  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FINE GRAINED FORWARD TESTING FOR A ZTNA ENVIRONMENT
    Publication number: 20240048564
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are discussed for forward testing rule sets at a granularity that is less than all activity on the network. In some cases, the granularity is that of an individual application.
    Type: Application

  • Optimizing a security configuration of a networked environment
    Patent number: 11368488
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses enable one or more security microservices to optimize a security configuration of a networked environment by applying security policies to resource groups passively to determine whether network sets, resource groups, or security policies should be modified, prior to active enforcement. When security policies are applied passively, security actions that are performed in response to a violation of security policy do not impact network traffic. The one or more security microservices evaluate the results of the passive application of security policies to determine whether there is at least one recommended modification to network sets, resource groups, or security policies. When there is at least one recommended modification, the modification is applied.
