From industrial control system monitoring and CCTV feeds to IoT and mobile devices, every new connection introduces a new vector for cyberattack, and the surface area for such vulnerabilities has exploded. As such, there is a pressing, global need for more effective tools to protect critical networks from attacks that might cause severe financial, physical, or personal damage.
Best practices for protecting these networks involve simplifying, reducing, and isolating network connections, including segmenting networks from one another by creating either a virtual or physical separation between them. However, this separation can prevent data from getting to the systems and users that need it. The challenge has been how to limit access, minimize risk, and keep these networks secure while getting valuable operational data to authorized users when it’s needed.
