    Overview

    Akamai Guardicore Segmentation is a software-based microsegmentation solution that provides the simplest, fastest, and most intuitive way to enforce Zero Trust principles. It enables you to prevent malicious lateral movement in your network through precise segmentation policies, visuals of activity within your IT environment, and network security alerts. Akamai Guardicore Segmentation works across your data centers, multicloud environments, and endpoints. It is faster to deploy than infrastructure segmentation approaches and provides you with unparalleled visibility and control of your network.

    Edgewise makes microsegmentation impossibly simple, accomplished with one click! Building segments and policies are automated by machine learning. Policies automatically update when applications are upgraded, new apps are added or if the environment auto scales. No changes to your network are required with Edgewise's software-based segmentation.
