Our take
What our shortlists say about each one.
- Silverfort Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR)
Best for: Companies that want to block risky logins inline
Silverfort is the standalone pick for prevention, because it can stop a risky login instead of only raising an alert. That fits you if you need MFA on old systems and protocols that never supported it. Since it sits in the sign-in path, plan how you test and roll it out so a wrong block does not lock out real users.

- Versa Next Generation Firewall
Best for: Enterprises needing deep IoT and OT device visibility alongside NGFW
The deployment flexibility is real: cloud, virtual, and on-premises with a unified management console and zero-touch provisioning. The ZTNA capability is on-premises, which is less common than cloud-delivered ZTNA and suits organizations that need ZTNA without routing traffic through a vendor's cloud. The integration surface is broad, covering IAM, SIEM, SOAR, DLP engines, and encryption engines through native and API connections. The trade-off is that Versa is less well-known than Palo Alto, Fortinet, or Cisco, which means smaller community resources and potentially longer vendor support response times.
