🚀 Networks are on the verge of a massive shift. Versa’s CMO, Dan Maier, recently shared his perspective on how Agentic AI will redefine NetOps — moving from manual, reactive operations to autonomous, self-optimizing infrastructure. The difference this time? ✔️ Agents that plan, decide, and act within guardrails ✔️ Context that compounds through continuous learning ✔️ Real-time speed without fatigue With Versa’s MCP Server, we’re building the command-and-control layer for Agentic NetOps — integrating LLMs, VersaONE telemetry, and your tools to deliver: 🔹 10x faster incident resolution 🔹 Policy-driven consistency across SASE, SSE, SD-WAN, and SD-LAN 🔹 A foundation for truly self-protecting networks 👉 Check out Dan’s full post and see how Versa is making this vision real: https://lnkd.in/gy8Pj73C #AgenticAI #NetOps #AI #VersaNetworks #Networking #SASE
Most enterprises still run networks the way they did a decade ago. Manual processes. Risk-averse change control. Endless “eyes on glass.” That’s about to change. Agentic AI — autonomous, goal-driven AI agents — is set to redefine NetOps from reactive firefighting to real-time, self-optimizing infrastructure. Gartner analysts Jonathan Forest and Andrew Lerner recently published “Agentic NetOps Will Revolutionize Network Operations” (subscription required) that describes the potential of Agentic AI to dramatically accelerate and improve network operations decision-making to near real time. Here’s what’s different this time: • Humans out of the loop → Agents plan, decide, and act within policy guardrails • Context that compounds → Agents learn from telemetry, events, and outcomes over time • Speed without fatigue → No waiting for tickets, meetings, or shift changes With Versa’s new MCP Server, we’re working on making this vision real. It becomes the command-and-control layer for Agentic NetOps — integrating large language models (LLMs), VersaONE telemetry, and your existing tools to: → Dynamically adjust network configuration to optimize performance and cost → Find and fix complex network problems across multiple devices and systems → Detect and automatically respond to security anomalies in near real time → Accelerate network design and configuration tasks → Validate and maintain accurate configurations across vendors → Audit policies and rulesets for overlaps or conflicts, then recommend and apply fixes The opportunity? • 10x faster incident resolution • Consistent, policy-driven actions across SASE, SSE, SD-WAN, and SD-LAN • The foundation for a truly self-protecting network Agentic AI isn’t just another automation tool. It’s the next operational model. And the enterprises who start building with it now will own the future of network reliability, security, and agility.

Shadow IoT is one of the fastest-growing — and most overlooked — attack surfaces in enterprise networks. Check out our CMO Dan Maier’s post on why unknown devices are a potential breach waiting to happen — and how forward-thinking security teams are closing the gap with continuous device fingerprinting, microsegmentation, and Zero Trust enforcement. Because you can’t secure what you can’t see. #IoTSecurity #ZeroTrust #SASE #CyberSecurity #VersaNetworks
Most enterprises are blind to one of the fastest-growing attack surfaces in their network... Shadow IoT. It’s not the devices you know about that get you breached. It’s the ones you don’t: → Unapproved smart TVs in conference rooms → Personal assistants brought in by employees → Unsecured sensors in warehouses → Random Wi-Fi printers on guest networks Here’s why Shadow IoT is such a problem: No visibility → These devices bypass asset inventory systems entirely Weak security → Many ship with default credentials and no patching process Uncontrolled access → They connect to corporate networks without policy enforcement And the risk isn’t hypothetical. A compromised smart device can become: → A pivot point for lateral movement → A launchpad for DDoS attacks → A data exfiltration channel hiding in normal network traffic The fix? Forward-thinking security teams are moving beyond device discovery lists and implementing: • Continuous device fingerprinting at the network edge • Microsegmentation to limit what any device can access • Zero Trust enforcement for every endpoint — even “headless” IoT nodes The result? → No more mystery devices roaming the network → Contained risk from insecure endpoints → Measurable reduction in IoT-related incidents Because you can’t secure what you can’t see. And in 2025, every unknown device is a potential breach in waiting.
