  • Micro-segmentation: Examples, solutions & top benefits | AlgoSec

    Explore micro-segmentation: a powerful security strategy. Discover real-world examples, top solutions, and key benefits for enhanced security and reduced risk. Micro-segmentation: Examples, solutions & top benefits Micro-segmentation: What it is, how it works, benefits Micro-segmentation means breaking down enterprise networks into multiple segments and using security policies to dictate how the data and applications in each segment will be accessed. These determinations are made by limiting traffic based on zero trust and least privilege principles. It provides a viable solution to flawed network security policies that weaken enterprise security. A micro-segmentation strategy enables organizations to reduce the size of their attack surface and make their networks safer against potential breaches. It also allows them to improve incident response, contain the impact of breaches, and maintain compliance with relevant laws and regulations. Schedule a Demo The need for micro-segmentation All organizations must protect their data centers with robust and effective firewall policies. Without these policies and associated security controls, smart and devious cybercriminals can easily hack into enterprise networks and systems. Micro-segmentation provides an effective way to install strong, clean, and easily-manageable security policies that help to create a more secure on-prem or hybrid cloud environment. This environment can keep traffic safe and block potential breaches from corrupting servers or compromising data. Moreover, creating multiple logical segments that are isolated from each other and enforced with least-privileged access keeps threat actors out of the network and also helps to contain a breach if it does happen. Schedule a Demo How micro-segmentation works Micro-segmentation can be applied in both on-prem data centers and cloud environments. It isolates network workloads which enable security teams to create security policies. These policies dictate the type of traffic passing in and out of each micro-segment. The policies are used to manage and create secure network segments and determine how these segments or zones will be accessed. They dictate how applications and workloads will access the resources they need, how they will share data within a system, and in which direction. Micro-segmentation also enables security teams to determine what kind of security or authentication measures are required for the environment. There are three main micro-segmentation approaches. Micro-segmentation works differently depending on which approach is adopted. Agent-based/host-based micro-segmentation Agent-based micro-segmentation utilizes a software agent deployed on the workload. It doesn’t rely on static network-level rules based on network ports or IP addresses. The agent allows security teams to enforce granular isolation, better control individual hosts, and implement automated segmentation policies with human-readable labels. Agent-based micro-segmentation security solutions are infrastructure-independent so they can be deployed across both data center and cloud infrastructure. One drawback of the method is that not all workloads can have an agent installed on them. Also, attackers can exploit the trust in the network with host firewall-based micro-segmentation. Network-based micro-segmentation Network-based micro-segmentation leverages the network infrastructure to enforce security policies. The policies are configured and enforced using access control lists (ACLs) or IP constructs. There’s no need to deploy agents on workloads. A drawback of this method is that the policies can only be enforced per endpoint, so network firewalls cannot distinguish between legitimate software and malware and will therefore block or allow both. Also, the policies are static, which can cause performance issues in more dynamic (e.g., cloud) environments. Finally, the approach can be complicated to manage when more granular micro-segments and a higher number of firewall rules are created. Hypervisor-based micro-segmentation This method depends on virtualized environments and hypervisors to create overlay networks and enforce micro-segmentation. The approach does not require network hardware changes. Also, its policy constructs are easy to learn for security teams. The chief drawback of the approach is that it doesn’t support bare metal servers, container workloads, or public cloud environments. Also, it doesn’t provide host-level visibility into its software, processes, vulnerabilities, etc. Schedule a Demo Examples of micro-segmentation One common example of micro-segmentation is the separation of development and testing environments from production environments. Granularly limiting the connections between these environments prevents careless or dangerous activities, such as using sensitive/live data for testing. Other examples include: Application micro-segmentation: Restricting access to sensitive data in applications to prevent unauthorized use or malicious exfiltration User micro-segmentation: Leveraging user identity services to control access to applications and services Tier-level micro-management: Separating application components to allow only authorized users to access specific components and keep unauthorized users out Schedule a Demo Network segmentation vs. Micro-segmentation Network