In Q4 2024, CyberRatings.org performed an independent test of the Versa Security Service Edge VOS 22.1.4 GA against the Security Service Edge (SSE) Threat Protection Methodology v2.1 using Amazon Web Services and our Austin, Texas lab. The product was thoroughly tested to determine how it handled TLS/SSL 1.2 and 1.3 cipher suites, how it defended against 205 exploits, 7,140 malware samples, and whether any of 1,124 evasions could bypass its protection. Both clear text and encrypted traffic were measured to provide a more realistic rating based on modern network traffic.

Product ratings give decision-makers clear, forward-looking insight into the effectiveness of products tested. This report employs a letter rating system, which provides a forecast about a product’s capacity to meet its obligations to consumers over time. Products are assigned letter ratings ranging from AAA-D, calculated on a scale from 0 to 800. The highest rating of ‘AAA’ indicates that the product’s capacity to meet its commitments to consumers is extremely strong while a product rated ‘D’ is actively being breached by known threats and is unable to protect consumers. Ratings inform consumers, enhancing transparency and enabling them to focus on considerations that are most critical to their organizations.
