The new release deploys advanced AI for fast and accurate application discovery, provides clear visualization and mapping of application connectivity and potential security risks in complex hybrid environments AlgoSec launches its AI-powered Security Platform, to securely manage application-centric connectivity and remediate risk in real time The new release deploys advanced AI for fast and accurate application discovery, provides clear visualization and mapping of application connectivity and potential security risks in complex hybrid environments September 25, 2024 Speak to one of our experts RIDGEFIELD PARK, NJ, September 25, 2024 – Global cybersecurity leader AlgoSec has launched its newest Security Management platform version, featuring advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technology that provides an application-centric security approach and a clearer picture of risks and their impact. With this new release, the AlgoSec platform enables users to accurately identify the business applications running in their complex hybrid network, and leverage intelligent change automation to streamline security change processes, thus improving security and agility. “Security professionals are overwhelmed with a barrage of alerts that provide no context between critical threats and minor issues,” said Eran Shiff , VP Product of AlgoSec. “By mapping applications, security teams can understand their criticality, automate changes and prioritize alerts that truly matter, saving countless hours through automation.” Gartner predicts that by 2027, 50 percent of critical enterprise applications will reside outside of centralized public cloud locations, underscoring the complexity that network infrastructures face. Today’s networks are 100 times more complex than they were 10 years ago, and the pace of deployment and development at which security teams are expected to work is 100 times faster. AI-powered application discovery enhances a security team’s ability to detect and respond to threats in real-time. An application-centric approach automates change management processes, identifies security risks and mitigates risks before they impact the network infrastructure. “In today’s evolving cyber landscape, it’s essential that we rapidly identify and prioritize threats as they occur,” said Robert Eldridge, Security Solutions Director of Natilik. “AlgoSec’s AI-powered platform helps us deliver proactive network visibility and risk mitigation to our clients, keeping them ahead of potential threats”. Securing hybrid infrastructures relies on four pillars that are essential to AlgoSec’s platform update: ● AI-driven application discovery – Advanced AI feature designed to automatically discover and identify the business applications that are running by correlating them to security changes that have been made. ● Intelligent and automated application connectivity change – New enhancements allow security professionals to directly adjust existing Microsoft Azure firewall rules for new application connections. Additionally, there’s added support for application awareness in Check Point R80+ firewalls. ● Reduce risk exposure and minimize attack surface – New features focus on tightening security posture and minimizing potential vulnerabilities. It streamlines Microsoft Azure Firewall rule management by identifying and recommending the removal of unused rules. It reduces risk exposure by automatically generating change management tickets to eliminate overly permissive rules. Additionally, it ensures compliance with the latest ASD-ISM regulations. ● Better visibility across complex hybrid networks – AlgoSec has enriched its capabilities to support visibility of network security devices including: NSX-T Gateway Firewall, Azure Load Balancer, and Google Cloud map and traffic path (in early availability).

SANOFI FINDS THE CURE FOR TIME-CONSUMING APPLICATION MIGRATION WITH ALGOSEC Organization Sanofi Industry Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals Headquarters Paris, France Download case study Share Customer
success stories "Using AlgoSec during our data center migration allowed us to give technical project leaders access to all of the rules involved in the migration of their applications, which reduced the IT security team’s time on these projects by 80%. The application was very useful, simple to use and made everybody happy." AlgoSec Business Impact Simplify data center migration projects Reduce rule migration process time by 80% Streamline and improve firewall operations Background A multinational pharmaceutical company, Sanofi, has 112 industrial sites in 41 countries and operations in more than 100 countries. The company’s 110,000 employees are committed to protecting health, enhancing life, providing hope and responding to the potential healthcare needs of seven billion people around the world. Challenge The sensitive nature of Sanofi’s business and its wide ranging global operations require an extensive and well secured network, which currently has 120 firewalls all over the world. In the midst of a data center consolidation project, the company needed to understand how its security devices would be affected by application migrations. Sanofi was also eager to improve change management processes and gain key performance indicators (KPIs) for risk analysis.