AlgoSec, a global cyber security leader in securing application connectivity, has announced its new product, AlgoSec ObjectFlow, a network security object management solution for hybrid environments, spanning cloud networks, SDNs and on-premises.
According to Rik Turner, the Principal Analyst at Omdia, “In the complex environments that ensue from modern architectures, such as SDN, as well as hybrid and multi-cloud environments, there is a very real risk of overlapping objects, making their management from a security perspective a real headache. There is clearly the potential for automation to be applied to further streamline management.”
AlgoSec ObjectFlow
AlgoSec ObjectFlow offers the most comprehensive visibility and control of network objects, across an entire hybrid environment. As a turnkey Software as a Service (SaaS) based solution, customers can leverage AlgoSec ObjectFlow’s advantages within minutes upon activation.
ObjectFlow addresses a dire need in the market for optimal network object management"
Professor Avishai Wool, the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) and Co-Founder of AlgoSec, stated, “ObjectFlow addresses a dire need in the market for optimal network object management, as most enterprise networks rely on a vast number of network objects that often refer to the same addresses in various forms, creating duplications and inconsistencies that can slow down changes to network connectivity and security policies. As a result, this leads to an increased risk of misconfigurations, outages and security breaches.”
Key benefits that AlgoSec ObjectFlow delivers to IT, network and security experts include:
- Single source of truth
ObjectFlow is a central repository of all network objects used in security policies, allowing customers to maintain consistency of definitions, across the multiple management systems, used by various vendors.
- Object discovery and complete object visibility
ObjectFlow helps enterprises tap into SDNs and firewalls to discover all the objects on a network. Unique naming conventions can be created and organised, based on individual needs and from multiple vendors.
- Automation of object changes
ObjectFlow makes automation of object changes possible from a central location. With official vendor API Integrations, manual labour is avoided, thereby allowing for changes to be made within minutes instead of days.
- Risk reduction
ObjectFlow provides full visibility and uniformity over network objects, breaking down organisational silos. With these processes in place, objects can be easily identifiable, thereby allowing networks to be completely secure.
Effective management of network security objects
“Network security objects are the bread and butter of your network security posture,” said Eran Shiff, the Vice President - Product at AlgoSec, adding “With ObjectFlow, we give organisations a simple, effective way to manage their network security objects in a centralised object management solution. It helps IT teams to secure application connectivity and reduce the time spent by the security team, increasing efficiency across the board.”
