Mini MFA Guide: Extend MFA Beyond Login. Close the Privileged Pathways Attackers Rely On.
A 4-step playbook for enforcing just-in-time authentication on admin ports and sensitive systems, so lateral movement highways stay closed by default
Most enterprise risk today isn’t driven by sophisticated exploits or novel zero-days that enable initial access. Instead, threat actors rely on valid logins and normal, trusted access paths that traditional MFA wasn’t built to protect.
To stop identity-based threats from escalating into full-blown business crises, security teams need network-layer MFA that reinforces granular segmentation without adding operational complexity.
Download this guide to learn:
- Why conventional MFA – which operates at layer 7 of the OSI model – leaves privileged ports and protocols, legacy systems, and other non-SaaS assets unprotected.
- How network-layer MFA integrates into the network infrastructure at layer 3 of the OSI model and closes traditional MFA gaps.
- A multi-layered approach to blocking identity-based attacks and enforcing just-in-time authentication across privileged internal pathways.
"When I first saw Zero Networks, I walked away saying, this is too good to be true. When we put it in production, it was like a dream came true."
"My first impression was, it is too good to be true. The ease of deployment was shocking to me. It’s a simple and elegant solution to a very difficult problem."
"Zero Networks has become a core component of our security stack. It is something that we cannot live without any longer."
"Zero Networks is a game changer. The military-grade security it delivers across segmentation, access, and user rights, makes it a new cornerstone technology."
"I had to see it to believe it. The product was up and running in 15 minutes, it’s set it and forget it, and gives me peace of mind."
"When we ran pen tests before Zero Networks, attackers would get in within 5 minutes. Now, they cannot move laterally. It's a superb tool."
"We were having problems stopping some of the traffic in a pen test. Once we had Zero Networks in play, we were able to stop these activities."
"After [implementing] Zero Networks, we were able to lock down endpoints both on the server and on the laptops, our attack surface has decreased... incredibly."
"To do this by GPOs would have taken 300% more effort… we needed one FTE just to do this before Zero. Now, we can easily share the work."
"I would highlight the simplicity of [Zero Networks], both in the implementation and in the policy solutions that it generates for you. It's like they say in my department – it's black magic."