“Our main concern with the data center consolidation project was to enable various technical project leaders to see the different rules impacting the migration of their applications, and to avoid any outages. For that, we needed pre-migration and post-migration documentation on security,” says Bruno Roulleau, Network Security Architect at Sanofi. “We also needed metrics on the risk associated with different policies on the firewalls.” Solution When looking for a solution, Sanofi evaluated several vendors. “A key point for us was the ability to easily integrate the security devices in our current infrastructure, into the solution. We also wanted detailed reporting that would allow us to delegate policy management to project leaders,” Roulleau notes.Because Sanofi constantly upgrades its devices, its systems need to evolve and incorporate the new devices and rules seamlessly. “We chose the AlgoSec Security Management solution because its graphical interface is very user-friendly, it easily supports new devices and generates detailed reports and metrics on risks,” says Roulleau.Sanofi also appreciated AlgoSec’s flexibility. “AlgoSec is very open to developing new capabilities. We can ask to have some new features available by a certain date and they will deliver on time,” according to Roulleau. For a company with a complex network and rapidly evolving security needs, that responsiveness proved key to the decision to go with AlgoSec. Results Sanofi’s security team is now able to delegate responsibility for rule changes both during migration and on an ongoing basis. “Using AlgoSec during our data center migration allowed us to give technical project leaders access to all of the rules involved in the migration of their applications, which reduced the IT security team’s time on these projects by 80%. The application was very useful, simple to use and made everybody happy,” Roulleau says.Additionally, with AlgoSec’s reports Sanofi can now easily and clearly document the status of their firewalls as well as the impact of any changes on the network throughout the migration project. “We can now generate detailed reports in just three clicks!” Roulleau adds.Furthermore, AlgoSec’s optimization reports enabled Sanofi to clean up its security policies. Because they could clearly see all of the rules and their impact on network security, Roulleau’s team was able to safely eliminate unused and duplicate rules, which increased the efficiency of the firewalls. Those reports also provided insight into the risks associated with the current system and various changes being made. Schedule time with one of our experts

A Decoy Network The strategy behind Sun Tzu’s ‘Art of War’ has been used by the military, sports teams, and pretty much anyone looking... Cyber Attacks & Incident Response How to Use Decoy Deception for Network Protection Matthew Pascucci 2 min read Matthew Pascucci 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 6/30/15 Published A Decoy Network The strategy behind Sun Tzu’s ‘Art of War’ has been used by the military, sports teams, and pretty much anyone looking for a strategic edge against their foes. As Sun Tzu says “All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.” Sun Tzu understood that to gain an advantage on your opponent you need to catch him off guard, make him believe you’re something you’re not, so that you can leverage this opportunity to your advantage. As security practitioners we should all supplement our security practices with this timed and tested decoy technique against cyber attackers. There are a few technologies that can be used as decoys, and two of the most common are honeypots and false decoy accounts: A honeypot is a specially designed piece of software that mimics another system, normally with vulnerable services that aren’t really vulnerable, in order to attract the attention of an attacker as they’re sneaking through your network. Decoy accounts are created in order to check if someone is attempting to log into them. When an attempt is made security experts can then investigate the attackers’ techniques and strategies, without being detected or any data being compromised. Design the right decoy But before actually setting up either of these two techniques you first need to think about how to design the decoy in a way that will be believable. These decoy systems shouldn’t be overtly obvious, yet they need to entice the hacker so that he can’t pass up the opportunity. So think like an attacker: What would an attacker do first when gaining access to a network? How would he exploit a system? Will they install malware? Will they perform a recon scan looking for pivot points? Figuring out what your opponent will do once they’ve gained access to your network is the key to building attractive decoy systems and effective preventive measures. Place it in plain sight You also need to figure out the right place for your decoys. You want to install decoys into your network around areas of high value, as well as systems that are not properly monitored with other security technologies. They should be hiding in plain sight and mimicking the systems or accounts that they’re living next to. This means running similar services, have hostnames that fall in line with your syntax, running on the same operating systems (one exception is decoys running a few exploitable services to entice the attacker). The goes the same for accounts that you’ve seeded in applications or authentication services. We decided that in addition to family photos, it was time to focus on couples photoshoot ! Last fall we aired our popular City Photoshoot Tips & Ideas and as a result, gave you TONS of ideas and inspiration. And last but not least, you need to find a way to discretely publicize your applications or accounts in order to attract the attacker. Then, when an attacker tries to log in to the decoy applications or accounts (which should be disabled) you should immediately and automatically start tracking and investigating the attack path. Watch and learn Another important point to make is that once a breach attempt has been made you shouldn’t immediately cut off the account. You might want to watch the hacker for a period of time to see what else that he might access on the network. Many times tracking their actions over a period of time will give you a lot more actionable information that will ultimately help you create a far more secure perimeter. Think of it as a plainclothes police officer following a known criminal. Many times the police will follow a criminal to see if he will lead them toward more information about their activities before making an arrest. Use the same techniques. If an attacker trips over a few of carefully laid traps, it’s possible that he’s just starting to poke around your network. It’s up to you, while you have the upper hand, to determine if you start remediation or continue to guide them under your watchful eye.

