If you are a network or security practitioner, you might think you can build an effective security architecture by deploying a robust perimeter firewall. But the perimeter has become less effective due to mobile computing and workloads migrating to multiple clouds on the WAN side. And on the LAN side, malware coming from trusted users, rogue APs, and Shadow IT each add another micro-perimeter that you must also now defend. As a result, the fortified perimeter has become the sum of all of the micro-perimeters tied to the growing number of devices consuming networked services across all locations. Segmentation is a good starting point to deal with this, but it lacks adaptive trust and advanced security. In this session, you will discover the benefits of adopting this new approach and how you can build a robust and high-performance security architecture with intent-based segmentation. Intent-based segmentation intelligently segments IT assets in accordance with business intent, and employs adaptive trust, control, and automated threat protection to mitigate risks and achieve compliance with reduced complexity.
