OPSWAT MetaDefender SDK Extends Versa’s SASE Endpoint Capabilities for Zero Trust Enforcement to Reduce Attack Surface Risk
Dubai, United Arab Emiratse – June 13, 2025 – Versa, the global leader in Universal Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), has announced a technology partnership with OPSWAT, a global leader in critical infrastructure protection (CIP) cybersecurity solutions, to enhance the real-time device security monitoring capabilities of the Versa SASE Client.

The Versa SASE Client combines connectivity and security for users and their devices, enabling real-time best-path routing and the enforcement of dynamic security policies based on Zero Trust and continuously evaluated device security posture. As a result of this partnership, Versa has integrated OPSWAT’s MetaDefender Endpoint Security SDK into the Versa SASE Client, allowing IT teams to leverage real-time device posture data to automatically validate endpoints and enforce Zero Trust policies – helping to reduce 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.”
“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.”
The MetaDefender SDK is a cross-platform, versatile, and modular framework that serves as a powerful endpoint security software development platform, enabling software engineers and technology vendors to build advanced endpoint security products. The SDK’s Device Compliance Module enables software engineers to implement features in their products for a wide range of applications, including device posture assessment, as well as for potentially unwanted applications, allowing them to deliver better secure remote access, compliance, network access control, remote support, and other capabilities to their end customers.
