Network Security Policy Management Network segmentation vs. VLAN explained Tsippi Dach 2 min read Tsippi Dach Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 8/9/23 Published Safeguarding the network architecture is the need of the hour. According to a study, the average cost of a data breach is at an all-time high of $4.35 million. And this figure will only increase with governments and regulators becoming ever stricter on data breaches. The go-to method IT administrators adopt to safeguard their networks is network segmentation. By segmenting a larger network into smaller chunks, it becomes much more manageable to secure the entire network. But network segmentation is a broad concept and doesn’t refer to a single procedure. In fact, there are several segmentation processes — one of them being VLAN. Instead of simplifying, this adds to the complexity. In this article, we will explain the core difference between network segmentation and VLAN and when you should opt for a particular one over the other. What is network segmentation? Let’s start with the definitions of network segmentation and VLAN. By definition, network segmentation is the practice of compartmentalizing a network according to firewall rules . In other words, it’s about dividing a computer network into subnetworks. The subnetworks, at the IP level, are known as subnets. Each of the subnets then works independently and in isolation. Think of how a nation is split into various states and provinces for better management at the local level. Running an entire nation at the federal level is too much work. In addition to subnetting, there are other segmentation options like firewall segmentation and SDN (Software Defined Network) segmentation. But for this article’s sake, we will focus on subnets since those are the most common. What is VLAN? VLAN or Virtual LAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is also a type of network segmentation approach where the main physical network is divided into multiple smaller virtual networks. The division is done logically or virtually, not requiring buying additional physical resources. The same resource is divided using computer logic. There are several benefits to dividing the parts of the network, either using VLAN segmentation or subnet techniques. Some of them are: Broadcast domain isolation Both subnets and VLAN isolate broadcast domains. This way, broadcasting network traffic is contained in a single segment instead of being exposed to the entire network. This reduces the chance of network congestion during peak hours and unnecessary server overload, thereby maximizing efficiency. Enhanced security The isolation by subnets or VLAN enhances the IT network’s security policies. This is achieved through various factors that are at play. But primarily, the creation of subnetworks makes the flat network more secure. With multiple subnetworks, you can regulate the security parameters. Thus, those subnets containing critical data (like that of healthcare) can have enhanced cybersecurity measures more than others, making them harder to crack. So, from a security perspective, both subnets and VLAN are a must. Better network management With digitization and IT modernization, the IT infrastructure is growing. Concurrently, it’s getting harder to manage them. Microsegmentation is one way of managing the ever-growing infrastructure. By segmenting, you can deploy teams to each segment, thereby strengthening their management and accountability. With the implementation of SDN, you can even configure and automate the management of some of the subnetworks. Flexibility in scalability Many network administrators face network performance and scalability issues expanding resources. The issues are a mix of technical and economical. Network segmentation offers a solution to such issues. By segmenting the entire data center network, you can choose which segments to expand and control the resources granted to each segment. This also makes scalability more economical. While both offer scalability opportunities, VLAN offers superior functionality than subnets. Reduced scope of compliance Compliance is another area that IT execs need to work on. And network segmentation, either via subnets or VLAN, can help in this regard. By having subnets, you don’t have to audit your entire segmented network as required by regulators. Just audit the necessary subnets and submit the reports to the regulators for approval. This takes far less time and costs significantly less than auditing the entire network. Differences between network segmentation and VLAN By definition, network segmentation (subnetting) and VLAN sound pretty similar. After all, there’s a division of the main network into subnetworks or smaller networks. But besides the core similarities mentioned above, there are a few critical differences. Let’s dive into the differences between the two. The primary difference between the two subnets are layer 3 divisions, while VLANs are layer 2 divisions. As you may recall, networks are layer 1 (device), layer 2 (data link), layer 3 (IP, routers), and so on, up to layer 7 (application). TCP/IP is the newer framework with four layers only. So, when you divide a network at a data link, you need to adopt VLAN. With VLAN, several networks exist on the same physical network but may not be connected to the same fiber switch. In subnets, the division occurs at IP level. Thus, the independent subnets are assigned their IP addresses and communicate with others over layer 3. Besides this significant difference, there are other dissimilarities you should know. Here’s a table to help you understand: VLAN Subnet 1 Divides the network within the same physical network using logic. Divides the IP network into multiple IP networks 2 VLANs communicate with other devices within the same LAN The communication between the subnets is carried out over layer 3 3 It is configured at the switch side It is configured at IP level 4 VLAN divisions are software-based terminology since they’re divided logically. Subnets can be both hardware- of software-based 5 VLAN provides better