Versa Secure SD-WAN Integration with Microsoft Entra Internet Access Delivers Comprehensive SASE Solution

Combination of Leading SD-WAN and SSE Offerings Creates Complete, Easy-to-Manage Secure Networking Solution for Today’s Branch Offices

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Versa, a global leader in unified networking and security, today announced the availability of an automated integration of Versa Secure SD-WAN with Microsoft Entra Internet Access, a component of Microsoft’s Security Service Edge (SSE) solution, to create a complete, easy-to-manage SASE solution that delivers comprehensive security with optimized performance for today’s branch offices.

Unlike many template-based integrations, Versa’s application-aware SD-WAN is now one of the few SD-WAN offerings in Microsoft’s SASE partner ecosystem with an automated integration with Entra Internet Access. This eliminates the need for manual integrations with Microsoft Entra and automates the implementation of consistent networking and security policy enforcement across branch and remote networks, quickly providing organizations with the agility and control they need to access SaaS applications securely.

“Versa’s integration with Microsoft’s SSE solution delivers a unified, Zero Trust approach to networking and security that gives customers faster, more reliable access — all while keeping them safe. This enables seamless connectivity, robust protection, and optimized performance for our customers,” said Sinead O’Donovan, Vice President of Product Management, Identity and Network Access at Microsoft.

Rahul Vaidya, Senior Director of Product Management at Versa, emphasized, “Combining Versa Secure SD-WAN with Microsoft Entra Internet Access delivers a simple, fast, and scalable SASE solution for today’s branches to help customers secure their SaaS applications, including Microsoft 365 and Teams. As one of the few SD-WAN vendors who can currently deliver an automated SD-WAN integration with Entra Internet Access, we can now secure and optimize performance for Microsoft’s thousands of customers and their users with unmatched performance, reliability, and security.”

Overcoming Fragmented SASE Adoption

Enterprises today frequently face a fragmented path to SASE adoption. Networking and security are too often delivered through separate solutions that require complex, manual integrations. This disjointed approach results in inconsistent policy enforcement, unnecessary silos between networking and security teams, and limited end-to-end visibility. The outcome is higher latency, degraded application performance, and barriers to enforcing Zero Trust principles consistently across all users, devices, and applications.

Versa’s integration with Entra eliminates the complexity of manual integration, which requires stitching together disparate security and networking tools. By bringing secure networking and security into a single, integrated platform, customers gain simplified operations, consistent policy enforcement, and optimized performance with complete visibility. This empowers enterprises to extend Zero Trust protections seamlessly across every user, device, and application, and enables companies to confidently pursue business and AI transformation.
