Microsegmentation for containers and microservices: best practices


Details
There is a reason why traditional network-based segmentation solutions will not work in cloud-native environments, and that’s because they are not built for it! A Kubernetes-native approach is required to isolate containerized workloads within a deployment. Kubernetes is an open system with dynamic infrastructure; microsegmentation is the only way to isolate and protect workloads from threats that can move laterally.
During this webinar, we’ll dive into:
- What microsegmentation is and how it can limit the blast radius of a threat
- Understand the unified and dynamic segmentation model for Containers, VMs, and Bare Metal
- How to create security policies as code for consistent enforcement at workload level
After a 30-minute talk there’ll be a 15-minute Q&A, for which we encourage you to submit questions in advance.
A webinar recording and related materials will be shared with all attendees after the event.
