Traditional network security doesn’t work for today’s modern workforce

With the rise of the mobile workforce and cloud transformation, the traditional network we once knew can no longer be trusted. Employees now work remotely from home, cafes, as well as around the world and companies are moving to cloud infrastructure such as AWS, Google Cloud, Azure. Given this, the traditional hardware-based VPNs and Firewalls we’ve relied on for over 30 years are no longer adequate in securing remote and on-premise access.

In a site-centric network, employees must be present on-site or use a VPN to connect with headquarter offices in order to access security services or the cloud environment. There is no segmentation or user awareness within the network. Cloud environments and SaaS services are not being properly protected and in some cases are being exposed to public internet, leading to massive data breaches. One example of a huge data leak is the recent Capital One breach, which resulted in the leak of nearly 106 million of the bank’s customers’ and applicants’ personal information.

That’s where Perimeter 81 comes into play.
