Microsegmentation
Network Isolation of Virtualized Workloads
Network operators must weigh their short-term needs against the long-term risks of vendor lock-in. By opting for open standards and multi-vendor solutions, they can achieve greater flexibility, interoperability, and scalability, reducing reliance on a single vendor. Key concerns include:
Limited Interoperability
Scalability Concerns
Customization Constraints
Cost
Network microsegmentation can be implemented in various forms, considering both physical and logical aspects, as well as the location where policies are applied:
Physical Microsegmentation
Logical Microsegmentation
Alternative Solutions
Modern network security solutions need to be comprehensive and complex to thwart possible intruders, but complex configurations are more prone to mistakes and vulnerabilities. Using Verity’s Intent Based Networking (IBN) solution, an operator can design a high level access profile that is implemented with multiple protocols and technologies.
