Guardicore is a segmentation company, now part of Akamai since the late 2021 acquisition, aiming to displace legacy firewalls. The Guardiocre software-only approach is decoupled from the physical network to provide a faster alternative to firewalls. It is built for the agile enterprise that offers greater security and visibility in the cloud, data-center and endpoint.

Cisco Meraki MX Firewalls is a combined UTM and Software-Defined WAN solution. Meraki is managed via the cloud, and provides core firewall services, including site-to-site VPN, plus network monitoring.

Akamai Guardicore Segmentation

Network Security Software is dedicated to prevention / pre-empting and locating / containing an Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) through the study of recent behaviors and behavioral change of malicious entities and locating or anticipating, and reacting to, a similar pattern in an enterprise's own networks. The goal is to minimize exposure to APTs while also minimizing, to the extent desired, false positives (i.e. erroneously flagging benign behaviors as malicious).

A label is a snippet of metadata that is attached to a workload in your environment and provides context about that workload. But, why are labels so important? They are the only simple way to build a segmentation policy.

Labels help you better understand your data center and build a policy that suits your unique business requirements.

Unlike other vendors that provide a limited number of labels, Guardicore provides flexible labeling, to adapt to your specific organizational needs. 

Labels in Guardicore Centra™ are dynamic and can be applied to new assets as they spin up.

Network Security Software

Guardicore is used across the organization. It helps in micro-segmentation and lateral movement. We are using across it across environments like UAT, Production, Development, etc. Gives very detailed information on the network flows along with services and port numbers on which it is communicating. Architecture is designed in a very simplified manner to understand. Network logs are also easy to understand and troubleshoot if required.

Network traffic flow within environment of organization.
Creating maps for visibility and drill down is a key feature.
Labelling of servers can be done via running script.
Alerts can be sensitized for the traffic not seen.

Limited support to legacy infrastructure.
Integration with third party is a bit tedious.
Awaiting support for Kubernetes in the next version.

Blocking unwarranted traffic can really boost security of organization.
Alerts can be triggered to SIEM servers and help in timely action.
Need to be very careful before configuring and publishing block policies in the production environment.
