Migrating and Managing Security Policies in a Segmented Data Center
Prof. Avishai Wool
CTO & Co Founder AlgoSec
Network segmentation is an effective strategy for protecting access to key data assets and impeding the lateral movement of threats and cybercriminals inside your data center. With network virtualization, such as VMware NSX and Cisco ACI now a reality it’s far simpler to set up granular security policies for east-west traffic within the data center. Yet the added granularity of securities policies creates significant complexity.
Presented by renowned industry expert Professor Avishai Wool, this technical webinar will provide strategies and best practices to help organizations migrate and manage security policies efficiently within a micro-segmented data center.
In this webinar, Prof. Wool will discuss how to:
Security Policy Management Across the Next Generation Data Center
This paper examines the new realities facing today’s security, networking and application teams, the challenges of managing the security policy in an environment of constant change and complexity, and the solutions that can help manage security at the speed of business.
AlgoSec Cloud - Cloud security policy and configuration management made simple
As organizations adopt cloud strategies and migrate applications to take advantage of cloud economies of scale, they face new levels of complexity and risk to their security posture. Security controls and network architectures from leading cloud vendors are distinct from each other and fundamentally different from those found in on-premise data centers – and not as stringent. Customers of these cloud services often do not know how to use them securely.
Hybrid Cloud Environments: The State of Security
This research report uncovers key trends and best practices for managing network security across on-premise data centers and the public cloud.
Simplify and Accelerate Large-scale Application Migration Projects
Migrating applications to the cloud or to another data center – without creating security gaps or causing application outages – is far easier said than done. Understanding and mapping existing application connectivity flows for complex enterprise applications pre-migration – which is critical in order to re-establish the correct traffic flows post-migration – is extremely difficult. There’s usually little to no up-to-date documentation on existing application connectivity and it can take months to gather the necessary information, understand the requirements and then painstakingly adjust and migrate every firewall rule, router ACL and cloud security group to the new environment.
Tie Incident Response to Business Processes, Prioritize and Automate Remediation
SIEM solutions collect, correlate and analyze the logs generated by your technology infrastructure, security systems and business applications. The Security Operations Center (SOC) team uses this information to identify and flag suspicious activity for further investigation. However, given the vast amount of data many of these alerts are false alarms.