network access and tend to be more stable Subnets offer limited control When to adopt a subnet? There are use cases when subnets are more suited, while there are cases when you’re better off with Virtual LANs. As per the definition, you need to adopt a subnet when dividing different networks at IP level. So, if you want to create multiple IP addresses for each partition, implement subnets. The subnets are essentially networks within a network with their own IP addresses. Thus, they divide the broadcast domain and improve speed and efficiency. Subnets are also the go-to segmentation method when you need to make the sub-networks available over layer 3 to the outside world. With appropriate access control lists, anyone with an internet connection would be able to access the subnets But subnetting is also used to prevent access to a particular subnet. For example, you may want to limit access to the company’s software codebase to anyone outside the development department. So, only network devices with approved IP addresses used by the developer network are approved to access the codebase. But there are two downsides to subnets you should know. The first one is increased time complexity. When dealing with a single network, three steps are in place to reach the Process (Source Host, Destination Network, and Process). In subnets, there’s an additional step involved (Source Host, Destination Network, Subnet, Process). This extra step increases time complexity, requiring more time for data transfer and connectivity. It also affects stability. Subnetting also increases the number of IP addresses required since each subnet requires its own IP address. This can become hard to manage over time. When to adopt VLAN? Virtual LANs are internal networks within the same physical network. They interact with one another, not with other devices on the same network or outside the world. Think of VLAN as a private wireless network at home. Your neighbors don’t have access to it, but everyone in your home has. If that sounds like your desired result, you should adopt VLAN. There are three types of VLANs (basic, extended, and tagged). In basic VLAN, you assign IDs to each switch port or PCI . Once assigned, you can’t change them. Extended VLAN has more functionalities like priority-based routing. Lastly, tagged VLAN enables you to create multiple VLANs with IEEE 802.1Q. The main advantages of different VLANs over subnet are speed and stability. Since endpoints do not have to resolve IP addresses every time, they tend to be faster. But there’s a significant disadvantage to VLANs: It’s easier to breach multiple partitions if there’s a malicious injection. Without proper network security controls, it is easier to exploit vulnerabilities using malware and ransomware , putting your entire network at risk. Having ACLs (access control lists) can help in such situations. Furthermore, there are issues arising out of physical store requirements. Connecting two segments in VLAN requires you to use routers and IoT. Routers are physical devices that take up space. The more segments you create, the more routers you need to use. Over time, management can become an issue. The bottom line Both subnets and VLANs are network segmentation approaches that improve security and workload management. It’s not a given that you can’t have both. Some companies benefit from the implementation of VLAN and subnets simultaneously. But there are specific times when IT service providers prefer one over the other. Consider your requirements to select the approach that’s right for you.

Tags Share this article 9/8/22 Published As cloud adoption and digital transformation increases, more sensitive data from applications is being stored in data containers. This is why effective container security controls to securely manage application connectivity is an absolute must. AlgoSec CTO and Co-Founder, Prof. Avishai Wool provides some useful container security best practices to help you do just that. What is Container Security? Organizations, now more than ever, are adopting container technology. Instead of powering up servers and instances in the cloud, they are using containers to run business applications. Securing these is equally as important as securing other digital assets that the business is dependent on. There are two main pillars to think about: The code: you want to be able to scan the containers and make sure that they are running legitimate code without any vulnerabilities. The network: you need to control access to and from the container (what it can connect to), both inside the same cluster, other clusters, and different parts of the network. How critical is container security to managing application connectivity risks? To understand the role of container security within the overall view of network security, there are three points to consider. First, if you’re only concerned about securing the containers themselves, then you’re looking at nano-segmentation , which involves very granular controls inside the applications. Second, if you’re thinking about a slightly wider scope then you may be more concerned with microsegmentation , where you are segmenting between clusters or between servers in a single environment. Here you will want to enforce security controls that determine the allowable communication between specific endpoints at specific levels. Finally, if the communication needs to go further, from a container inside one cluster within one cloud environment to an asset that’s outside of the data center, then that might need to go through broader segmentation controls such as zoning technologies, security groups or a firewall at the border. So, there are all these layers where you can place network security policies. When you’re looking at a particular connectivity request (say for a new version of an application) from the point of view of a given container you should ask yourself: what is the container connected to? What is it communicating with? Where are those other sides of the connectivity placed? Based on that determination, you will then know which security controls