Microsegmentation
Microsegmentation
Microsegmentation is a network security technique that divides a network into smaller,
isolated segments to control traffic flow and increase security. The goal is to limit the
impact of a breach to the compromised segment.
Microsegmentation
Zero Trust Approach
Modern organizations operate IT assets in multiple physical, virtual and cloud networks accessed from various locations worldwide. Unlike traditional network perimeter-based methods, zero trust architecture restricts access to devices based on business justification, regardless of whether they are within the same data center or virtual network.
Microsegmentation
Prevent Lateral Movement
Unlike the so-called north-south network traffic that enters or exits a datacenter or a cloud virtual network, microsegmentation software controls the east-west traffic occurring within the network. This approach effectively protects critical assets from unauthorized lateral access by internal or external threats, even in the event of a security breach.
Microsegmentation
Secure Critical Assets
Mitigate risk by focusing on access security tailored to business needs, including considerations such as access type, user types, and operational environments.

Contain Breaches
While preventing security breaches is crucial, containing them promptly is equally vital. 12Port Platform for microsegmentation enables companies to effectively minimize the speed, spread, and impact of cyber-attacks.
Compliance
Microsegmentation plays a required role in ensuring compliance with a wide range of regulatory environments in various industries such as Financial (PCI DSS, SWIFT), Healthcare (HIPAA) and Government (GDPR, CISA).
