Fighting Ransomware with Micro-segmentation | CTO Round Table

As time goes by, once effective firewall rules can become outdated. This results in bloated security policies which can slow down application delivery. Therefore, best practice and compliance requirements calls for rule recertification at least once per year.

While rule recertification can be done manually by going through the comments fields of every rule, this is a tedious process which is also subject to the weaknesses of human error. Automation can simplify the process and help determine which rules are still necessary, if done right.

Join security experts Asher Benbenisty and Tsippi Dach to learn about:

· Rule recertification as part of application delivery pipeline
· The importance of recertifying rules regularly
· Methods used for rule recertification
· The business application approach for rule recertification

Play by the Rules: Automation for Simplified Rule Recertification

Comprehensive Micro-Segmentation Strategy

Episode 3 of Keeping Up-to-Date with Your Network Security

Micro-segmentation allows you to isolate workloads, and secure them individually. In a world
that relies on computerization and automation, and in a world full of sophisticated cyber
criminals, micro-segmentation is key for tightening your network security. The ability to
tighten internal processes and procedures allows you to minimise the risk of threats, and
also target breaches before they can disrupt your network.

However, many businesses approach micro-segmentation in the wrong way, which can
cause issues for multiple layers of your security. For example, not having efficiently trained
staff, failing to map out existing application flows and failing to set up a firewall policy before
beginning the process of micro-segmentation are all common challenges and mistakes
made by security professionals on their micro-segmentation journey.

Given the benefits of a micro-segmentation strategy, it is worth understanding how to
navigate these common challenges, and move towards a more consolidated, secure
network.

In this session, we will discuss:
- What micro-segmentation is and what it can do for your network
- Why we need micro-segmentation now more than ever
- The common mistakes made when implementing micro-segmentation, and how to avoid
these common errors

Rescuing Your Network with Micro-Segmentation

You may use multiple network security controls in your organization, but chances are, they’re not talking to each other. And while you probably get alerts from SIEM solutions and vulnerability scanners, responding to them feels like a twisted game of whack-a-mole.

Micro-Segmentation: A Guided Tour from Strategy to Execution

Episode 1 of Keeping Up-to-Date with Your Network Security

Securing your data was once much simpler, and has grown more complex in recent years. In fact, the Covid pandemic has only revealed further weaknesses in tired security methods. As the workforce becomes more distributed, so does your data. Spreading your data across multiple public and private clouds complicates your network. While data used to sit behind lock and key in guarded locations, today’s data sits in multiple locations and geographies, and is made up of multiple public clouds, private clouds and other on-premises network devices. This is why managing your cloud journey can be tiresome and complicated. 

Enter cloud management. 

Cloud management enhances visibility across a hybrid network, processes network security policy changes in minutes, and reduces configuration risks. But how can you leverage your cloud management to reap these benefits? What does effective cloud management look like, and how can you achieve it when workloads, sensitive data, and information are so widely dispersed? 

In this episode we’ll discuss:
-  How to manage multiple workloads on the cloud
-  What successful security management looks like for today’s enterprises
-  How to achieve simple, effective security management for your hybrid network
