Industry-leading Versa SASE for healthcare will be on display at the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society annual conference (HIMSS 2022) on March 15 – 17 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla., in booth No. 1731. Teams will demonstrate how Versa SASE enables healthcare IT leaders to create a more robust, reliable, and trusted network infrastructure, operating efficiently and safely to service both patients and medical staff. Versa uniquely delivers superior security, manageability, network operational efficiency, and performance, helping health IT leaders create and deliver affordable, world-class healthcare services for patients.

For attackers, the growing number of providers adopting online channels to provide patient care and consultation means increased device complexity on provider networks, which can be exploited in attacks. Providers must also consider how their employees access records and systems from their own devices and home networks, as well as how those devices and networks are segmented by access policies. As healthcare providers continue to deal with the ongoing COVID-19 crisis and the challenges unique to their ecosystem, malicious actors will continue to exploit security gaps and vulnerabilities.

By adopting the proper technology, resource constrained healthcare providers can navigate the challenges brought on by an expanding attack surface, necessary compliance adherence, and obscured network visibility, all while dealing with the new trends that drive patients toward online services.

“Healthcare organizations need to be fast and vigilant about how they design their network infrastructure,” said Ken Dengel, Senior Network Engineer at Advanced Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery. “For us, we needed a solution that not only transformed hundreds of legacy sites to offer speed and scale, but also did so in a highly secure manner. We evaluated many vendors and ultimately chose Versa SASE as the best solution to offer optimal and secure networking – protecting our organization from malware and bad actors while giving us the rapid deployment and application performance we needed for business optimization.”

Versa Secure Access Service Edge, or SASE, is a modern approach that combines security and networking services to enable seamless asset access for users. Versa SASE is the simplest and most scalable solution to secure millions of connected access points in and out of healthcare provider resources, regardless of their locations. Access to records and networks can now be governed with a complete technology stack that brings providers the advantages of a proactive, rather than reactive, security model.

“Cloud-based Health Management Systems (HMS), collaboration, and productivity applications provide a flexible, cost-effective, and agile model for supporting patients’ medical needs, while connecting remote health locations,” said Monnia Deng, Versa Networks Product Marketing Lead. “Versa SASE helps health organizations migrate to the cloud to achieve access to better IT services with improved security, without having to maintain an internal team of technical resources. Healthcare providers look to Versa SASE to realize complete security of patient records and other private information, superior application performance, reduced deployment times, and minimized cost and complexity of running their networks.”

Whether a healthcare provider decides to expand to new geographical locations by opening new branch offices, or through acquisitions and mergers, an organization’s IT team is critical in quickly bringing new locations on board. Versa SASE’s centralized administration and console make it easy to turn up new services and new locations, while adjusting policies remotely for immediate results, without having to worry about the cost, resources, and logistics associated with setting up a new IT infrastructure at a new location.

Furthermore, operating and managing point products by branch takes dedicated IT resources that are costly to upkeep. Versa SASE saves healthcare providers what could be intensive capital investment in disparate products and IT staff. With Versa, the administrative burden of procuring, installing, configuring, and managing these devices at each separate branch is removed. Instead, providers can manage all network and security operations through a single solution. This allows them to streamline security update rollouts, ensuring they not only stay ahead of emerging threat actors but also react quickly to any regulatory challenges that would result in fines and damages.

Versa SASE for healthcare delivers tightly integrated services via the cloud, on-premises, or as a blended combination of both via Versa Operating System (VOS™) with a Single-Pass Parallel Processing architecture and managed through a single pane of glass. Versa began delivering SASE services such as VPN, Secure SD-WAN, Edge Compute Protection, Next-Generation Firewall, Next-Generation Firewall as a Service, Secure Web Gateway (SWG), and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) more than five years ago. Versa uniquely provides contextual security based on user, role, device, application, location, security posture of the device, and content.

As the leader in the fastest growing security and networking category, SASE, and executing on SASE services for years, Versa is the only solution proven to deliver the industry’s leading and differentiated architecture for high performance and security. Gartner has identified Versa SASE as having the most SASE components out of all 56 vendors Gartner evaluated. Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) also found that Versa SASE has the most SASE supported functions, as published in its industry report.
