What is Microsegmentation?
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,...