success stories "AlgoSec’s Security Management Solution is incredibly powerful. Its intelligent process improvements have directly translated into the highest level of security and compliance for our customers’ networks" Background With over 45 years’ experience in the banking sector, Atruvia ( formerly Fiducia IT AG) is one of the top ten IT providers in Germany. Today, Atruvia manages the IT networks of nearly 1,100 banks, constituting more than 100,000 PC workstations, 6,600 servers and 25,000 self-service banking terminals. Responsible for ensuring the smooth and secure processing of more than 16 billion transactions per year for its customers, Atruvia’s risk mitigation and regulatory compliance strategies are of utmost importance. Challenge To protect its customer networks, Atruvia implemented a number of security solutions, including 60 Check Point and 20 Juniper firewall clusters. However, managing multiple firewalls in a multi-vendor environment proved challenging. “Performing vulnerability assessments for such a large and complex firewall environment was extremely time-consuming, labor-intensive and prone to human error,” says Lutz Bleyer, Atruvia’s Chief Information Security Officer. With multiple stakeholders at each of its client organizations, Atruvia required a structured change management process to prevent firewall policies from growing unmanageable and creating security risks. “We needed a proven firewall management and workflow solution to eliminate potential security risks while providing us with complete visibility into our customer networks, anytime, anywhere,” says Bleyer. Solution After an in-depth analysis, Atruvia chose the AlgoSec Security Management Solution to optimize its security, compliance and change management processes. “AlgoSec provided the most comprehensive, intelligent automation solution for our firewall operations, helping us increase efficiency while improving risk mitigation and compliance,” says Bleyer. Results AlgoSec’s topology-aware technology provides Atruvia with complete visibility into the security landscape of its customers’ networks. “AlgoSec’s in-depth visibility enables us to easily create a hierarchy profile and establish a competency baseline of operations for each networks’ firewalls, even when multiple vendor technologies are involved,” says Bleyer. Atruvia’s security consultants and auditors are now closely aligned with their customers’ IT teams, regardless of their location. “The level of visibility AlgoSec provides across our customers’ security networks, and the ability to perform coordinated tasks remotely with them, enables us to work hand-in-hand as a joint team,” says Bleyer. Atruvia also uses AlgoSec to automate policy change management across customers’ firewall environments, enabling the company to eliminate manual and inefficient processes associated with the security policy change lifecycle, save time and reduce the potential for human error. “AlgoSec has fundamentally changed how we manage sophisticated, multi-device, multi-vendor firewall environments. By automating our workflows, we’ve eliminated unnecessary policy changes and reduced the time required to process changes by half,” explains Bleyer. “Thanks to AlgoSec’s intelligent automation, we’ve gained valuable optimization capabilities enabling our teams to operate smarter and faster.” Another important AlgoSec feature is its automatic assessment and reporting capabilities, which help Atruvia ensure that it remains in continuous compliance with corporate governance rules and adheres to regulatory standards, including ISO 27001, ISO 27002 and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX). Data and network security, particularly within the financial sector, requires incredible focus on risk management and mitigation. “With AlgoSec we can now analyze every change and its impact on the network before it is live, and focus on risk mitigation rather than crisis management.” In summary, Bleyer commented, “Not only does AlgoSec more than measure up from a technology perspective, but the integrity of the company and its employees has surpassed our expectations and raised the bar for what we look for in other partners.” Schedule time with one of our experts
