Micro-segmentation is a method to logically create network segments and completely control traffic within and between the segments. Specifically, it controls workloads in data centers, as well as in multi-cloud environments, while also restricting the spread of lateral threats in the data centers.
The most important benefit for companies when adopting micro-segmentation to their Zero Trust strategy was that it proactively mitigated risk exposure from threats. At the same time, it provided with more secure applications.
