Akamai Guardicore Segmentation Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Security Analyst at a retailer with 5,001-10,000 employees4.0I use Akamai Guardicore Segmentation to isolate legacy systems unsupported by our EDR, and while it's reliable and scalable, updates lack consistency; its port/process control and Reveal Map are invaluable, though setup benefits from training and assistance.
Cybersecurity at Embracon5.0I use Akamai Guardicore Segmentation in a hybrid cloud to block ransomware and reduce lateral movement. Maps and network logs give great visibility and easy configuration. It’s stable, scalable, and well supported, but pricey; Kubernetes segmentation via SaaS is problematic.
Especialista em segurança da informação at a tech consulting company with 11-50 employees5.0I've used Akamai Guardicore Segmentation in AWS Kubernetes for over three years, valuing its visibility and ease of use in securing traffic. Integration with Active Directory and strong support have greatly improved our network security.
Information Security Consultant at a comms service provider with 11-50 employees3.5We chose Akamai Guardicore for data center segmentation as it allows us to retain IP addresses and offers excellent visibility without additional sensors. However, the inability to set separate rule sets for different interfaces needs improvement.
Senior Expert Enterprise Architecture at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees4.0I use Akamai Guardicore Segmentation in our production server environment. Its most valuable feature is visibility, but it falls short in properly integrating Kubernetes in the way we require. We haven't considered other solutions or cloud providers.
Solution Architecht at Inspira Enterprise3.5In the banking industry, I found Akamai Guardicore Segmentation valuable for its seamless integration and exceptional microsegmentation features, despite initial configuration complexity. Improvements are needed in incident tagging. Overall, I'd rate it highly for its maturity and customization capabilities.
Senior Security Consultant at a tech consulting company with 1,001-5,000 employees4.5I find Akamai Guardicore Segmentation's label-based micro-segmentation feature highly valuable. Although it lacks support for PAAC solutions and could benefit from enhanced integration, it surpasses alternatives like ColorTokens and Illumio in user-friendliness and feature offerings.
Specialist Master - Cyber Risk at a consultancy with 10,001+ employees3.0I found Akamai Guardicore Segmentation easy to deploy for server-to-server segmentation, offering real-time workflow visibility. However, it needs automation improvements to reduce script reliance and manage numerous policy rules efficiently, potentially enhancing operational speed and minimizing human error.
