We are proud to share with you information on our becoming an official partner of Illumio, the world leader in microsegmentation and protection offered in the Zero Trust model. “We are working very hard to meet our clients’ requirements, to follow current industry best practices and to offer most effective, cutting-edge security technology. That’s why we are constantly expanding our portfolio and building our expertise in areas of micro-segementation, zero trust policy, public cloud, container workloads. Partnership with Illumio is another step in pursuing this strategy” - says Łukasz Kułacz, Management Board of Apius Technologies S.A.. 

Our clients who pursue the strategy of digital transformation or technological modernization, more and more often encounter the problem of technological mismatch. Legacy network security products cannot address the requirements of modern environments while the new generation products are ineffective in protection of legacy ones. Illumio offers a practical implementation of Zero-Trust model concepts for physical servers, virtual machines and containers both in private data centres and the public cloud as well as in the hybrid model. In each of the above cases, Illumio ensures full visibility of network traffic, transparent visualization of application dependencies and an opportunity to enforce unified micro and nano-segmentation policies whose format is independent of the underlying architecture and technology stack.

A team of our experts will provide the necessary expertise and support during the whole process of the Zero Trust model implementation. Starting with the analysis and design phase, through the proof of concept (PoC) stage, the implementation, up to the stage of post-implementation or integration with SIEM/SOAR platforms, the client will be offered guidance, support, or even full managed service.  “We have both extensive technical expertise and broad experience gained when carrying out micro-segmentation projects. Thanks to that, we can efficiently implement those systems while reducing labour intensity and risk on the part of our clients” - adds Łukasz Kułacz.

 

About Illumio:

Since 2013, Illumio has been providing clients with tools to protect IT resources, to reduce the attack surface and minimalize risks related to infrastructure compromise and malicious lateral movement. These solutions ensure, in real time, visibility of traffic across the infrastructure and applications, helping intuitively understand the potential risk related to visible flows and discovered application dependencies.

Illumio provides a unified management console for all of its infrastructure components and enables to define security polices, which are based on business roles of protected components. This approach provides flexibility, granularity and ensures protection even on the nano-segmentation level. Additionally, in conjunction with information about vulnerabilities, Illumio offers an enhanced visibility of threats and prioritizes protection of systems that are most vulnerable to an attack.

Illumio solution is based on lightweight agents, offers protection on the operational system/container cluster level, using embedded native OS filtering mechanisms to minimalize impact on the client’s machines. This approach reduces risks related to performance degradation or incompatibility.

Illumio solutions have been acknowledged and highly positioned by both Forrester, an independent advisor and consultant, and by many clients –  Morgan Stanley, BNP Paribas or Salesforce to name a few.
