Internal Firewalls for Dummies

Organizations can no longer rely on edge firewalls alone to provide network security. Once attackers get past an edge firewall, they can move laterally to high-value assets. This book illustrates how internal firewalls can help your organization secure east-west network traffic and prevent attackers’ lateral movements.

In the Internal Firewalls for Dummies Guide, you’ll learn:

• The different types of network traffic and the firewall types that protect them
• How distributed internal firewalls combine the best of hardware-based enterprise edge firewalls and software-based micro-segmentation solutions
• How organizations successfully deploy distributed internal firewalls
