I’ve been delving into network defense strategies lately and can’t stress enough how essential network segmentation is in preventing lateral movement during a cyber attack. In my experience, segmenting networks not only limits the impact of breaches but also simplifies incident response. Has anyone here implemented this in their operations, and if so, what tools have you found most effective?
Absolutely, network segmentation is crucial. I implemented VLANs on our network, which helped isolate critical systems and reduced our attack surface. It’s like having a firewall for different sections of your network.
I totally get that! We started using firewalls with segmenting policies and saw a huge reduction in response time. Have you considered adding intrusion detection systems to bolster your setup?
