Micro-segmentation is one of the network security strategies. It aims to create a more secure environment by minimising data traffic on the network and controlling the communication within the same network. This service segments devices and applications on a network according to security policies. In this way, the spread of an attack is prevented and each network component is managed according to its own security policy.
Micro-segmentation services are particularly used in cloud computing environments. Cloud services require multiple customers to use the same physical hardware or network domains that require different levels of security, which increases security risks. Micro-segmentation offers a viable solution to mitigate these risks and the necessary means to control them.
Micro-segmentation services can include features such as routing network traffic and monitoring devices and applications on the network. These services can be customised according to the customer’s needs and business requirements and can be managed by the infralix team.
