SANTA CLARA, Calif.--()--Versa, the global leader in Universal Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), today announced it has passed an annual surveillance audit confirming adherence for the sixth straight year to ISO 27001 standards for information security management systems (ISMS). The company also announced it received a new ISO 22301 certification for the security and resilience of its business continuity management systems (BCMS). These certifications reflect Versa’s continued investment in maintaining the security and privacy of customer data and ensuring operational continuity by meeting the most rigorous international standards.

Information Security Management

ISO 27001 is the most recognized global framework for implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving an ISMS. This certification and recent validation through the successful surveillance audit reflect Versa’s systematic approach to managing sensitive data owned or handled by Versa, including robust measures in areas such as risk management, data protection, and governance to support the secure delivery of Versa’s Universal SASE services. The certification and validation prove the Versa system adheres to all the best practices and principles enshrined in the international standard.

Business Continuity

Versa has implemented a BCMS that conforms to the requirements of ISO 22301, which was developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to standardize the process for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, and maintaining a BCMS. This standard is crucial for organizations to enhance their resilience against various unforeseen disruptions, ensuring continuity of operations and services. It helps in identifying risks, preparing for emergencies, and improving recovery time. An extensive third-party certification audit was performed in two stages, the first to review Versa’s system and process documentation, and the second to evaluate the conformity and effectiveness of the actual implementation of Versa’s BCMS.
