Zero Trust Security

Reduce risk to critical assets with a Zero Trust approach to security

Zero Trust Security:
A More Effective Way to Manage Risk

Introduced by Forrester in 2010, the concept of Zero Trust security is not new. Zero Trust security proposes a fundamentally different model than what Forrester calls the “moat and castle” strategy that ignores threats and compromised assets inside the castle. It assumes that every user, device, system or connection is already compromised (by default) whether they are inside or outside of the network.

Zero Trust is not a technology, and it is not a product. There are no silver bullets in achieving a Zero Trust security posture. It is a strategic, architectural approach to security enabled by technology. Simply put, it provides CISOs and other security leaders with a more rigorous security posture for today’s world of escalating risk.

Accelerate Zero Trust adoption with faster and easier segmentation

Classify workloads and data

Map application dependencies and traffic flows.

Learn more

Many organizations lack visibility into how applications work. Visibility is a cornerstone for Zero Trust security. Centra classifies assets and maps application dependencies that are critical to create segmentation policy for Zero Trust microperimeters.

Prevent lateral movement

Contain breaches behind the perimeter before they cause damage.

Flat and under-segmented networks create opportunities for attackers to move laterally and dwell undetected for long periods of time. Centra provides micro-segmentation and breach detection capabilities to prevent the spread of breaches and detect them faster.

Simplify and accelerate compliance

Avoid complex audits and stay compliant.

Ongoing compliance management and audits can be a complex and time-consuming process. Applying a Zero Trust approach to segmentation of the network and critical assets with Centra reduces the scope of compliance initiatives such as PCI DSS and SWIFT.

Fast and simple micro-segmentation for Zero Trust

Guardicore Centra allows you to accelerate the adoption of Zero Trust security by providing the fastest and simplest way to segment your critical assets and data. Centra gives you complete visibility into how applications work across data center and cloud environments and a simple, highly precise security policy framework to establish Zero Trust microperimeters consistently across any environment, including legacy systems, bare metal, hypervisors, or public cloud/IaaS.

USE CASE

Accelerate Your Zero Trust Initiative with Guardicore

When organizations decide to move forward with a Zero Trust security strategy, often the first question is “where should we start?” It is important to understand that Zero Trust is a journey. And Guardicore can help you get there. Guardicore provides multiple security capabilities in a single platform that helps accelerate Zero Trust, including visibility, which is key in defending any valuable asset, micro-segmentation, which isolates applications and workloads and prevents lateral movement, and integrated breach detection and response.

Visualize Data and Assets – Granular visibility simplifies the identification and classification of sensitive data and workloads and sets the foundation for building an effective Zero Trust security policy.

Prevent Lateral Movement – Micro-segmentation of your data center network allows you to architect Zero Trust “microperimeters” that stop lateral movement by attackers after a breach.

Respond Faster to Breaches – Real-time monitoring and analysis of security incidents, integrated with SIEM/SOAR platforms, quickly identifies and enables rapid response to malicious activity.
