Confidently Segment Devices and Apply Zero Trust Policies with Enterprise IoT Security
Why Do You Need Network Segmentation?
Network segmentation is a tried and true technique used by security practitioners to address an assortment of issues in IT infrastructure environments. The main benefits of network segmentation include:
- Optimized network availability by localizing the impact of faults.
- Improved security hygiene by preventing the lateral movement of threats.
- Constrained scope of compliance audits (HIPAA, PCI, etc.) to a limited network segment.
- Limited data exfiltration by controlling access to critical data and intellectual property.
- Reduced attack surface for legacy or vulnerable systems performing crucial business functions.
