The networks that enable today’s hyper-distributed enterprises face persistent and emerging security challenges. We need to take security, melting [it] into the fabric of the network, so that we have distributed enforcement points. One of those challenges is ransomware. What do we need to do in order to contain lateral movement?

The problem is that threat actors are able to get through the castle gates (firewalls) and once in, are able to evade the castle guards (IPS). The argument is that today with the expansion of n-tier distributed systems and massively parallel architectures, east-west traffic has increased exponentially. Microsegmentation will fix this.
