Financial Services Cybersecurity
Respond to unrelenting security threats with fully scalable Zero Trust security
With Illumio’s comprehensive traffic mapping and workload-level segmentation capabilities, financial services can easily see their risks, block open pathways, and gain fine-grained control of application communications to better safeguard financial data and customer records.
Benefits
Achieve compliance and reduce risk
Use real-time application dependency mapping and apply environmental segmentation to comply with regulations like the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Isolate critical systems such as SWIFT.
- Validate the scope of covered systems.
- Create rules to detect anomalous behavior and connection attempts.
- Avoid breaking applications via policy modeling and targeted monitoring with live visual feedback and SOC alerts.
- Conduct centralized queries and reports on blocked connection attempts and policy deviations for compliance audits and security investigations.
Improve vulnerability and patch management
Overlay third-party vulnerability scan data with Illumio's application dependency map to identify an attacker’s potential attack pathways.
- Prioritize your patching strategy.
- Use segmentation as a compensating control.
- Avoid breaking applications via policy modeling and targeted monitoring with live visual feedback and security operations center (SOC) alerts.
Secure heterogeneous compute environments
Work from a unified dashboard and management console for architecting and operationalizing security across micro-perimeters.
- Create security segmentation policies across bare-metal, virtual machines, clouds, containers, load balancers, and switches.
- Program segmentation granularity—from environmental separation (coarse-grained) to process-level control (fine-grained).
Activate enforcement points you already have
Avoid the costs and complexities of re-architecting your network or building out new firewall resources. With Illumio, you can:
- Program the existing host-based stateful firewalls in every workload (with no kernel modifications) and program access control lists (ACLs) into bare-metal, virtual machines, load balancers, and switches.
- Enforce data-in-motion encryption by programming IPsec connectivity between Linux or Windows workloads without requiring changes or an upgrade to the network infrastructure.
- Secure enterprise Microsoft applications with out-of-the-box Segmentation Templates.
Progressively build your Zero Trust security
Orchestrate your Zero Trust segmentation program with comprehensive control and real-time analytics.
- Gain live visibility into connections and flows across financial applications.
- Understand your risk exposure to cyberattacks with the combination of application dependency maps and vulnerability maps.
- Create segmentation policies that follow the workload.
- Continuously detect for changes, unauthorized connection attempts, and policy deviations.
- Integrate with third-party SIEM, SOAR and other orchestration tools.
