Microsegmentation: the unsung hero of cybersecurity (and why it should be your top priority)

But once someone gets inside, there's no front desk checking IDs, no elevator security and the same outdated lock on every unit. An intruder can roam freely, entering any apartment they choose. Microsegmentation is the internal security system. It's the keycard for the elevator, the camera in the hallway, the unique lock on your door. It's what stops one compromised device from becoming a full-blown breach.
