Using machine learning and AI to identify suspicious activity, the solution acts on intelligence as it learns to better protect.

Illumio zero trust segmentation
Security incidents and ransomware attacks are rife, with organisations often struggling to protect their data and keep their lights on during an attack. When breaches occur, it’s often not the initial entry that causes the most damage, but when the attacker moves throughout an organisation to reach critical data and assets. This is the problem that Zero Trust Segmentation (ZTS), a technology category pioneered by Illumio, solves.
Illumio ZTS stops cyberattacks from spreading across organisations to dramatically reduce their impact, protecting sensitive data and allowing for faster recovery. It visualises all traffic flows between workloads, devices, and the internet, sets granular segmentation policies to control communications, and isolates high-value assets and compromised systems proactively or in response to active attacks.
Illumio ZTS is available in Australia, having been deployed across many industries across APAC including manufacturing, aviation, banking and insurance, energy and utilities, natural resources, hospitality, education and technology.
