9 Tips for Cybersecurity with Network Segmentation

Description There is no security substitute for network segmentation. Locked doors behind locked doors discourage lazy threat actors and force them to look elsewhere. David Landsberger, Telecom Brokerage Inc. director of training and events, teamed up with CompTIA for a video series on security awareness training. As part of the series, he explains what network segmentation is and how it enhances network security.

In this video on network segmentation, you’ll learn the following:
- What is network segmentation?
- Why is network segmentation important to cybersecurity?
- How does network segmentation enhance cybersecurity?
- What areas of the network should be segmented?

As we say in IT, you don’t have to be faster than the lion. You just have to be faster than the other guy running away from the lion. Threat actors are notoriously lazy. They are looking for the least trained, lowest common denominator when it comes to end users.

Your network will never be bulletproof, but the more advocates you create, the more your risk factor goes down.
