Zero Trust Segmentation for Dummies

Zero Trust Segmentation (ZTS), also called microsegmentation, stops the spread of breaches and ransomware across the hybrid attack surface, allowing you to extend consistent Zero Trust across your cloud, on-premises, and endpoint environments.

With ZTS, you can:

• Get complete visibility into assets and traffic flows to better understand and prioritize risk.
• Protect high-value applications and data by restricting access to only that which is critical and necessary.
• Proactively isolate critical assets or reactively isolate compromised systems during an active attack.

Trusting nothing

With the Zero Trust security model, every interaction between people, workloads, networks, data, and devices must be verified before it can proceed. The principle of least privilege grants devices and users only the minimum access needed to get the job done.

Appreciating segmentation

A foundational element of Zero Trust is putting network security controls in place that break larger networks into smaller pieces. This is known as segmentation.

Segmentation is essential to helping stop attacks from moving laterally across environments. With a segmented network, a small security incident is contained to the place where it happened, so it won’t turn into a bigger security disaster.