you need to configure to allow that connectivity through the network. How does containerization correlate with application centric security policy management? There are a number of different aspects to the relationship between container security and application security. If an application uses containers to power up workloads then container security is very much an integral part of application security. When you’re adding new functionality to an application, powering up additional containers, asking containers to perform new tasks whereby they need to connect to additional assets, then the connectivity of those containers needs to be secured. And security controls need to be regulated or changed based on what the application needs them to do. Another factor in this relationship is the structure of the application. All the containers that run and support the application are often located in one cluster or a micro-segment of the network. So, much of the communication takes place inside that cluster, between one container or another, all in the same cluster. However, some of it can go to another cluster or somewhere that’s not even containerized. This is actually a good thing from an application point of view as the container structure can be used to understand the application structure as well. Not sure about container orchestration? Here’s what to know Container orchestration is part of a bigger orchestration play which is, in general, related to the concept of infrastructure as code. You want to be able to power up an environment with all the assets it requires, and have it function simultaneously so you can duplicate it. There are various orchestration technologies that can be used to deploy the security policies for containers , which is an excellent way to maintain container-based applications in a consistent and repeatable manner. Then if you need to double it or multiply it by 100, you can get cookie-cutter copies of the same thing. How will container security solutions play out in the future? Organizations today have the technology to enforce security controls at the container level, but these controls are very granular and it’s time-consuming to set policies and enforce them, particularly with issues like staff or skills shortages. Looking ahead, companies are likely to take a hierarchical view where container-based security is controlled at the application level by app owners or developers, and at the broader levels to ensure that the measures deployed throughout the network have the same degree of sophistication. Procedures and tooling are all evolving, so we don’t have a definitive answer as to how this will all end up. What are organizations going to be doing? Where will they place their controls? Who has the power to make the changes? When newer technologies are deployed, customer adoption will be crucial to understanding what makes the most sense. This will be interesting as there will be multiple scenarios to help companies master their security blueprint as we move forward.

success stories "I selected AlgoSec’s Security Management Solution because the reporting is very trustworthy, it helps reduce the operational workload for network security administrators, and ultimately it improves performance and security." AlgoSec Business Impact Reduce the workload for the operations team and improve efficiency Provide comprehensive trustworthy reporting on change management Improve overall network performance and security Background Verizon is one of the world’s largest global communications companies and an international technology innovator. Verizon provides products and services related to networks, cloud, machine to machine and mobile technologies; data, hosting and storage; and managed security, as well as other wired and wireless offerings to business and government clients around the world. The company’s Global IP Network connects people and businesses in 2,700 cities and 150 countries. Challenge Verizon’s professional services consultants find that their clients too often focus on compliance to the detriment of security and operational issues. “From an auditing perspective, if the firewall is up and running some clients think they are more or less okay,” says Stefano Ciminelli, EMEA Practice Manager, Business Resiliency & Optimization at Verizon Business. Ciminelli warns that clients also need to be certain that “the firewall policies do not contain mistakes—those that could bring down their business. It’s not just a problem of protecting the IT systems, it’s really a matter of protecting the business,” he notes. Firewall management can also create tension between the network security group and business managers. “You always have the network security people focused on IT and the business people who like to focus on change management. Often these two groups don’t really communicate or understand each other easily,” Ciminelli adds.Moreover, many companies have several people devoted to managing firewalls and “firefighting,” “because they simply do not have the right tools,” says Ciminelli. Solution Ciminelli and his team at Verizon wanted to provide their clients with a way to address IT and security issues and, at the same time, automate change management workflows in order to support business continuity.