Versa, the global leader in unified security and networking, has announced a new integration with Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) that simplifies and automates secure branch and campus connectivity. The integration connects Versa Secure SD-WAN with Zscaler ZIA to deliver fast, secure, and highly resilient access through intelligent point-of-presence (PoP) selection, automated tunnel creation, and self-healing capabilities.

  • Versa launches automated integration between Versa Secure SD-WAN and Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA).
  • Intelligent automation selects optimal primary and secondary ZIA PoPs for each site.
  • Automated workflows enable rapid secure tunnel provisioning and consistent policy application.
  • The integration eliminates manual site-by-site configuration for large-scale SASE deployments.
  • Organizations gain improved performance, stronger security, and higher availability across distributed environments.
  • The solution reduces operational complexity while accelerating Zero Trust architecture adoption.

As enterprises accelerate digital transformation and AI adoption, they require modern network and security architectures that do not increase operational complexity. Many large organizations already use Versa SD-WAN and Zscaler ZIA. This integration brings together leading SD-WAN and cloud security capabilities with automation that streamlines SASE deployment and operations at scale.

Simplifying SASE at Enterprise Scale

Traditional SASE implementations often involve multi-vendor environments configured in isolation, leading to manual PoP selection, static tunnel configuration, and routing challenges. These manual processes result in inconsistent performance, configuration drift, and slower troubleshooting.

The Versa and Zscaler integration replaces these manual processes with repeatable automation. Automated workflows intelligently select optimal primary and secondary ZIA PoPs, provision secure tunnels rapidly, and enforce consistent application policies across all locations.

"Traditional approaches to SASE integration rely on manual processes that fail to scale as enterprises modernize, adding complexity at a time when AI-driven applications are expanding the attack surface," said Rahul Vaidya, senior director of product management at Versa. “By automating how Versa Secure SD-WAN connects to Zscaler Internet Access, we are removing that friction, helping customers reduce complexity, improve performance, and strengthen security while scaling.”

“Versa’s automated integration with Zscaler Internet Access helps customers accelerate secure branch connectivity while reducing operational complexity,” said Justin Lau, director of technology ecosystem at Zscaler. “Automation plays a key role in helping organizations deploy and operate Zero Trust architectures more efficiently across distributed environments.”

The Versa Secure SD-WAN integration with Zscaler Internet Access is available today.
