Cloud management enhances visibility across a hybrid network, processes network security policy changes in minutes, and reduces configuration risks But what does effective cloud management look like Webinars How to Manage Your Cloud Journey Episode 1 of Keeping Up-to-Date with Your Network Security Securing your data was once much simpler, and has grown more complex in recent years. As the workforce becomes more distributed, so does your data. Spreading your data across multiple public and private clouds complicates your network. While data used to sit behind lock and key in guarded locations, today’s data sits in multiple locations and geographies, and is made up of multiple public clouds, private clouds and other on-premises network devices. This is why managing your cloud journey can be tiresome and complicated. Enter cloud management. Cloud management enhances visibility across a hybrid network, processes network security policy changes in minutes, and reduces configuration risks. But how can you leverage your cloud management to reap these benefits? What does effective cloud management look like, and how can you achieve it when workloads, sensitive data, and information are so widely dispersed? In this episode we’ll discuss: How to manage multiple workloads on the cloud What successful security management looks like for today’s enterprises How to achieve simple, effective security management for your hybrid network May 4, 2021 Alex Hilton Chief Executive at Cloud Industry Forum (CIF) Stephen Owen Esure Group Oren Amiram Director Product Management, Algosec Relevant resources A Pragmatic Approach to Network Security Across Your Hybrid Cloud Environment Keep Reading State of cloud security: Concerns, challenges, and incidents Read Document Choose a better way to manage your network Choose a better way to manage your network Work email* First name* Last name* Company* country* Select country...

Energy supplier keeps the lights on with automated network change management Organization Energy Supplier Industry Utilities & Energy Headquarters International Download case study Share Customer
success stories "AlgoSec has saved us a lot of time in managing our rule base.” Large energy supplier empowers internal stakeholders and streamlines network security policy change process Background The company is the provider of electricity and gas for their country. They are responsible for the planning, construction, operation, maintenance and global technical management of both these grids and associated infrastructures. The Challenge In order to provide power to millions of people, the company runs more than twenty IT and OT firewalls from multiple vendors that are hosted in multiple data centers throughout the country. Some of the challenges included: Lack of visibility over a complex architecture – With multiple networks, IT managers needed to know which network is behind which firewall and connect traffic flows to firewall rules. Change management processes were being managed by network diagrams created in Microsoft Visio and Microsoft Excel spreadsheets – tools that were not designed for network security policy management. Thousands of rules – Each firewall may have thousands of rules each. Many of these rules are unneeded and introduce unnecessary risk. Managing the maze of rules was time consuming and took time away from other strategic initiatives. Unnecessary requests – Business stakeholders were requesting status information about network traffic and making duplicate and unnecessary change requests for items covered by existing rules. The Solution The company was searching for a solution that provided: Visibility into their network topology, including traffic flows. Optimization of their firewall rules. Alerts before time-based rules expire. Automatic implementation of their rule base onto their firewall devices. They implemented AlgoSec Firewall Analyzer and AlgoSec FireFlow, as well as AlgoBot, AlgoSec’s ChatOps solution. 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. AlgoBot is an intelligent chatbot that handles network security policy management tasks. AlgoBot answers business user’s questions, submitted in plain English, and automatically assists with security policy change management processes – without requiring manual inputs or additional research. The Results Some of the ways the company benefitted from using AlgoSec include: Visibility and topology mapping – They are able to get a picture of their entire network and view traffic flows to each network device. Optimized firewall rules – They are able to adjust the placement of their rules, placing their most used rules higher in the rule base, improving performance, and also checking for unused objects or rules to clean up, removing unused rules, improving firewall performance. Improved communication and transparency for time-based rules – Before time-based rules expire (rule with an expiration date), the requester is automatically notified and asked if the rule should be extended or removed. Better, more refined rule requests – By first gathering information from AlgoBot, rule requests are better focused. Internal customers are able to check if rules are already in place before making requests, therefore avoiding requests that are already covered by existing rules. Empower internal stakeholders – Able to save the IT team’s time by empowering internal stakeholders to use AlgoBot to get the answers themselves to traffic queries. Met change implementation SLAs – By implementing their rules with AlgoSec, the company meets their internal SLAs for change implementation. Streamlined auditing processes – By documenting the changes they made in the firewalls, who made them, and when, their audit processes are streamlined. Zero-touch automation – Automatically implementing rules in multiple firewalls simultaneously ensures policy consistency across multiple devices, while preserving staff resources. This also eliminates the need to use the management consoles from individual vendors, saving time and reducing misconfigurations. Staff efficiencies – Hundreds of monthly change requests are able to be managed by a single staff member. He would not be able to do it without AlgoSec. The company switched from a competing solution because it was more user-friendly and provided greater visibility than the competing solution they were previously using. They are also impressed with AlgoSec’s scalability. “The initial setup is really easy. It has been running flawlessly since installation. Even upgrades are pretty straightforward and have never given us problems,” they noted. Schedule time with one of our experts

In the context of the Zero Trust vs. least privilege debate, this post explores the difference between Zero Trust and least privilege, how the Zero Trust security model and least privilege access control work together, and where each fits in a modern security program. Organizations need both Zero Trust and least privilege. These two fundamental security approaches verify all requests and restrict all permissions. This article explains the operation of each security method as well as their distinct approaches to defense. It also provides guidance on their combined use for enhanced security. Zero trust vs least privilege Select a size Which network Can AlgoSec be used for continuous compliance monitoring? Yes, AlgoSec supports continuous compliance monitoring. As organizations adapt their security policies to meet emerging threats and address new vulnerabilities, they must constantly verify these changes against the compliance frameworks they subscribe to. AlgoSec can generate risk assessment reports and conduct internal audits on-demand, allowing compliance officers to monitor compliance performance in real-time. Security professionals can also use AlgoSec to preview and simulate