Real-World Testing Earns Versa SSE 99.96% Protection Rate and Versa ZTNA Maximum Achievable Score

SANTA CLARA, Calif.: #AAArating--Versa, the global leader in Universal Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), today announced that Versa Security Service Edge (SSE) and Versa Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) each received a “AAA” rating from CyberRatings.org, the highest score given by the independent testing lab. The ratings were based on two real-world evaluations, one independent test for SSE Threat Protection and one for ZTNA capabilities.

A complimentary copy of the CyberRatings Q4 Versa SSE report is available at https://versa-networks.com/resources/reports/cyberratings-org-independent-test-results-versa-sse/; and the CyberRatings Q4 Versa ZTNA report is available at https://versa-networks.com/resources/reports/cyberratings-org-independent-test-results-versa-ztna/.

Versa SSE Test Results

In addition to an overall Protection Rate of 99.96%, Versa SSE scored 100% in each test for Exploits, Evasions, and TLS/SSL Functionality. The product was thoroughly tested to determine how it handled TLS/SSL 1.2 and 1.3 cipher suites, how it defended against 205 exploits and 7,140 malware samples, and whether any of 1,124 evasions could bypass its protection. Versa SSE delivered this security with high performance, with HTTPS throughput peaking at 3,253 Mbps. Both clear text and encrypted traffic were measured to provide a more realistic rating based on modern network traffic.

Versa ZTNA Test Results

CyberRatings’ independent testing of Versa ZTNA resulted in all 100% scores for Authentication & Identity, Resource Access, Routing & Policy Enforcement, and TLS/SSL Functionality. The product was thoroughly tested to determine how it handled Authentication & Identity using Identity Providers, how the solution handled Resource Access by limiting and blocking access to private (“hidden”) networks, how it handled Routing & Policy enforcement, and support for TLS/SSL 1.2 and 1.3 cipher suites.

“Enterprises are increasingly seeking actual test results to validate the solutions they are considering, which is why objective, third-party evaluations are more important than ever,” said Apurva Mehta, Versa Co-Founder and CTO. “Independent product testing by CyberRatings.org and others ensures organizations can rely on proven data rather than potentially skewed narratives to make informed purchasing decisions.”

CyberRatings.org provides transparency and expert guidance on cybersecurity risks through research and independent, objective product testing. In Q4 2024, CyberRatings.org performed an independent test of the Versa Security Service Edge VOS 22.1.1 GA against the Security Service Edge (SSE) Threat Protection Methodology v2.1 using Amazon Web Services and CyberRatings’ Austin, Texas, lab. In Q3 2024, CyberRatings.org conducted an independent test of Versa Networks ZTNA VOS 22.1.1 GA against the Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) Test Methodology v2.0, using Amazon Web Services and CyberRatings’ facility in Austin, Texas.

“Versa consistently performs well in our real-world evaluations and this is reflected yet again in the latest CyberRatings.org SSE and ZTNA tests,” said Vikram Phatak, CEO of CyberRatings.org. “With both products earning the highest AAA rating we give, Versa SSE and Versa ZTNA are proven to be very reliable and effective. They should be on every organization’s shortlist.”
