Versa is One of Only Three SASE Vendors to be
Recognized in Gartner Magic Quadrants for Single-Vendor SASE,
SD-WAN, and Security Service Edge
Versa Networks, the global leader in AI/ML-powered Unified
Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and Software Defined WAN
(SD-WAN), today announced it is recognized in the Gartner Magic
Quadrant for Security Service Edge (SSE) which will help buyers
evaluate 10 key vendors, ideally in the context of a SASE strategy
and long before contracts are due for renewal. Versa is one of only
three SASE vendors to be recognized in Gartner Magic Quadrants for
Single-Vendor SASE, SD-WAN, and Security Service Edge.
According to Gartner, “By 2026, 85% of organizations seeking to
secure their web, SaaS and private applications will obtain the
security capabilities from a security service edge (SSE) offering.
Gartner defines security service edge (SSE) as a solution that
secures access to the web, cloud services and private applications
regardless of the location of the user or the device they are using
or where that application is hosted. SSE protects users from
malicious and inappropriate content on the web and provides
enhanced security and visibility for the SaaS and private
applications accessed by end users.”1
“We are pleased to be recognized as one of the 10 evaluated
vendors in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Service Edge,”
said Kelly Ahuja, Versa CEO. “Versa has been delivering network
security since the company was founded. We believe this report
highlights our position in the SASE market, as one of one of only
three SASE vendors to be recognized in Gartner Magic Quadrants for
Single-Vendor SASE, SD-WAN, and Security Service Edge.”
With tens of thousands of customers, hundreds of thousands of
sites, and a significant number of very large financial services,
retailer, manufacturer, high-tech, public sector, and healthcare
customers worldwide, Versa has demonstrated that it is the
innovator in delivering mission critical secure networking
solutions. Customers look to Versa to help them solve some of their
most challenging security and networking needs, including support
for hybrid work, multi-cloud connectivity, and mobile 5G and
