Sovereign SASE: Redefining Security and Control in the Era of Data Sovereignty
As enterprises and service providers navigate an increasingly complex regulatory and threat landscape, the need for a sovereign, secure, and scalable networking solution has never been greater. Versa Networks is leading the industry with Sovereign SASE, the first solution to deliver complete data, control, and operational sovereignty—ensuring compliance with national regulations while maintaining the agility of a cloud-first architecture.
In this session, Versa will provide a comprehensive business and technical deep dive into why Sovereign SASE matters, exploring the critical challenges enterprises face in securing data across distributed environments while adhering to sovereignty, compliance, and operational mandates. We’ll walk through Versa’s unique approach to flexible deployment models, covering on-premises, cloud, hybrid, and sovereign service provider-hosted architectures, all powered by the VersaONE platform.
Through a detailed architectural discussion and live demo, we’ll showcase how Versa’s Sovereign SASE solution enables organizations to:
- Ensure full control over data residency, encryption, and policy enforcement
- Achieve zero-trust security and performance at scale across a globally distributed workforce
- Deploy SASE as a service or as a private, sovereign cloud instance
- Optimize application performance while maintaining compliance with data localization requirements
Join us to see how Versa’s end-to-end, fully integrated SASE solution is empowering enterprises and service providers to own their network, security, and data—without compromise.
