Join us for an enlightening webinar as we explore the research conducted for the Gartner Single Vendor SASE Magic Quadrant and Critical Capabilities reports. This session will provide a deep dive into the key trends shaping the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) landscape, anticipated market dynamics, and essential criteria for evaluating SASE vendors.

Exploring the Research Behind the Gartner Single Vendor SASE Magic Quadrant

Recently, Ivanti Connect Secure appliances and the Ivanti Policy Secure devices have faced active exploitation through a series of linked vulnerabilities of high or critical severity. On January 12, 2024, the following CVEs were published in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD): CVE-2023-46805 (high severity authentication bypass vulnerability) and CVE-2024-21887 (critical severity command injection vulnerability).

Currently these vulnerabilities impact all supported versions of the Ivanti gateways. More specifically, an exploit chain combining the authentication bypass vulnerability (CVE-2023-46805) and a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2024-21887) have been used to enable attackers to execute code remotely without authentication.

Subsequently, on January 31, 2024, two additional high severity vulnerabilities were disclosed by Ivanti and published to the NVD (CVE-2024-21888 & CVE-2024-21893), at which time CISA issued an emergency directive to all U.S. federal agencies to mitigate (i.e. disconnect) Ivanti Connect Secure and Ivanti Policy Secure products from their networks no later than 11:59 p.m. on February 2, 2024.

This session will talk about the current Ivanti Vulnerabilities, how these impacts both your business and the private sector, and how Versa Networks with our SASE solution can help to mitigate and/or potentially replace the Ivanti solution to strengthen your security architecture starting with our free 90-day trial.

In today’s rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, the right Security Service Edge (SSE) vendor is not just a choice—it's a necessity. With cyber threats becoming more sophisticated by the day, relying on an underperforming or outdated SSE vendor can leave your organization exposed and vulnerable. Security breaches, jacked-up prices, and high application latency/poor digital experience are clear signals that it might be time for a change.  

Join us for a compelling webinar where our cybersecurity experts will uncover the top 10 signs that indicate it’s time to reconsider your current SSE vendor. Learn to spot critical indicators of vendor inadequacy, from bolted together product suites with different UIs to lack of scalability, and gain the insights needed to make informed decisions about fortifying your security infrastructure.

Top 10 Signs You Might Need a New SSE Vendor

Have you ever been a victim of social engineering such as being phished, vished, or smished? Do you have a system in place if you were to be? Could you prevent unauthorized access and data exfiltration even if someone stole credentials through a social engineering exercise such as vishing? With a robust SSE solution an organization can be protected even from the most low-tech attacks. This webinar will go over some of the most common social engineering attacks, discuss why the weakest portion of the security infrastructure is the end user themselves, and how the Versa SSE solution can help prevent threat actors performing these low-tech attacks from gaining access and exfiltrating data from your organization.

How Versa Unified SASE detects and protects against social engineering attacks

Ransomware is one of the most active and dangerous threats facing organizations today. Unlike many other threats that are less stealthy with less impact, ransomware has become the tool of highly sophisticated and extremely organized financial predators around the globe.  
With average ransom demands skyrocketing to over $5 million per incident, these highly sophisticated stealth attacks can wreak financial havoc and bring a business to its knees. Ransomware incidents now account for over a third of all breaches combined, making comprehensive security a top priority for organizations of all sizes.  
No organization of any size is safe from ransomware. Organizations not prepared with the right defenses in place may find themselves facing financial and reputational harm that may be hard to recover from.

Stopping Ransomware with Multi-layered SSE Protection
