A few years ago, next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) came out of nowhere to become a network security staple. NGFWs followed in the footsteps of earlier firewalls—physical appliances installed inline to protect private networks from the public Internet. Cisco ACI, CloudPassage, Illumio, Unisys, vArmour, VMware NSX, etc.).

Microsegmentation like that provided by vendors CISCO and VMware state that traditional perimeter defenses akin to medieval castles walls no longer work. 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). It enables Internet at Scale.
