AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 12, 2026--

Sembi, the premier SaaS portfolio for testing and security solutions, today released its first-ever Software Quality Pulse Report, a global study examining how organizations are managing software quality, testing, and security in the age of AI. The report is an expanded continuation of TestRail’s previous four Software Testing and Quality Reports, containing insights from the full portfolio of Sembi enterprise quality and security brands.

Based on insights from nearly 4,000 QA engineers, security professionals, developers, and engineering leaders, the Software Quality Pulse Report examines key trends across software testing, application security, and the growing convergence between QA and security teams. The findings highlight a fundamental shift in how software is built and a growing gap in how it is validated, secured, and delivered.

“Over the past year, we’ve all seen just how quickly AI is changing the pace of software development,” said Christian Beatty, Vice President at Sembi. “Teams are moving faster than ever, but that speed is putting real pressure on how quality and risk are managed. Our research shows just how difficult it’s becoming to keep testing, security, and delivery aligned.”

Key Trends and Takeaways

The Software Quality Pulse Report’s findings point to a clear need for organizations to adopt “integrated quality operations,” where testing, security, and development are unified within an intelligence-driven system. As software systems become more dynamic and AI-driven, organizations can no longer rely on siloed approaches. Instead, they must align QA and security around shared goals, visibility, and accountability to effectively manage quality and risk at scale.

“AI has redefined what ‘quality’ means in software development,” said Judy Bossi, Vice President of Product at Sembi. “Teams are no longer testing for deterministic outcomes, they're evaluating probabilistic systems. Because of that, you can’t rely on traditional testing approaches. Quality becomes continuous and shared across teams, which requires new strategies, stronger governance, and much closer alignment among QA, engineering, and security.”

Drawing on deep expertise across its portfolio, Sembi brings a unique perspective on how modern teams build, test, and secure software at scale, and how those practices are evolving in response to AI-driven development. The Software Quality Pulse Report reflects both the challenges organizations face today and the direction the industry must take to manage quality and risk in the next phase of software development.

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 12, 2026--

Versa, the global leader in unified security and networking, today announced Versa Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), extending the VersaONE Universal SASE Platform to provide continuous visibility, prioritization, and remediation of cloud risk across environments. The announcement was made at Versa’s annual Versatility conference, held May 11–13, 2026, in Santa Clara.

With CSPM, Versa combines secure access protection and cloud posture risk on a single platform, delivering the visibility security teams need to quantify and reduce enterprise cyber exposure.

For years, security has evolved in silos. Access is protected, but cloud misconfiguration risk remains fragmented and hard to see. Access security alone is not enough. Versa CSPM adds continuous visibility into the cloud risks that cause most breaches.

From Secure Access to Unified Risk Intelligence

Versa CSPM continuously identifies, assesses, prioritizes and remediates misconfigurations and compliance risks across major multi-cloud environments, including Google Cloud Platform, Azure, AWS, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. It continuously evaluates cloud configurations in real time, checks them against widely used security standards, and prioritizes risks based on severity and exposure — not alert volume. Security teams can drill down from high-level dashboards to specific resources and remediation actions.

Combined with Versa Universal SASE, the platform brings cloud posture risk and access risk into a more unified operational view across the enterprise, helping close visibility gaps created by fragmented point tools.

"Cloud risk and access risk are two sides of the same exposure, and security teams cannot afford to manage them in separate tools," said Anusha Vaidyanathan, Senior Director, Product Management, Versa. "Most enterprises today look at access and cloud posture through entirely different consoles, with no shared context. Versa CSPM brings them together on a single platform, extending the VersaONE Universal SASE Platform with continuous cloud risk assessment alongside our existing access protection, so security teams can quantify and reduce enterprise exposure faster, with less complexity."
