Collaboration Unveiled: Illumio and Netskope Secure Zero Trust Agreement
In a significant move to bolster digital security, Illumio and Netskope have joined forces to offer a combined Zero Trust Security (ZTS) solution. This integration aims to provide organizations with a robust and adaptable zero-trust architecture, enabling them to scale their security efforts without compromising on protection.
The combined platform offers a more resilient organization by increasing security across the board. With the integration, organizations can achieve full visibility across their hybrid environments, ensuring they stay in control of user-to-application and application-to-application traffic.
One of the key benefits of this partnership is the real-time view and dynamic policy updates it provides. This feature enhances the protection of critical applications by allowing organizations to quickly identify and respond to potential security threats. The real-time view also helps organizations better understand risk end-to-end, providing them with a comprehensive view of their security posture.
The integration of Illumio and Netskope also offers enhanced protection for end users from non-compliant workloads. Netskope's ZTNA policy can block access between users and potentially compromised workloads or workloads in segmented environments. This feature ensures that only authorized and secure workloads are accessible, thereby reducing the risk of a security breach.
Moreover, the integration provides a solution for organizations seeking to improve their visibility and security in hybrid environments. The security policies in Netskope are automatically updated based on metadata from Illumio, eliminating the need to rewrite rules as workload attributes change. This feature ensures that the security measures remain effective, even as the environment evolves.
The partnership between Illumio and Netskope also emphasizes a commitment to Zero Trust, including Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). This approach ensures that no user or device is trusted by default, and every access request is verified and validated. This verification helps to prevent unauthorized access and mitigate the risk of a data breach.
In conclusion, the integration of Illumio and Netskope offers a powerful solution for organizations seeking to improve their visibility and security in hybrid environments. By providing a more adaptable zero-trust architecture, the integration reduces the need for constant rule updates, making it easier for organizations to scale their security efforts. With this partnership, organizations can rest assured that their critical applications and data are better protected, and their risk management efforts are more effective.
