Description

To safeguard essential business assets, it is crucial to implement network segmentation; however, conventional methods can be quite complicated. In contrast, Cisco TrustSec's software-defined segmentation offers a more straightforward solution compared to traditional VLAN-based approaches. This system utilizes security groups to define policies, and it is not only open via IETF but also compatible with OpenDaylight and various third-party and Cisco platforms. With Cisco TrustSec, you can segment devices without the need to redesign your entire network, allowing for seamless management of access to enterprise resources. This method enhances security by restricting the lateral movement of threats through micro-segmentation, while also allowing for rapid scaling and consistent policy enforcement across the network. Additionally, it simplifies the management of security policies across different domains. By leveraging Cisco ISE, organizations can effectively manage TrustSec security group tags and exchange information with other group-based policy frameworks. According to an analysis conducted by Forrester Consulting, customers utilizing TrustSec software-defined segmentation in their operational networks experienced an impressive 80 percent reduction in operational costs and were able to implement policy changes 98 percent faster, demonstrating the significant advantages of this advanced approach. Ultimately, embracing Cisco TrustSec can lead to increased efficiency and improved security posture for businesses navigating complex network environments.
