Guardicore Centra Security Platform

The fastest way to visualize and segment your assets in the data center, cloud, or hybrid cloud infrastructure.

“The real bonus is the fact that we can secure applications, all the way down to the individual services, on each host. It's actually more granular security than we can get out of a traditional firewall."

Joshua Turner

Manager Network & Security Engineering, Teleflora

Why Guardicore

What Makes Guardicore the Best Segmentation Solution?

Broadest Coverage

Guardicore protects critical assets no matter where they are deployed or accessed. In the cloud, on-premises, virtual servers, bare metal, or containers.

Consistent Policy Enforcement

Guardicore enables the same level of granular, process-level rules across different operating environments like Windows and Linux.

Faster and Simpler Segmentation

Guardicore supports a flexible allowlist/denylist model for fast risk reduction with a few rules. Others force you into a complex allowlist only model.
