🚀 We’re excited to announce that Elisity has raised a $37M Series B round from Insight Partners to fuel AI innovation in identity-based microsegmentation today. Their approach is tackling critical infrastructure and healthcare cybersecurity challenges head-on. “Elisity is addressing a critical segmentation need within our customers’ infrastructure, but our identity-based approach and continued AI investments will ensure we can leverage our single source of truth on network assets to redefine network security with more real-time, adaptable security policies,” said James Winebrenner, CEO of Elisity. “Elisity has surpassed all our expectations,” said Max Everett, Shaw Industries’ CISO. We deployed it at two of our sites in less than an hour, and by the next day, we were confidently implementing policies.” For healthcare orgs like Main Line Health, “Elisity’s identity-based microsegmentation brings tremendous capabilities…as a critical control point for containing ransomware,” notes CISO Aaron Weismann. “Elisity could be quickly and effectively implemented and scaled to address a fast-growing need across thousands of IT and OT environments,” said Stephen Ward, Managing Director at Insight Partners. With its centralized policy management and AI capabilities, Elisity is well-positioned to transform how organizations safeguard networks in an era of escalating cyber threats.

Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) Software
Cognitive Trust is Elisity’s cloud-native and cloud-delivered solution for identity-based microsegmentation and least privilege access of users, applications, and devices. It makes network security easy and reduces the attack surface to the maximum, limiting the blast radius of ransomware attacks, advanced persistent threats, and other business-impacting exploits. With Elisity’s innovative approach to network security, there’s no longer a need to micro-manage expensive East-West firewalls, NACs, ACLs, VLANs, PVLANs, VRFs, and VPNs anymore. Furthermore, Elisity’s customers praise the non-disruptive nature of the solution deployment and operation: there is no need for IP re-addressing and network grooming, and regular lifecycle infrastructure and system upgrades can occur without security being a major impediment.

Check this out, Cloud Control Center release 15.7 brought with it some pretty killer features for our customers. I got excited...so I made a video 🤠. In the comments I posted a #tourial for you to play with. Oh yea, if you aren't as lazy as I am, you can do a little reading about this release in the blog posted below as well. Some feature highlights of 15.7: ✅ Local Policy Groups ✅ Asset Locking ✅ Advanced RBAC ✅ ...and a lot more (see the release notes below) #segmentation

TeamViewer, a popular RMM (Remote Monitoring and Management) tool vendor, reported that its recent breach by cyberthreat actor Midnight Blizzard/APT29 resulted in limited damage, thanks to network segmentation architecture that prevented lateral movement across environments. In the last six months, the NSA and CISA have issued guidelines highlighting network segmentation as a core pillar of a Zero Trust program. This breach also demonstrates the importance of software supply chain security. RMM tools are widely used by enterprise IT teams and managed service providers. There have been too many breaches of #RMM tools for them not to be high on the list of tools to build robust Zero Trust policies for. 💡 We all have a role in protecting our organization and adopting a philosophy that no entity inside or outside the network is inherently trustworthy. The TeamViewer breach is a good reminder of that. ➡ Read our blog on the breach and why network segmentation was critical in limiting the blast zone.

The teams at Elisity are thrilled that Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has released recommendations on adopting Zero Trust to enhance network security. They realize that many organizations are planning or have started their transition away from network security architectures based on legacy VPNs, complex firewall rules, and never-ending NAC and 802.1x projects. CISA states, "Without strict network segmentation and adherence to the principles of least privilege and zero trust.." and "By using risk-based access control policies to deliver decisions through policy decision engines…" and "Adhering to ZT principles to any degree will enhance your organization's ability to secure information, keeping it safe from threats and data loss." Read the guidance in the report here: https://lnkd.in/eEAzeCpH Learn more about how #Elisity enables enterprises to accelerate the transition to explicit identity-based access policies aligned with business objectives.
