Zentera Systems to Address Security for Hybrid Environments at Cyber Security Chicago 2017

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Zentera Systems, Inc., the leader in security and connectivity for workloads in hybrid computing environments, today announced the company's participation in the inaugural Cyber Security Chicago event, Chicago, IL, October 18-19. The event will see leading organizations in cybersecurity coming together to showcase their latest defenses. Zentera's VP of Technology and Products, Mike Ichiriu, is speaking about the elements of advanced security for hybrid environments and how enterprises can prepare themselves to become cloud-ready with Zentera's CoIP Security Enclavetm solution.

Cloud adoption, together with today's complex information technology landscape, is prompting new approaches to security. The cloud's benefits are clear to enterprises, but cloud environments today lack enterprise-grade security and defense-in-depth. Furthermore, security threats are coming from both inside and outside of the conventional corporate datacenter. Enterprises need consistent security across hybrid environments to meet their dynamic business requirements. CoIP Security Enclaves protect applications and workloads by connecting them across a unified overlay network called an enclave.

CoIP Enclaves are a type of software-defined perimeter, providing what is known as security segmentation. They offer multiple networking and security features to shield applications, including network encryption, and both east-west and north-south micro-segmentation along with CoIP Application Interlocktm to limit network access to specified applications. Because CoIP uses an overlay approach, enclaves can span across multiple environments. Enterprises can meet compliance requirements and protect their security-sensitive applications and workloads regardless of their physical locations. Furthermore, CoIP can be set up without changing existing infrastructure in less than a day.

"I'm honored to join the cybersecurity community in Chicago at this critical juncture in addressing IT attacks," said Ichiriu. "We at Zentera particularly want to draw attention to vulnerabilities exposed by trusted external access to sensitive corporate data and applications. Our CoIP Enclavetm product can shield just what your company values most with minimal effort."