“You want to be operationally efficient; you want to be secure; and especially, you want to help your business do their business. But, when it comes to network firewall management and analysis, you actually have few tools available that help you meet all those goals,” says Ciminelli. From the security manager’s perspective, AlgoSec’s Security Management Solution was the top choice. “The reporting is very trustworthy, it helps reduce the operational workload for network security administrators, and ultimately it improves performance and security,” Ciminelli states. “You can find a lot of vendors for security products in the market. But I don’t want to just sell products. I am entrusted to recommend quality services, so I rely on an extremely trustworthy partner like AlgoSec.” Results Ciminelli reports that when his customers invest in AlgoSec, “they are very happy because they can proactively manage their firewalls.” More importantly, though, “they are not forced to change a rule, close their eyes, cross their fingers and hope that everything is going to be okay.” Customers can trust AlgoSec’s reports to show how a rule change will affect access and their overall security before a change is made, and that there will be no surprises after the fact. The ability to share information between IT and business managers has also provided some unexpected benefits for Ciminelli. “When it comes to asking for additional budget, for instance, IT can now prove value and that makes life easier for everybody,” he notes. Customer service ranks high in Ciminelli’s priorities—and AlgoSec consistently delivers. “Whenever I have a problem I always get very efficient and proactive technical support from the AlgoSec team. This is one of the primary reasons I continue to advise my customers to purchase AlgoSec,” he says. Ciminelli urges his clients and other companies to think broadly about the real purpose of firewall policy management. “What you want is not just a well configured firewall, you want good long-term security management.” The goal is to have a firewall that provides excellent protection as the company grows, needs change, and applications are deployed, changed or decommissioned. Ciminelli’s final recommendation? “Using AlgoSec products and relying on good professional services to help you, that is really the smart choice.” Schedule time with one of our experts

Tags Share this article 6/15/24 Published In the bustling world of cloud security, where complexity and rapid change are the norms, Ava Chawla, Director of Cloud Security at AlgoSec, sits down to share her insights and experiences. With a relaxed yet passionate demeanor, Ava discusses how her team is pioneering strategies to keep businesses safe and thriving amidst the digital transformation. Embracing the “100x Revolution” “Look, the landscape has transformed dramatically,” Ava reflects with a thoughtful pause. “We’re not just talking about incremental changes here; it’s about a revolution—a ‘100x revolution.’ It’s where everything is exponentially more complex and moves at breakneck speeds. And at the heart? Applications. They’re no longer just supporting business processes; they’re driving them, creating new opportunities, modernizing how we operate, and pushing boundaries.” The Power of Double-Layered Cloud Security Leaning in, Ava shares the strategic thinking behind their innovative approach to cloud security. “One of the things we’ve pioneered is what we call application-centric double-layered cloud security. This is about proactively stopping attacks, and better managing vulnerabilities to safeguard your most critical business applications and data. Imagine a stormy day, you layer up with raincoat and warm clothes for protection The sturdy raincoat represents the network layer, shielding against initial threats, while the layers of clothing underneath symbolize the configuration layer, providing added insulation. Together, these layers offer double layer protection. For businesses, double-layer cloud security means defense in depth at the network layer, unique to AlgoSec, and continuous monitoring across everything in the cloud. Now combine double-layered security with an application centric approach focused on business continuity and data protection across the applications that run the business. Cloud configurations risks are inevitable. You are responsible for safeguarding the business. Imagine you have a tool where you start with an AI-driven view of all your business applications and the attack surface, in seconds you can spot any vulnerable paths open for exploitation as it relates to your most critical applications. Application centric double layer security – the double layers is that extra layer of protection you need when the environment is unpredictable. Combine this with an app-centric perspective for effective prioritization and better security management. It’s a powerful combination! This approach isn’t just about adding more security; it’s about smart security, designed to tackle the challenges that our IT and security teams face every day across various cloud platforms.” Making Security Predictive, Not Just Reactive Ava’s passion is evident as she discusses the proactive nature of their security measures. “We can’t just be reactive anymore,” she says, emphasizing each word. “Being predictive, anticipating what’s next, that’s where we really add value. It’s about seeing the big picture, understanding the broader implications of connectivity and security. Our tools and solutions are built to be as dynamic and forward-thinking as the businesses we protect.” Aligning Security With Business Goals “There’s a beautiful alignment that happens when security and business goals come together,” Ava explains. “It’s not just about securing things; it’s about enabling business growth, expansion, and innovation. We integrate our security strategies with business objectives to ensure that as companies scale and evolve, their security posture does too.” A Vision for the Future With a reflective tone, Ava looks ahead. “What excites me the most about the future is our commitment to innovation and staying ahead of the curve. We’re not just keeping up; we’re setting the pace. We envision a world where technology empowers, enhances, and expands human potential. That’s the future we’re building towards—a secure, thriving digital landscape.” A Closing Thought As the conversation wraps up, Ava’s enthusiasm is palpable. “Our promise at AlgoSec is simple: we empower businesses without interfering with their productivity. We turn digital challenges into growth opportunities. It’s not just about managing risks—it’s about leveraging them for growth.” In a world driven by rapid technological advancements and significant security risks, Ava Chawla and her team at AlgoSec are crafting solutions that ensure businesses can navigate the complexities of the digital landscape with confidence and creativity.
