MetaDefender SDK Integration Strengthens Zero Trust Enforcement Across VersaONE Universal SASE Platform
In a strategic move to bolster endpoint security, Versa Networks has partnered with OPSWAT to integrate the MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK into its Versa SASE Client. This collaboration marks a significant advancement in real-time device posture assessment and Zero Trust policy enforcement.
Versa, a global leader in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), is known for its AI-powered VersaONE Universal SASE Platform, which unifies networking and security. With the integration of OPSWAT’s MetaDefender SDK, Versa now empowers IT teams to validate device compliance dynamically—before granting access to sensitive systems.
“With OPSWAT’s MetaDefender SDK, Versa customers gain the power to enforce Zero Trust at the endpoint—before threats ever reach the network.”

“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 platform, minimizing risk in cloud and hybrid environments.”
The MetaDefender SDK is a modular, cross-platform framework designed to enhance endpoint security. Its Device Compliance Module allows for comprehensive posture assessments, detection of potentially unwanted applications, and enforcement of security policies. This ensures that only compliant devices can access enterprise networks, reducing the attack surface and improving overall cybersecurity resilience.
Hamid Karimi, Vice President of Technical Alliances and OEM at OPSWAT, emphasized the significance of the partnership: “Our collaboration with Versa validates OPSWAT’s commitment to securing critical infrastructure. By embedding our endpoint compliance capabilities into Versa’s platform, we enable organizations to defend against evolving threats with confidence.”
The enhanced Versa SASE Client is now available as part of the Versa Universal SASE Platform. This joint solution represents a leap forward in secure remote access, compliance enforcement, and Zero Trust architecture.
