Network Security Tip of the Week [25]

Continuing our recent focus on network segmentation, this week’s network security tip comes from Charles Riordan, Managing Consultant at Check Point:

“Build and deploy “for-purpose” specific security gateways based on a security zones approach, taking in zones’ access of greater trust the deeper one gets into the architecture. Look for and implement monitoring of these gateways from a security/compliance posture (status) in a 24×7 paradigm with alerting and reporting capabilities. Only deploy specific functional protections – thus eliminating over-use of resources, etc…”
