"Securing OT with Network Microsegmentation"

Traditionally, Operational Technology (OT) networks have used Local Area Network (LAN) solutions, such as Virtual LAN (VLAN) on network switches, to segment flat networks and protect against lateral movement of malware throughout the network. While VLAN solutions can provide segmentation with a greater degree of flexibility, this level of segmentation is insufficient to secure these networks from advanced threats and lack visibility into application-level communication.

By implementing microsegmentation using Fortinet technologies, it is possible to implement a zero-trust security policy and to inspect all network traffic within a VLAN via a next-generation firewall (NGFW). This dramatically decreases the ability of malware to move laterally throughout the network. Microsegmentation provides OT networks with the security they need — without sacrificing network performance.
