Minutes to contain simulated attacks with Zero Networks
Before Zero Networks, we had a kind of free space for attackers to get in. When we would do a pen test, they would get in within five minutes, steal our data, and – even worse – ransom our data.

Challenge
ACT Commodities needed to secure its Azure Cloud environment, but reimplementing firewalls, adjusting configurations, and completing the other tasks necessary to protect servers proved too difficult. Still, pen tests revealed undeniable security gaps that ACT couldn’t afford to ignore.
Solution
With Zero Networks, ACT Commodities effortlessly segmented servers after just one month of automated learning. By integrating seamlessly with ACT’s environment and eliminating manual tagging, grouping, and policy creation and management, Zero Networks enabled ACT to rapidly strengthen their security posture.
Zero Networks is a solution which actually helps companies to secure their environment, especially the environments which are very difficult to segment. Zero Networks is seamless to install and very easy to maintain; it is a superb tool.

Result
After deploying Zero Networks, ACT Commodities immediately validated the solution’s value through a pen test, which revealed that attackers could no longer gain unauthorized access to secured systems – unwanted lateral movement was completely blocked and contained. When pen testers did gain network access, ACT uncovered the breach in just two minutes with Zero. Detailed insights from Zero Networks streamline auditing, while the solution’s robust automation capabilities mean it “actually runs itself,” according to Ouwehand.
Stop lateral movement, start your weekend.
