Today, CISA published the infographic, Layering Network Security Through
Segmentation<http://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/publications/layering-network-security-segmentation_infographic_508_0.pdf>,
to encourage organizations to implement network segmentation, an effective
security technique that divides an organization's network into multiple
segments (also called subnetworks). Properly implemented network segmentation
can limit or block an adversary's access or movement to devices, data, and
applications and restricts communications between subnetworks.
This infographic illustrates the level of effort needed for attackers to breach
and navigate an unsegmented network versus a highly segmented network. Its goal
is to encourage organizations to proactively implement network segmentation to
anticipate and prevent potential risks or vulnerabilities before they happen.
To learn more about how you can lower your organization's risk from malicious
cyber activity, view the infographic, Layering Network Security Through
Segmentation<https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/publications/layering-network-security-segmentation_infographic_508_0.pdf>.
CISA also encourages smaller organizations to view its Cyber
Essentials<https://www.cisa.gov/publication/cisa-cyber-essentials> and Supply
Chain Risk Management
Essentials<https://www.cisa.gov/publication/cisa-scrm-essentials> to develop an
understanding of where and how to start implementing organizational
cybersecurity practices.