proposed changes to the organization’s security policies. This gives compliance officers a valuable degree of lead-time before planned changes impact regulatory guidelines and allows for continuous real-time monitoring. Zero Trust vs. Least Privilege: What's the Difference and How Do They Work Together? In the context of the Zero Trust vs. least privilege debate, this post explores the difference between Zero Trust and least privilege, how the Zero Trust security model and least privilege access control work together, and where each fits in a modern security program. Organizations need both Zero Trust and least privilege. These two fundamental security approaches verify all requests and restrict all permissions. This article explains the operation of each security method as well as their distinct approaches to defense. It also provides guidance on their combined use for enhanced security. Zero Trust vs. Traditional Security Security operations previously focused on creating an unbreakable defensive boundary. The rule was: Trust the people and devices inside the network. Be suspicious of everything on the outside. This "castle-and-moat" security model proved effective when technology systems were run from restricted server rooms. But cloud computing, SaaS solutions, and hybrid work environments have resulted in traditional system perimeters dissolving. Cloud, SaaS, and remote endpoints now make up a fragmented and complex “frontline,” with inconsistent controls that create gaps attackers can exploit. Malicious actors know that if they find one unlocked door—usually a stolen password—they can often wander freely through the entire network. This is precisely what the Zero Trust security model was designed to prevent. What Is the Zero Trust Security Model? The Zero Trust security model follows a single core belief surrounding verification. The new rule is: All users and systems must require verification before being granted access. Under this model, there is no free pass. Every single time someone or something tries to access a resource, they must authenticate their identity and prove they have access rights to the resources they seek. What Are the Building Blocks of Zero Trust Access Management? Making a Zero Trust architecture work requires a few key components: Policy decision point (PDP): The PDP operates as the central regulatory system of the entire network. It's where you define and store all the rules about who has access to what. Policy enforcement point (PEP): This is your security guard. The system functions as a security checkpoint that protects all resources while implementing the policies defined by the PDP. Trust algorithm: This evaluates various real-time indicators (e.g., user identity, device health status, location data, and data sensitivity) to generate a trust score for each request. Zero Trust Architecture in Practice Implementing Zero Trust requires organizations to establish ongoing verification processes for all identity and device access, as well as network, workload, and data security: Devices: Companies must verify the security posture of all laptops and phones through software updates and security tool verification. The testing process identifies non-compliant devices, which are placed in a digital waiting area until they achieve safety standards. Networks: Micro-segmentation is the main player here. By dividing your network into tiny, isolated zones, you prevent an intruder from moving around freely. All traffic between servers (east-west) needs to be encrypted and pass through a PEP checkpoint. Applications & workloads: Applications, together with services, require robust identity systems. This can be done using methods like mTLS to ensure services are securely talking to each other, and by enforcing strict authorization checks at the front door (gateways) of every application. Data : Are you fully aware of what your data cons ists of and its level of sensitivity? The process of classification and labeling enables organizations to develop smart policies that implement least privilege access controls, preventing sensitive information from leaving the organization. The Least Privilege Principle and Least Privilege Access Control Following the least privilege principle, least privilege access control requires that all users and non-human identities receive permissions that exactly match their required tasks and only remain active during the time needed to complete those tasks. Limiting permissions to specific times and tasks: Minimizes system vulnerabilities Restricts damage from compromised credentials Prevents unauthorized system access Makes audit processes easier and regulatory requirements more achievable Provides clear visibility into all access elevation activities Teams use three main operational controls to implement least privilege in their daily operations: RBAC/ABAC function together to restrict resource access based on job titles and user characteristics ; RBAC handles basic access control, while ABAC offers detailed context-based authorization checks. Just-in-time (JIT) allows a user to ask for special permissions for a short period to perform a specific task, with any rights granted terminated when the work is complete. Time-boxed tokens grant access credentials with an expiration date, so even if a token is stolen, exposure is short‑lived and any impact contain ed. How Do You Implement Least Privilege Access Control? The implementation of least privilege access control requires a methodical approach to provide each identity with the smallest set of permissions needed to perform its duties for a limited duration. These are the essential steps for successful implementation: Inventory and map privileges: You cannot protect what you do not even know is yours. This step demands complete identification of human and machine identities to establish their current permissions and necessary access permissions. Shrink service account scopes: After creating a map, you can begin to limit the permissions of accounts that have excessive access. Credential rotation and exceptions: Organizations need to adopt credential rotation and temporary identity systems for automated operations while also making just-in-time access their default security approach. The Difference Between Zero Trust and Least Privilege The discussion of Zero Trust vs. least privilege comes down to the two concepts dealing with different security issues. Zero Trust vs. Least Privilege The table below presents a clear comparison. Feature Zero Trust Least Privilege Scope & Purpose The overall game plan for securing the entire organization A core access‑management principle limiting each identity to the minimum permissions required for specific tasks/resources Decision Focus Evaluation of whether to trust the present request Stopping users from getting unintended and extra access Primary Goal To get rid of assumed trust and verify everything, always To limit the damage if an account or system gets compromised Ownership Usually driven by the security and platform architecture teams Put into practice by the people who own the data and applications Conclusion Zero Trust and least privilege security solutions deliver a major security improvement when deployed together, despite their distinct implementation methods. Their combination significantly reduces the potential damage from a breach, makes it much harder for attackers to move around, and delivers a crystal-clear record of who is accessing what and why. If you’re evaluating platforms to operationalize these practices, AlgoSec can help by: Modeling application connectivity Orchestrating network security policy changes Supporting micro-segmentation Maintaining continuous compliance across hybrid and multi‑cloud environments All these capabilities reinforce both Zero Trust and least privilege.
