Versa deepened its partnership with CrowdStrike with integrations aimed at solving siloed endpoint and network data.
CrowdStrike’s Falcon cybersecurity suite will see various integrations from the secure access service edge (SASE) vendor, involving both zero trust and telemetry. Zero Trust Assessment (ZTA) scores from CrowdStrike are now available in Versa’s policy engine, allowing users to continuously assess device posture and adapt network access policies in real time.
Falcon’s security information and event management (SIEM) platform will incorporate Versa’s network telemetry. Security operating center (SOC) teams can correlate network and endpoint data through the ingestion of more than 50 types of logs via the Falcon LogScale collector, including firewall events, application behavior, and SD-WAN metrics, to accelerate investigations and strengthen compliance.
The CrowdStrike integrations come after other recent partnerships for the California-based vendor. This summer saw Versa team up with Alcatel-Lucent for SD-WAN integration, as well as partnering with Swisscom to launch a combined networking and cybersecurity solution.
The firm was also last week rated a strong performer in Forrester’s latest SASE rankings.
CrowdStrike, meanwhile, recently released its first identity solution covering network identities of human users, machine accounts, and AI agents. The Texas-based firm also expanded its Zscaler partnership to further develop its security operations (SecOps) detail, building on ZTA capabilities.
According to Gartner, zero-trust network access (ZTNA) is seeing strong adoption among large and mid-market organizations, and the firm forecasts 10% of large enterprises will have a mature and measurable zero-trust program by 2026.
