The Forrester Total Economic Impact of Illumio Zero Trust Segmentation (ZTS) study has found the company’s platform delivered a total benefit of $10.2 million over three years.

The move builds upon Illumio’s existing engagement with AWS and will reduce risk, build resilience, and stop the spread of ransomware and other breaches.

Illumio predicts breach containment, consolidation, and better governance as priorities for 2023 and warns of increased threats to healthcare and energy.

“As we watch threats evolve and breaches become more devastating, the need to implement Zero Trust strategies has never been more urgent."

Organisations can't stop breaches, but they can prevent them from spreading and becoming catastrophic incidents by using zero trust security.

"With this funding, we will accelerate our innovation in product and engineering, further invest in customer success, and build upon our global partner strategy.”

The partnership will see Spectrum integrate Illumio's micro-segmentation technology into its managed services solutions for enterprise organisations across New Zealand.

The majority of Australia’s IT teams still rely heavily on firewalls and VLANs to protect their critical data from being breached, despite evidence the legacy technologies cannot adequately protect against new and emerging threats.

The decision to commit to a full channel-only strategic vision in APAC comes alongside the expansion of its channel program and supporting infrastructure.

Applications from Illumio, Obsidian and SecurityAdvisor address security use cases that support hybrid workforces.

“As organisations were forced to transform overnight to allow for remote work, a host of endpoint security issues that have either been ignored or invisible until now were brought to the forefront."

Even if you’re not in the financial services industry (FSI), you’ve probably already heard of CPS 234 – the new standard for data protection set forth by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA).

"Regardless of industry or size, every organisation has crown jewel or regulated assets running in their environment."

Microsegmentation is the new ‘east-west’ frontier that looks at all of the network connections an intruder can use to move laterally through your environment.

Illumio and Qualys are joining forces to combine threat data and application dependency mapping to show potential cyber attack paths in real time.

“The ability of bad actors to move freely inside data centres and the cloud has been a known security issue for more than a decade."

"The ability to drive segmentation in depth throughout the datacenter & cloud can be a critical next step in securing datacenter & cloud environment."

The Illumio Attack Surface Assessment Program (ASAP) has been created to give enterprises MRI-like visibility inside the data center and cloud.