segmentation divides the enterprise network into multiple security zones. In traditional data center environments, network segmentation is usually accomplished using firewalls, VLANs, and access control lists (ACLs). In more modern, cloud-based environments, Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), subnets, and Security Groups (SGs). Microsoft Azure, for example, provides numerous network segmentation options, such as subscriptions (platform-powered separation between entities), virtual networks (isolated and secure networks to run virtual machines and applications), network security groups (access control mechanisms to control traffic between resources within a virtual network), and Azure firewall (a cloud-native stateful firewall-as-a-service to filter traffic flowing between cloud resources, the Internet, and on-premise). Regardless of the environment type, the zones created with network segmentation consist of multiple devices and applications. Admins can set access controls that permit only specific traffic between zones. Micro-segmentation is a more granular form of network segmentation. It involves placing each device or application within its own logically isolated segment instead of simply breaking a network into multiple, large segments. It thus provides more granular visibility and greater control than network segmentation. Unlike network segmentation which breaks the network based on north-south traffic (traffic running between clients and servers and crossing the security perimeter), micro-segmentation focuses on east-west traffic that moves laterally across and within the network. Moreover, it usually uses software policies and software-defined networking (SDN). With SDN, all network traffic is routed through an inspection point (e.g., a next-generation firewall) that can identify an attacker’s lateral movement and block inappropriate accesses to the network and its resources. Some SDN solutions, such as Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI), can automatically assign endpoints to logical security zones called endpoint groups (EPGs). These EPGs may have a contract that is used to control traffic flow between EPGs within the ACI fabric. Schedule a Demo Network segmentation challenges and how micro-segmentation Helps Dividing a network into multiple smaller segments can improve both its security and performance. Effective network segmentation allows security teams to spot an attack and act early to mitigate its impact and prevent its spread across the network. Even so, it can be challenging to implement network segmentation. For one, dividing the network into many VLANs and subnets requires a lot of manual effort. Also, the network may need to be re-architected, which can be difficult, time-consuming, and expensive. Micro-segmentation is a better and easier approach to securing a network, especially if host-based micro-segmentation is adopted. This is because the host-based approach is infrastructure-independent, provides more granular control, and enables micro-segmentation based on human-understandable policies instead of static network-level rules. Plus, the model can be deployed across both, cloud and data center environments without “coupling” to them. In addition, it decouples security policy enforcement from the physical infrastructure, simplifying administration and allowing more granular control. Also, it does not require network re-architecting so it is less time-consuming, less complex, and more cost-effective than network segmentation. Schedule a Demo Micro-segmentation: Essential for zero trust security Micro-segmentation is increasingly used to implement zero trust security . This new security model considers all users and devices untrustworthy by default. To gain access to network resources and become “trusted”, the user or device must meet the network’s conditions, for example, undergo a virus scan or complete multi-factor authentication (MFA). The zero trust model enables organizations to move away from traditional perimeter-based network security which is inadequate for modern-day remote workers and cloud environments. And micro-segmentation supports the model by: Dividing the network into smaller zones Creating a mini-perimeter around each endpoint to secure it individually Providing enhanced network visibility and stronger access controls In sum, zero trust, and micro-segmentation work in tandem by securing workloads in dynamic environments and preventing the lateral movement of unauthorized users in the network. Schedule a Demo The top 7 benefits of micro-segmentation The need for micro-segmentation is increasing because it provides all these benefits: Effective security through enhanced endpoint protection Micro-segmentation provides effective and cost-efficient security, particularly in modern network environments that are complex, dynamic, and fast-expanding. By logically dividing the data center into distinct security segments, it enables security architects to define security controls for each segment. This then reduces the size of the attack surface and enables the organization to better resist attacks or intrusions. Protection against network-based threats Micro-segmentation protects networks against network-based threats like DDoS attacks and WiFI attacks. It also allows admins to implement robust controls to restrict the flow of traffic on detecting a threat. Protection for cloud workloads