Microsegmentation is a network security solution that isolates workloads and governs each one separately using policy-driven, application-level protection. These software solutions use network virtualization to divide and isolate different parts of data centers and cloud workloads, then deploy and protect them separately.  In addition to reducing visibility, detection, and remediation times, this aids businesses in better visualizing their assets and workloads. It also thwarts invaders...

In the past, network security was implemented in such a way that assumed user accounts that already had access to a network were trustworthy. However, the increasing popularity of cloud environments and remote work has created more opportunities for threat actors to gain unauthorized network access.  The problem with the traditional network segmentation model is that it only requires verification for users and systems outside...

The enterprise environments of today are characterized by multi-cloud and hybrid infrastructures, software-defined networks (SDNs), increased traffic, increased virtualization, and skyrocketing sophistication of threat actors. As a result, organizations are finding it more difficult to fully understand and control their network environments. Additionally, perimeter security techniques are increasingly losing effectiveness as attackers increase their impact by exploiting lateral traffic. Network segmentation and microsegmentation are two...

Microsegmentation is a network security approach that allows engineers to logically partition data centers into discrete security segments—right down to the level of each task—and apply security policies to each segment separately. Rather than establishing numerous physical firewalls, microsegmentation allows IT to set flexible security policies deep inside a data center. With microsegmentation, you can secure every virtual instance or virtual machine (VM), bare-metal server,...

Ransomware, which involves a threat actor encrypting a victim's computer files and then demanding a ransom for their decryption, is becoming more prevalent every year. Over the past year alone, ransomware attacks have increased by 105% globally. To avoid significant losses, businesses must put ransomware prevention measures in place.
