FireMon, a leading network security policy management company that brings visibility, control, agility and automation to enterprise cloud and hybrid network infrastructure, has announced an integration with Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) to simplify enterprise adoption of Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architectures.
As enterprises move to the cloud, they are adopting hybrid network security architectures that incorporate cloud-first technologies like SASE to improve flexibility, performance and agility. Using FireMon Security Manager, joint customers visualise and manage Zscaler Advanced Cloud Firewall policies in ZIA alongside traditional firewalls and other network security policy enforcement points. This simplifies migration and ensures continuous visibility, control and compliance across hybrid network environments.
Leveraging the APIs from Zscaler and FireMon, FireMon applies real-time policy analysis to ensure effective enforcement and network segmentation is in place. Joint customers can visualise configuration, policy and rule usage statistics across all network security enforcement points through a single pane of glass. This centralised management approach allows customers to validate policies against regulatory or corporate standards, analyse access across the network and monitor for change to pinpoint risks quickly. Together, FireMon and Zscaler improves a customer’s security posture and simplifies governance and compliance with automated reporting, eliminating the need to swivel on multiple consoles.
“Through our partnership with Zscaler, our customers can move faster towards Zero Trust, cloud-centric network and security architectures,” said Satin H. Mirchandani, President and CEO of FireMon. “Our partnership gives them a unified view to manage policy which reduces complexity and improves security agility and responsiveness.”
