Versa Networks, the recognized leader of single-vendor Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), today announced that it has been recognized as a 2023 SC Award finalist in the Trust Award category for Best SASE Solution. The announcement was made as part of SC Media’s 2023 SC Awards coverage. Now in its 26th year, the SC Awards program is cybersecurity’s most prestigious and competitive program, recognizing the solutions, organizations, and people driving innovation and success in information security.

“It is an honor to be recognized by the SC Awards Program panel of judges as one of today’s best SASE solutions, in what is widely considered to be the security industry’s most important annual recognition program,” said Dan Maier, CMO for Versa Networks. “More and more organizations today are moving their infrastructure to the cloud and making hybrid work permanent, as they push themselves to become more agile and competitive. Versa helps deliver needed agility with a secure networking platform that simplifies how organizations protect and connect their users, devices and sites. Our cloud-native products were built from the ground up to work together on a single operating system, tightly integrating comprehensive security and networking functionality. This approach has helped thousands of customers transform their networks, while reducing their risk, costs, and complexity.”

Hundreds of entrants vying for Trust Awards were judged by a panel of industry leaders, from sectors including healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, consulting, and education. Winners will be announced during SC Awards week, scheduled to begin on August 21, with individual profiles of every winner. Coverage will also include Winners Circle virtual roundtables and candid on-camera conversations between the SC Media editorial team and SC Award recipients about critical aspects of the evolving information security landscape.

This year’s list of finalists reflects both the robustness and agility of solutions used by network defenders to protect assets within an always shifting threat landscape.”