and data Micro-segmentation can secure dynamic cloud systems, workloads, and data. With granular microsegments, security teams can easily monitor cloud traffic, identify suspicious or malicious traffic, and respond quickly once they detect dangerous breaches. Protection from advanced persistent threats (APTs) Individual micro-segments contain security checkpoints that help to keep cyber threats from spreading across the network. So, even if one part of a network is compromised, attackers cannot move laterally and reach or persist in other parts of the network. Thus, micro-segmentation protects the network from APTs. Improves breach containment Even if the network is breached, security staff can contain its impact with micro-segmentation. By monitoring traffic against secure policies, they can reduce the impact of a breach as well as their response time. Support for centralized policy management Organizations can use micro-segmentation to create and enforce granular security policies and to centralize policy management across networks. Without it, they would have to manually manage policies across a large fleet of devices and resources, which is a complex and time-consuming task. In addition, they can enforce zero-trust security policies, where access is allowed based on need, which can reduce the organization’s cyber risk. Endpoint separation enables regulatory compliance Micro-segmentation using the host-based approach helps isolate separately-secured endpoints, allowing security staff to easily control the traffic in systems that are subject to regulations. Policy granularity and visibility ensure that distributed devices are always protected by unified network security and also reduce the risks of non-compliant usage.

success stories "Today, we are many times more efficient and secure thanks to AlgoSec." Background The company’s globally distributed network includes more than ten demilitarized zones (DMZs) with 20 billion events processed per month across the multiple company locations. Firewalls play a vital role in protecting intellectual property at the perimeter level. Every firewall event is logged and processed. Challenges The company’s operations require a very large and diverse network with a large Global Network Security operations team that is spread across the US, EMEA and Asia. The team is responsible for the management of all perimeter and internal security solutions, remote access solutions, customer connectivity solutions and the Security Operations Center (SOC). “We suffered from a lot of network security issues that prevented us from running at the speed of the business,” declared the Senior Manager of Global Security and SOC. Auditing Firewall rules was a long, tedious and painful process Access revocation was performed using a manual reminders process The diverse army of firewalls across the network estate resulted in a non-standard way of making and executing Firewall change requests, requiring many steps to complete the process An out-of-the-box ServiceNow workflow with limited functionality couldn’t keep up Limited reporting capabilities relied on manual data processing There was no way to track performance of SLAs The cumbersome approval process required managers to login to the company ticketing portal Notification of unauthorized or unapproved changes on firewalls was clumsy and slow The company decided to acquire an orchestration and automation solution that could identify and mitigate risky firewall rules. Since the company is subject to many industry and legal regulations, the solution would have to automate compliance reporting as well as ensure accountability for all firewall changes. The solution also would have to integrate into existing ticketing processes and workflows while enabling the company, at its own pace, to advance to more and more automation. Solution The company evaluated several solutions by reviewing their features carefully and putting the best among them to the test in parallel proof of concept projects. The senior manager recalls, “We had a very close look at the leading solutions in the Network Security Policy Management space. One of them definitely stood out from the pack as the superior solution.” The company chose AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer (AFA) and AlgoSec FireFlow (AFF), two of the flagship products in the AlgoSec arsenal. AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer ensures security and compliance by providing visibility and analysis into complex network security policies. AlgoSec FireFlow improves security and saves security staffs’ time by automating the entire security policy change process, eliminating manual errors, and reducing risk. Results In short order, the company was able to capitalize on the significant advantages of the AlgoSec solution. “It was easy to customize the AlgoSec solution to fit into our environment and enhance it,” continued the senior manager. “But it didn’t take long before we were using the power of the two products to help us adopt better practices for lower risk, higher security, and better efficiency of our team.” Today, the AlgoSec solution is delivering significant improvements to the company’s security processes such as: Visibility across the entire network with an easy-to-use-and-understand executive dashboard Integration with the ticketing tool Proactive analysis of change requests to ensure compliance risk mitigation Prevention of unauthorized changes Elimination of human errors and associated application outages Automatic discovery and mapping of application-connectivity flows Single Sign On (SSO) integration that eliminated static user passwords Support for mobile firewall change-request manager approval “We are a big company with an enormous volume of network-security activity,” stated the manager. “In addition to the superior capabilities of the solution, we greatly appreciated the excellent customization opportunities that AlgoSec’s Professional Services were able to help us with. Today, we are many times more efficient and secure thanks to AlgoSec.” Schedule time with one of our experts

