Key Capabilities / Features

Microsegmentation is a foundational element of Zero Trust security, preventing malware and ransomware from spreading by stopping unauthorized lateral traffic between network resources and preventing catastrophic damage that can occur as a result. As a defense-in-depth strategy, it goes beyond perimeter firewalls, VLAN segmentation, and anti-virus solutions by enforcing micro-perimeters around all resources, applications, and endpoints.

ColorTokens’ Xshield Enterprise Microsegmentation Platform allows users to:
• Visualize network assets, applications, and dependencies with multi-dimensional flexibility, uncovering misconfigurations that expose organizations to risk.
• Use a single-pane-of-glass approach to administer microsegmentation for all possible points of breach: data center servers, cloud workloads, user endpoints, Kubernetes containers, OT/IoT devices, and even legacy OS devices.
• Centrally control multiple policy enforcement points for all types of resources: the hundreds (or thousands) of host-based OS firewalls in an environment, Kubernetes service mesh sidecar proxies for containerized applications, and the Xshield Gateway for IoT, OT, legacy OS devices, or wherever agentless enforcement is preferred.
• Immediately increase security posture with enterprise-wide controls on high-risk ports and sensitive flows—and progress to continuous security improvement with fine-grained application-specific controls.
• Use risk-scoring dashboards for progress reporting to the C-suite, line-of-business leaders, the Board of Directors, and regulatory oversight.
• Use Xshield’s non-disruptive workflow for implementing microsegmentation. It separates policy authoring from policy push and stimulates policies on historical data before enforcement.
• Leverage automated templates to help organizations define traffic policies to instantly shut down the spread of malware in the event of a breach.

How we are different

● With Xshield microsegmentation technology, customers can gain visibility across their entire networks, control user access to network resources, and completely block lateral traffic of malware and ransomware.
● Xshield provides a quick and cost-effective security solution that gives users immediate improvement in their cybersecurity posture in just a few hours.
● As a software-only solution, it eliminates the time and costs of capacity planning, hardware provisioning, installation, and configuration, and the on-going upgrades and maintenance effort needed by other solutions.
