Organizations today face a challenging environment as cybersecurity threats become more sophisticated and pervasive while the numbers of connected enterprise endpoints and the amount of data stored in the cloud grows exponentially. To maintain network security, a comprehensive security approach to both endpoint security and network security is essential to protect against and remediate cyberthreats.

Securing connections between users and business systems that lie beyond your firewall is essential and presents several challenges, particularly when users are working remotely, and their devices connect to networks beyond your organization’s control.

Until recently, many organizations have relied on a traditional “castle-and-moat” approach to network security where defenses surround the perimeter of the network, but once someone has crossed the threshold or tunneled in, they are completely trusted. Network security experts now understand that this method is not sufficient for several reasons:
• Use of cloud-based services and SaaS applications is increasing, resulting in an extended and dynamic network perimeter where much of your proprietary data is stored outside of your physical location and more of your critical IT services reside in the cloud.
• Sophisticated phishing and social-engineering attacks can exploit users already inside the network.
• Using public Wi-Fi access points exposes various types of man-in-the-middle attacks, even for TLS traffic.
• Business partners, contractors, and large numbers of remote employees need access to your organization's tools and data to do their jobs, even when they are connected to networks outside of your perimeter.
• Performance deteriorates when you send traffic destined for cloud and SaaS services through your organization’s firewall and network.

Security-conscious organizations are moving to a Zero Trust approach to modernize network security while simultaneously enhancing and improving the network experience for end users. Every user, endpoint, and network are assumed to be potentially hostile. In Zero Trust security, no user can access anything until they prove who they are, that their access is authorized, that they’re not acting maliciously, and that the Wi-Fi or cellular network they are connected to is not compromised.

The question for organizations is how to implement a Zero Trust network access model that is continuously secure but still allows users to access all of the resources they need without losing productivity though frequent authentication prompts and reduced connection speeds. BlackBerry’s answer to this question is CylanceGATEWAY.
