Enterprises are flocking to the cloud because of the agility and ease with which business applications can be deployed there. However, the cloud is based on a software-defined security architecture that is fundamentally different from that of physical networks. As a result, security, network operations and application teams are struggling to identify and then migrate the necessary application connectivity flows to the cloud security controls, and then manage network security policies cohesively across their entire hybrid enterprise environment. It’s currently a complex, tedious and error-prone process that compromises security, compliance and business agility.
Seamlessly manage network security across your hybrid cloud environment
AlgoSec automatically discovers, maps and then migrates application connectivity to the cloud, through easy-to-use workflows that maximize agility. Prior to making any changes, AlgoSec assesses all proposed network security policy changes for risk, to ensure secure network access and avoid application outages and compliance violations. Once application connectivity is migrated, AlgoSec delivers unified security policy management across traditional and next-generation firewalls deployed on-premise and across public cloud security controls, including AWS and Microsoft Azure, and private cloud/SDN including Cisco ACI and VMware NSX.
With AlgoSec you can:
- Automatically discover and map application connectivity prior to migration
- Migrate application connectivity to the cloud through easy-to-use workflows
- Automatically define, generate changes requests, and apply on-premise network security policies directly onto the cloud security controls
- Get a single pane of glass to manage on-premise firewalls alongside cloud security controls
- Automate security policy management to process changes at the “speed of cloud”
- Assess risk and generate compliance reports for the entire hybrid environment
- Securely decommission redundant connectivity for a tighter security policy
The Business Impact:
- Quickly and securely migrate application connectivity to the cloud
- Minimize business disruption and avoid application outages during and after the migration
- Unify security policy management across the hybrid enterprise cloud environment
- Automate security policy change management to eliminate misconfigurations and outages
- Ensure compliance across the entire hybrid environment
