SDN makes possible the deployment and automation of a variety of security controls—like network segmentation, identity and access management and data loss prevention—by implementing them at the software (rather than hardware) level.
In this three-part technical guide, we look at other ways in which security professionals can now use SDN to improve enterprise security. Find out:
• Key tips on using SDN to lock down pesky mobile endpoints
• How SDN enables the security-enhancing process of micro-segmentation
• What a ‘no-touch’ approach to network administration has to do with SDN and security