Schedule a Demo Network security management FAQ Frequently asked questions about network security management and AlgoSec’s network security policy management platform. How does firewall security management differ from network security management? Firewall security management is one of the specialized components of network security management – the practice of ensuring the overall safety of the entire network and its devices. Specifically, firewall management involves configuring rules to allow or block specific types of traffic based on factors such as IP address, port and protocol. Network security management covers a wider range of tasks, but both processes are essential for reducing the organization’s attack surface and for effective risk management. What key role does firewall configuration management play in network security? The security and exposure of web, email, VPN and database servers, routers, workstations and other devices depend on effective firewall configuration management. That’s because firewalls are responsible for blocking unwanted or malicious traffic (e.g. malware, ransomware, denial-of-service attacks, etc.) and allowing legitimate traffic to pass through. Besides creating traffic filtering rules, managing firewall configurations also involves securing access, keeping the firewall up to date. And since most regulatory authorities expect organizations to have firewalls as part of their security controls, the effectiveness of firewall configuration management cascades across compliance requirements as well. How does network security management help with risk management? Network security management activities help identify the sources of IT security risk, apply mitigating measures and monitor the effectiveness of this cycle as the business environment evolves. Specific processes include: Identifying potential vulnerabilities (e.g. application connectivity flows, weak credentials, unpatched software, open ports, etc.) through security assessments and penetration testing. Prioritizing risks and keeping security teams aligned on which high-impact security threats need fast resolution to avoid breaches and situations of non-compliance. Implementing security controls (e.g. firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, encryption, etc.) that strengthen the organization’s security posture. Pushing firewall rules to devices so they don’t open security holes and increase exposure to cyberattacks. Continuously monitoring the network for evidence of security breaches, (e.g. unusual activity, unauthorized access etc.). Applying cybersecurity incident response plans in the event of a successful attack (e.g. isolating affected systems) to avoid or minimize downtime and ensure business continuity. How can I proactively assess and manage security threats? Information security offers a range of options to proactively determine and manage security threats across people, processes and technology: Regular security assessments that scrutinize networks, systems and applications to identify vulnerabilities and exposure to cyberattacks. Examples include penetration testing, vulnerability management and threat modeling. Multi-layered security through tools such as firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems and antivirus software. Policy and procedures reviews and updates that ensure they remain compliant and effective against bad actors’ evolving tactics. Network monitoring with real-time notifications to identify signs of compromise such as unusual login and account activity, suspicious or unknown files, and evidence of device tampering. Network log management that documents activity across cloud environments, web applications, endpoints and other systems, creating a trail of examinable evidence. Threat hunting searches for indicators of compromise from bad actors who may have evaded detection and maintained a covert presence in the network. Patch management that pinpoints outdated devices and software, delivering necessary upgrades to close security holes and fix known issues. Security awareness initiatives such as training employees and establishing a communication channel they can use to report potential security issues. The right technology reduces the complexity of managing multiple security layers and makes the entire process feasible and efficient. For instance, the AlgoSec Network Security Policy Management platform proactively evaluates the impact of proposed policy changes to minimize risk, prevent outages and maintain compliance. Because it also integrates with leading vulnerability scanners, AlgoSec maps security vulnerabilities to their business applications, so you can effectively assess and prioritize risks based on reliable context data.
