Versa Powers Swisscom’s beem: The World’s First Sovereign SASE Connectivity Service

Versa announced that Versa Sovereign SASE is powering Swisscom’s newly launched beem, a converged networking and cybersecurity solution operated entirely within Swisscom’s infrastructure. This marks the debut of the world’s first telco-delivered, network-embedded SASE solution designed specifically for businesses of all sizes. beem unites security, data sovereignty, and internet connectivity into one seamless offering.

Unlike traditional cybersecurity approaches that depend on device-based agents or fragmented multi-vendor solutions, beem delivers integrated security natively through the network itself. This streamlined architecture empowers Swisscom to offer enterprise customers complete data sovereignty, centralized operational control, and end-to-end service level guarantees, ensuring consistent, high-trust protection at scale.

“With beem, Swisscom is redefining what it means to be a telco in the digital era,” said Apurva Mehta, Chief Technical Officer at Versa. “By integrating Versa’s Sovereign SASE natively into the Swisscom network, we’re enabling a new model of secure, high-performance connectivity that meets the growing demands for data privacy, regulatory compliance, and digital sovereignty. beem sets a blueprint for how telcos can deliver in-country, secure access services – from Zero Trust and SD-WAN to full-spectrum SSE – while simplifying operations for businesses of all sizes.”

“beem brings together the simplicity of network-based protection with the strategic control of sovereign infrastructure,” said Egon Steinkasserer, Chief Technology Officer B2B, Swisscom. “Powered by Versa, it allows us to offer integrated internet connectivity and cybersecurity services with full data sovereignty – so Swisscom customers get simple, sovereign, and secure connectivity.”
