes traffic steering for on-premises and cloud workloads to deliver high speed and low packet loss.
Benefits of Versa SASE for Enterprises
Simplify
Eliminate the sprawl and complexity of physical and virtual appliances with Versa’s multi-service software platform that integrates networking and security.
Accelerate
Speed up deployment and automate operations with zero touch deployment, policy-based control and life-cycle management.
Reduce Costs
Reduce costs significantly by software-defining the branch, network, and security infrastructure and using a dynamic policy-driven model over a hybrid WAN.
What is SD-WAN (Software-Defined WAN)?
Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) is a transformative technology that simplifies the IT infrastructure control and management by delivering a virtual WAN architecture that securely connects users to their applications.
The hallmarks of SD-WAN are simplified branch office connectivity, increased reliability, optimized application performance, and increased network agility. SD-WAN lowers total costs, by providing more resource usage and a more automated branch and WAN architecture that is required to fulfill modern IT business initiatives.
SD-WAN aggregates diverse network circuits, like broadband, DIA, and LTE. These circuits can be added to existing MPLS to create a hybrid network, or they can be an alternative to MPLS using all-Internet wired and wireless connections.
What are the Benefits of Secure SD-WAN?
Secure SD-WAN adds features that provide a self-healing architecture all while natively inserting network and security functions into the WAN. Secure SD-WAN accomplishes this by being application user-experience driven, monitoring the applications and network, and improving and increasing the SD-WAN security posture with an integrated platform. Driven by application-based policies, the WAN and branch dynamically adapt to ensure network uptime, application reliability, and optimal user experience all while protecting the organization from threats and vulnerabilities.
Benefits and advantages specific to Versa Secure SD-WAN:
Secure multi-cloud connectivity that supports cloud-to-cloud, branch to multi-cloud, and business to multi-cloud.
Secure private/public cloud connectivity, regardless of cloud platforms, applications, and transports.
Embedded and robust next-generation security features such as Universal Threat Management and Role-Based Access Control.
Full multi-tenancy for micro-segmentation of line of business, tenant, and control, with unique policies per segment.
Micro-segmentation across the entire network to reduce risk zones and lateral movement.
Context-based network and security policies, and traffic steering, based on users, devices, locations, and applications.
How SD-WAN Solves Modern IT
Network Challenges
Cloud, virtualization, mobility, IoT, and the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning are all contributing massive amounts of traffic and data over enterprise WANs. Unfortunately, they are also creating network reliability and performance challenges and causing security breaches by exponentially expanding the attack surface.
These technologies have created the need for a simplified and consolidated IT infrastructure. Robust cloud-native VNF-based network and security services are needed in the service provider core, or central enterprise IT infrastructure, and within the network edges.
Secure SD-WAN technology enables flexibility to be deployed as the uCPE platform to host other services, or as a VNF on a third-party uCPE or virtualization platform. Secure SD-WAN has the routing, SD-WAN, analytics, security, and more, all within a single software platform.
This SD-WAN solution provides a cohesive, virtualized network, and a multi-layered security approach that eliminates siloed, single-function appliances that add unnecessary risk, complexity, and cost.
