Versa Networks, a leading provider of Universal Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions, has announced a strategic technology partnership with cybersecurity firm OPSWAT to bolster real-time device security monitoring within the Versa SASE Client. This collaboration integrates OPSWAT’s MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK into Versa’s platform, allowing organizations to automatically validate device compliance and enforce Zero Trust access policies.
By embedding OPSWAT’s advanced endpoint compliance capabilities directly into the VersaONE Universal SASE Platform, the joint solution enhances protection for remote workers and BYOD users—key vectors in today’s distributed environments. IT teams can now leverage real-time device posture data to proactively assess risk and limit access for non-compliant or potentially vulnerable endpoints, effectively reducing the attack surface.
“Remote workers and BYOD users need access to critical business systems and data; however, this increases organizations’ threat risks if endpoint devices are not secure,” said Anusha Vaidyanathan, Senior Director of Product Management at Versa. “This partnership enables Versa customers to apply OPSWAT’s MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK directly within our VersaONE Universal SASE Platform. As businesses continue to operate in cloud and hybrid settings, this joint solution enables IT teams to minimize risk by verifying device security and compliance policies before granting access to secure company systems.”

OPSWAT’s MetaDefender SDK is a modular, cross-platform development framework designed for building powerful endpoint security tools. Its Device Compliance Module empowers software developers to integrate robust features like posture assessments and detection of potentially unwanted applications, enabling secure remote access and improved network access control.
“Our partnership with Versa validates OPSWAT’s commitment to securing critical infrastructure by integrating advanced endpoint compliance capabilities directly into the VersaONE Universal SASE Platform,” said Hamid Karimi, Vice President of Technical Alliances and OEM at OPSWAT. “With OPSWAT MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK, Versa customers can confidently ensure device compliance and security before network access, providing better defense against today’s evolving cybersecurity threats.”
As cyber threats evolve and hybrid work becomes the norm, this collaboration positions both companies at the forefront of secure access innovation—delivering scalable, intelligent, and adaptive Zero Trust enforcement for enterprises worldwide.
