Embrace the multi-cloud and hybrid reality for security by 2025. Discover the advantages of both and the essential tools needed to manage diverse vendors and providers.
In IT change management, the ultimate question isn't the plan, but the impact. From reboots to cable moves, understanding what breaks is paramount. Network engineers always face this.
Security plugs into cloud automation tools like Terraform, ensuring security is deployed as infrastructure is built. This closes critical gaps and streamlines operations.
As organizations continue to adopt more applications and digital services, managing user authentication across multiple systems has become increasingly challenging. When user accounts are distributed across multiple platforms, provisioning and revoking access can become both time-consuming and difficult to manage. Ultimately, this increases the risk of unauthorized access and unmanaged credentials.
Lateral movement is the top AI threat. MCP protocol allows agents to communicate freely via HTTPS, posing major risks for unsecured environments. Network segmentation is crucial to control inter-agent communication and prevent data exfiltration.
GigaOm’s latest analysis highlights a clear shift in the market. As they note, “The standalone Secure Service Edge (SSE) market has largely disappeared, with leading vendors now offering complete SASE solutions that converge software-defined wide-area network (SD-WAN) and SSE into single-vendor platforms. Organizations increasingly favor this consolidated approach to reduce operational complexity and improve visibility.”
Leveraging AI for enhanced security: prioritizing real-time threat detection and anomaly monitoring. Ensuring secure platforms and utilization for advanced applications.
It has been a week since we announced Forward Predict at our Innovation Day broadcast, and I'm still taking it in. Since the inception of networking, the industry has been working without a safety net, making changes in the production network without knowing their impact beforehand. The result has been outages and security breaches. This wasn’t a lack of diligence, it was because there was no way to know, with certainty, what a change would do to the production network before it was pushed.
Modern SOCs face a difficult reality: attackers are moving faster while analysts are being asked to investigate more alerts than ever. Learn how agentic triage helps security teams move from alert overload to evidence-backed investigations. Rather than relying on opaque AI outputs, the approach uses expert-written playbooks and exposes the underlying queries and evidence so analysts can verify conclusions against raw network data.
Network security is operationally complex. It involves constant triage, approvals, and monitoring, spread across a range of tools, teams, and environments. Traditionally, this requires teams to do a significant amount of time-consuming, repetitive, and draining manual work, resulting in a longer MTTR and leaving many practitioners overwhelmed and burnt out. The problem isn’t in the tools they use – it’s in the work that happens between tools.
