Securing Cloud-to-Cloud and Partner Traffic With FWaaS

Securing Cloud-to-Cloud and Partner Traffic With FWaaS

Traffic between clouds and with partners often goes uninspected. Placing FWaaS on the fabric closes that gap.

The gap

Security investment has focused on the internet perimeter. Meanwhile, more traffic flows privately between clouds, data centers and partners — often with little inspection.

Use the fabric

When these connections run through Peer1IX — via virtual circuits and a Cloud Router — they meet at a point where FWaaS can inspect them.

Policy per relationship

Define what each partner and environment may access. Allow only required applications and destinations.

Limit blast radius

If a partner is compromised, strict policy prevents the attacker from moving freely into your environments.

Visibility

Logs show exactly what crosses each boundary.
