1. Dynamic Attack Surface• IoT & apps

• Cloud

• Targeted Attacks

2. Human Errors• Limited Resources

• More “stuff” / complicated

• DevOps (automation)

HOT CHALLENGES

3

ACCIDENTAL ARCHITECTURE

• Network Complexity

» Network design evolves rapidly

» Attack surface along with it

• Organizational Complexity

• Multiple teams for different functions

• Network, OS, Security Team, …

• Solution Complexity

• Many products / vendors / contracts

• Training

• Log overlap & inconsistencies

1. Exchange of Dynamic Context

Information

» User login to session context

» Device profiling / posture context

» Security tagging

2. Exchange of IoCs

» Automatic intelligence sharing among

devices

» Updated on the fly

» Can be multivendor / independent 3rd party

WHAT IOT PROBLEM?

• Your attack surface changes every time…• A new application is installed

• A new device enters your network

• A new VM service is connected

• A user signs up for a new social account

• ….

• Security Fabric…• Learns every change across the network

• Audits the changes for best practices & anomalies

• Analyzes the attack surface against the configuration, real-time data and business rules
